It’s worth the long wait, especially when it comes to Ambient, don’t rush it - it’s not fast food music. Here at Sofa Beats we love it slowly cooked and that’s what Christian Samsara gave us. Beside being a good friend he is a Danish-born DJ and avid records collector, embarked on his journey into electronic music during his early teenage years. It was during this time that he stumbled upon the ambient genre, which swiftly blossomed into his profound passion and eventually led him behind the decks.
Throughout the course of his DJ career, Christian has graced numerous festivals and events worldwide. Additionally, he has curated countless mixes for well-known podcast channels and shows such as Inveins, Campfire Stories by Silent Season, 꿈 Kkum, Orb Magazine, just to name a few, revealing his expertise in ambient, downtempo, IDM, and deep techno. His mixes are characterized by a unique blend of abstract cinematic soundscapes and intricate layers of organic textures.
In 2015, Christian Samsara became a part of Ultimae Records, his first compilation, "Isolated," was released in 2022 and he currently works on a second chapter to be released in 2024.

Let’s dive right in and have a wonderful summer out there 🤍

Faeyan is the Forest Psytrance project of Amine, a Moroccan music producer living in France.

His music's aim is to transport his auditorium on a deep  journey accross his inner mind's most twisted sonic explorations. Expect some unwelcoming beings opening their arms to guide you through profound atmospheres and disorienting grooves sprinkled with a subtle hint of both technological and ancient soundscapes.

He likes to take inspiration from his North African origins, and aims to give a new meaning to the mythical and historical tales of the Moroccan/African cultures and traditions, tangled up with supernatural entities and an array of imaginary creatures maliciously wandering accross his creations. 

Faeyan's goal remains to make you dance and smile, while taking you to unknown places and voids through both our world and other world's myths and histories.
