"Exploring this theme of journeying beyond our strict sense of self" 

Khalaf & Eissa have joined together to create a work that works well past the summation of it’s parts.
Spanning deep to tech house with an ethereal techno thrown in for good measure, 
the cairo based duo believe that the most beautiful artificial thing in the entire universe is music﻿, from this point of view, they start narrating cyclical glorious myths that consist of a sequence of perfectly composed euphoric built-ups and captive drum kicks throughout this poetic journey.

God bless house music.

Played live on Sunday 4th Sep 16, at the House Residence.

Halloween Party - Khalaf Live @SeaGull Yacht

A slow interpretation for two tracks that sits nicely equidistant between ZHU’ solo work and the excellent Nils Frahm piano experience that fits seamlessly.

The artwork i did specially for this one was to vividly symbolize the lyrics of the original track by ZHU, which to me, was about nothing but your fading dreams that came true for a moment then vanished into the haze of subconscious that keep coming every now and then, and before you knew it, and not in the blink of an eye, but slowly, day by day, hour by hour, it fades away into the deepest abyss of oblivion. 

so it deserved the unforgiving drum rhythms and slower heavy bass-lines to symbolize this meaning.

Palm Of My Hands (Khalaf Astral - Dreams Interpretation)

"Those who don’t build must burn"

I'm a music curator, a designer and a creator with a bachelor degree in mechanical engineering, i gather and hunt electronic and dark melodic techno gems but every now and then i might deliver or collaborate in a mix that could save someone's life one day.

I decided to approach playlist creation in a similar way as I would in one of my motion and graphic designs or the way i would in optimizing an automotive engine. These playslists and mixes you are finding in my timeline are the background score of my life, and the ending credits as well, each playlist, born and survived a whole semester or two, so before entering, know well that these are the holy lands that survived the martyrdom, blood, sweat and the endless sleepless nights with me.
