Select 388: Mixed by Hey-D

This week’s Select series features a special set from Egyptian selector Hey-D, recorded live during her Sandbox Festival 2026 opening set at the Beach Hut stage. The set moves between deep house, indie dance, and Afro-infused rhythms, layered with soulful vocal chops and progressive house grooves that evoke the early-morning energy of Sandbox’s beach days. It features an eclectic selection of tracks, including Barry Can’t Swim’s ‘Kimbara’, Reirei’s ‘Azul’, and Maxi Meraki’s ‘About Yourself’.

Over the past two years, Hey-D has been grooving dancefloors at some of Cairo’s major clubs with her playful and uplifting sets, known for often blending progressive beats with Afrocentric vibes and melodic rhythms.
