Nourey & FOSTER – Meant To Be (Jaytech Remix) (@nourey)

Egyptian-born, Boston-based musician Nourey is a rising star on the label. First picking up the guitar at ten years old, Nourey turned to music production; releasing on Elliptical Sun Recordings and AVA. Her unique blend of trance, house and jazz caught the ear of Above & Beyond, who played her debut single ‘Skylar’ on Group Therapy Radio in 2019. She soon crossed over to Anjunabeats, remixing Gabriel & Dresden and releasing ‘In Motion’ (with OLAN) and ‘All Night’ (with ZOYA).

Last year, Nourey made her live debut at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy Weekender festival in July 2022, earned a coveted spot on 1001Tracklist’s ‘Future Of Dance’ music in 2022, and dropped her debut EP on Anjunabeats, the ‘Meant To Be EP’.

The five-track EP showcases Nourey’s diverse sound and influences, spanning progressive trance, ambient, deep house and breakbeat. Las Vegas-based singer/songwriter FOSTER also features, lending her vocals to ‘Meant To Be’ and ‘Free’.

Alongside her music career, Nourey is also a postdoctoral research fellow and manager of the Climate Change and Cities Program at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She’s worked closely with AnjunaHQ on sustainability initiatives, including at Group Therapy Weekender, and has multiple academic awards and honours for her research.

With over 40 releases across Anjunabeats and Anjunadeep, Jaytech (or ‘Jimbo’ as we affectionately know him) is a long-term friend of the Anjunafamily. He honed his ear as a label A&R for Anjuna HQ in the late 2000s. Now, he’s unearthing new talent on his long-running Jaytech Music mix show and sharing his wealth of production experience on YouTube.

Jaytech has long been a part of the fabric of Anjunabeats – he has toured globally with A&B and was a studio engineer for the label. He has since gone to play Electric Daisy Carnival, Tomorrowland, Electric Zoo and more.

Nourey & FOSTER ‘Meant To Be’ (Jaytech Remix) is out now on Anjunabeats.
