Bio
Among the generation of rising producers/DJs in the Egyptian scene, Assyouti has emerged as one of its most distinct and unapologetic voices, standing out due to his high-energy aggression and versatile track selection spanning the leftfield of club music. Born and raised in Egypt's crowded and disordered capital Cairo, Assyouti is among his generation's most distinct DJs and producers. Juggling hypermodern bass mutations, warped dancefloor snaps and percussive club experiments, he draws energy from the chaotic stimulus he grew up engulfed by, routing it into refined productions and elegant selections. Since 2021 he's been based in Berlin and has quickly gained local traction, appearing at venues like Tresor, RSO, OHM, and Trauma Bar. He has also performed at renowned music festivals like Unsound, Berlin Atonal, CTM and Uganda’s Nyege Nyege. In 2024 he also founded the No_Stone event series that he runs with Barcelona based DJ/ Selector Jehia. His debut EP "Shakhrama" was released in 2022 on High Digital, and highlights his wide- eyed and borderless musical interests, followed by an even stronger second EP on Shepard Tone in which he explores his own take on Jungle and Breakbeat mayhem. Noisy and at times aggressive, his productions melt visceral but challenging rhythms with distorted vocal and drum samples, processed beyond recognition into buzzsaw post-punk sonics. As a DJ, he balances his love of the hardcore continuum with sounds from the world's furthest recesses, and is equally eager to build supercharged frenetic feverisms to energized dancers as he is guiding them through an introspective emotional hypnosis, usually weaving in and out of both creating a sense of disorientation fueled by collective energy & emotion.
