October 10 saw the official launch of Dandin.me, a novel independent platform whose founders are based in Egypt. Abdel-Rahman Hussein, one of the people behind Dandin.me, explains what it aims to achieve:
The rationale behind it was our desire to create an audio platform that would manage to encompass a wide array of emerging talent in the region, in their respective arenas. It is a platform for expression, in whatever guise, and the flip side of that is the hope that this expression finds an engaged audience via the platform.
