The album was received with huge success, selling in over 95 countries worldwide, as Virgin Megastores, iTunes [1], Amazon, etc. Following his success on his début album he opened a music distributional company named Maqam Company for Music Production. He distributed music for various musical giants in the Arab world such as Naseer Shamma, Hazem Shaheen, Mohamed Mohsen, Shady Al-gendy and various other artists.
In 2013 Saif took over Bedaya studio in Nasr City, Cairo he redecorated and renamed it OneTake- Studio [1]. Saif believes in a concept by recording in “one take” to reach perfection and to make the musician use all of his resources to master the piece in one take. This is to create the illusion of a one shot opportunity for the musician, so as to achieve maximal determination.
