The Dwarfs of East Agouza is a trio formed in 2012 in Cairo's Agouza district, consisting of Maurice Louca (Alif, Bikya), Sam Shalabi (Land of Kush, Shalabi Effect), and Alan Bishop (Sun City Girls, The Invisible Hands, Alvarius B.). The members, who lived in the same apartment building, came together to create a unique sound characterized by instrumental improvisational loops of percussion, drawing influence from Krautrock and free jazz, among other styles.
