đ„ After her beginnings in a jazz band and multiple interventions in the electronic scene in Tunis, the Tunisian producer and DJ moved to France in 2016. She signed on the Parisian label InFinĂ© and released two EPs, «Klabb» (2017) and «Dhakar» (2020) and an album entitled «Khonnar» (2018), acclaimed by several international media such as Pitchfork and The Guardian. Building off of the themes of identity, storytelling and experimentation on her critically acclaimed debut album, Khonnar (2018), Deena Abdelwahedâs new album âJbal Rrsasâ is the next chapter of a reimagining of what Arabic club music. Released in September (2023), her album spans seven tracks of bass, techno, and experimental music all within the different frames that Arabic dance music can offer. Her musical explorations are hopeful attempts to reclaim the elements that make up the diversity of Arabic music, drawing inspiration from electronic dance music influenced by Club music and the current avant-garde and experimental scene. She co-produced the track «an itch» that appears on Fever Rayâs latest album, «Plunge» and has produced several remixes of Bachar Mar-KhalifĂ©, Flore, Domenico Torti and Afrika Bambaataa, among others. She has also collaborated with the dance community, asked by Alexandre Roccoli to write and perform the music for Weaver in 2017. In Live set or DJ set, Deena Abdelwahed has performed on stage in several festivals and events of renown such as Sonar Festival twice, Les Dunes Electroniques in Tunisia, CTM Festival in Berlin, Dekmantel in Amsterdam, Dour festival or Mutek Festival in Mexico City and clubs such as Concrete and Dehors Brut in Paris, the Berghain in Berlin and Mutabor in Moscow, among others... She presented her new live Jbal Rrsas this year at Rewire, Sonar, Mutek MontrĂ©al, La Route du Rock and soon at Guess Who and La GaĂźtĂ© Lyrique. She is accompanied on stage by Khalil Epi (multi-instrumentist), Niculin Barandun (visual) and Pantxo Bertin (sound). We represent Deena for DE, NL and UK.
