Mixes // DJ Sets

📻 From Lahore to London, did my debut mix on @ntsradio which includes music from friends, influences, and myself.

The manifestation of playing on NTS 1 happened spontaneously while attending the 'Bridging the Gap' workshop in Lahore — Nabihah Iqbal floated the idea of covering for her residency, and it only made sense to reconstruct my closing set for her debut DJ set in Pakistan last year at District 19, Karachi.

A bit different from her usual crate digging and ethnomusicologist perspective on music, yet it preserves the magic of the night we shared the stage for the first time,

NTS 1 | Haider Uppal (Closing Set for Nabihah Iqbal)

Nabihah Iqbal has announced a remix package for her critically acclaimed album, ‘DREAMER’, featuring some of her favourite musical contemporaries. The remix EP features tracks by Haider Uppal, Slowspin (ft. Zak Khan), SIDD and Sijya, all of whom Nabihah has performed alongside, making this release feel like another iteration of their collaborations. As well as the four remixes of tracks from DREAMER, the EP also features a bonus track courtesy of Berlin-based producer Frank Wiedemann, with his take on 'Zone 1 to 6000', the standout track from Nabihah's previous album 'Weighing of the Heart'. Each remix is steadfast and uncompromising with a distinct mode of expression - an electric display of each artist’s craftsmanship. 

The EP opens with Haider Uppal's remix of ‘Sky River’. With a slow, gradual build, the fiery tune erupts with shuffling drums and a propulsive beat. Uppal, an emerging multidisciplinary artist in electronic music, hailing from Lahore, Pakistan, whose music productions have already captured global attention, has created a remix which has an agile blend of house and bass, which would be at home at any nightclub around the world. 

On the task of remixing Sky River, Haider Uppal remarks, 'A dream house addition to a dreamer — this was the track I resonated most with when asked to remix; my goal was not to break Nabihah’s vision but rather to build upon the feeling of the original.'

Modulo, Haider Uppal - Violet Woods (Soela Remix)

Full recording of my closing set on @abracadabra TV Twitch after Mary Droppinz  – we had a magical 23rd bday bash together virtually. 🔮✨ The mix itself is meaningful, spontaneously built from music I've been collecting over years - since it was a post b-day celebration, ended up playing some timeless jams too. This opportunity was an amazing b-day gift from my homie @saqibmalik, and the legend herself @blondish 

Recorded using Allen & Heath Xone:92 & TRAKTOR X1.

"'Having briefly explored house and techno music during a stint in Detroit, Haider’s star is quickly rising as one of the most promising electronic music producers coming out of Pakistan.' @moodroomcollective

Haider’s approach to music is one of constant evolution and exploration with many musical facets ranging from dubby and textured to more spacious and groovy productions, focused on delivering intricate and deep experiences.

The young producer from Pakistan has connected with the world, as his original productions and collaborative works get released on record labels based in Canada, England, Germany and Portugal."

DREAMER (Remixes)

Sky River (Haider Uppal Remix)

While crate digging I stumbled upon this 💎 bollywood disco classic by chance, and felt like making an edit to play in my DJ sets (though I never inclined to remix my South Asian roots, but inspired by a dear friend it flowed).

@saqibmalik and I make a great team, as in the past, and we ended up funking it up together without breaking the authenticity of the 1987 production. Old is gold.

Putting this out on valentines as life really is a dance; hear it out and you could feel the same way. - 14/2/24

Dance Dance (Haider Uppal & Saqib Edit) (Free Download)

This mix is a testament to my versatility, exploring different shades of house music (and some breaks) while keeping the energy and flow in check.

The first hour is a live recording from a gig in my home city, Lahore. The energy from that night inspired me to expand the mix beyond a 3-hour journey featuring incredible music from friends, inspirations, and myself. It's a dive into expression of deep feels and sonic textures.

The biggest compliment came from chief YokoO, who called it a "nice journey and a great showcase of SATYA music." That means a lot.

To conclude this musical narrative, I chose an older remix of Glass Animals—a song that served as my gateway into the world of deep house. Playing it here is both an homage to my younger self who dared to dream and a celebration of ten transformative years immersed in the magic of music.

> @haideruppal
> @talal_lostboy

With their debut single ‘Get Real’ included on a feature last year by Resident Advisor, and a recent remix on Pablo Bolivar’s house and techno imprint, ‘Seven Villas’, Haider Uppal and Lost Boy team up as a duo in 2025.

For them, house music is a way to stay rooted within their shared cultural heritage. Built through the sonic textures and emotions borrowed from their roots, they reinterpret South Asian beats through an electronic framework.

Their research focused thematic EP weaves together archives of raags, sitar motifs, and poetic rhythms. One of the tracks samples a raag once performed live by Ravi Shankar in 1974, but its tone and phrasing were reshaped to create something magical yet simple, letting the Sitar evoke emotion. The B-side by Lost Boy weaves in recordings of the great singer Mehdi Hassan into a sonic journey which resonates emotionally. The two songs were meant to be packaged together. Rounding the release is a bonus track from them which fits melodic dancefloors around the world.

Haider and Lost Boy focus to reshape how electronic music connects with South Asian culture through their body of work.
