On capturing and recording this album in front of the pyramids in Giza, Fatma said "The pyramids are behind me, we’re bathed in the glow of the setting sun, I’m here, singing: an experience like no other I’ve ever had. Performing in front of the pyramids, there were really distinctive acoustics, something I had never experienced before in my life. The sound was everywhere, in the sand, in the wind… I was encircled by the wind, and my voice became part of the wind, inspired by the whole setting, by this place that has seen so much, experienced so much."
