Shovaav is the Hebrew word for Cheeky, Mischief, Fun

Hen Kalish, also known as Shovaav, has quickly emerged as a vibrant force in New Zealand's underground music scene over the past few years. His contributions range from meticulous DJ sets to event production and engaging live percussion shows, infusing the dancefloor with powerful and colorful energy.

Shovaav has connected with audiences at various festivals, including Shipwrecked Festival, Spirit Festival, Dimension Festival, Abracadabra New Zealand Festival, and Naked in the Trees Festival, drawing from his passion for movement and community.

Hailing from Israel, a cultural melting pot, Shovaav’s musical journey began at an early age. Influenced by a blend of Middle Eastern, Funk, and Electronic music, he cultivated a lively and eclectic musical style that resonates through his performances.

Now residing in Auckland, New Zealand, Shovaav has built a reputation for delivering unforgettable sets that blend familiar classics with contemporary sounds from around the globe, enhanced by his distinctive live percussion and exotic musical elements.

Damian has brought his sound to Human Sense events, blending organic, deep and progressive house with touches of melodic techno, with a focus on connection and atmosphere. He’s known for weaving in “twinkly bits” to his progressive sets.

In April 2023, he played as a guest DJ at HeyDJ AU after placing in The DJMixtape competition the year before. He also performed for 17,000 runners at the Blackmores Sydney Running Festival in 2019.

While living in London, Damian played at Club Libertaire and Dust Bar, and contributed to the house night Lopsided. His international reach includes a guest set on MC Energy’s A State of Dance in Auckland, and a performance at The Loft UTS in Sydney.

Influenced by The Shamen, Fatboy Slim and The Chemical Brothers, his sets blend storytelling and emotion with carefully built energy and progression.

Outside music, he works as Digital Media Director for the Cause Film Festival, helping filmmakers and charities grow their reach.
