Returning to Australia next year, British-Pakistani producer, DJ, label head, promoter, and curator Ahadadream is at the forefront of global dance music culture. His multi-faceted approach to music has seen him dominate the European club circuit for nearly a decade, now sharing stages with Skrillex and Fred again.., co-founding artist-led South Asian initiative Dialled In, all while releasing whopping UK bass bangers that send dancefloors flying.
Fresh from a hit Boiler Room in London, Ahadadream spins UK techno and bass music cosily alongside polyrhythmic tabla, dancehall, baile, amapiano, drawing lines between each genre as he absorbs the sounds of the world and presents them with his own flair. His eclectic approach to DJing is no surprise, given his eclectic approach to the music industry: a promoter platforming South Asian DJs with club night No ID and festival Dialled In, label head of More Time Records alongside Sam Interface, and a masterful producer in his own right, Ahadadream’s sense of the intersection of music and culture is clear. Organising the first Boiler Room in Pakistan in 2022, his background is as important as his attention to the disparate, ever growing UK dance scene Ahadadream calls home.
Ahadadream is more than a musician, but a curator and ambassador of the culture. His sheer dedication to music, globally, and its intersection with heritage, genre, history, and the future marks him a true champion of his community whose plural approach will undoubtedly see him build platforms for the years to come. Come see Ahadadream further make music history this March.
