Moon Juice is the transnational coming together of three hidden jewels of contemporary underground music: Egyptian guitarist Cherif El Masri, known for his experimental noise project Tarkamt and as a member of Alan Bishop's Invisible Hands, and Swedish musicians Johan Graden (trading his piano for an arsenal of synthesizers) and Konrad Agnas (drums), who also plays in a trio with legendary free jazz/fourth-world saxophonist Christer Bothen (Archimedes Badkar, Don Cherry's 1970s ensembles, et al).

Along for the ride on "Fuck Synchronization" are Egyptian avant-chanteuse Nadah El Shazly, whose inimitable vocals grace over half of the album's tracks, the aforementioned sun city girl Alan Bishop, and singers Aya Hemeda and Omnia Hemeda - the latter three of which also share membership in The Invisible Hands.

Radio Khiyaban is proud to present a limited cassette version of the ensemble's debut album "Fuck Synchronization," previously self-released by the band on vinyl in 2021. While that edition is still available, our hope is that through this supplemental edition we can help raise attention to what was one of our favorite albums of the last couple of years and give this project the attention is truly deserves.
