With his new album Erbil, released in April, the Syrian synth magician is once again ready to spread joy on international dance floors. The album was highly praised by the music magazine mxdwn, which writes, among other things:

“At its essence, Souleyman has crafted a body of work that serves as a powerful reminder of why he has indelibly influenced the dance world.”

With his distinctive mix of dabke and pulsating electronic beats, Omar Soleyman fuses heritage with modernity on the global club scene.

The fast-paced electronic bangers are peppered with Middle Eastern tonal scales and delivered with such nerve and presence that Omar Souleyman has toured the world, working with the likes of Four Tet, Modeselektor and Diplo, and playing festivals like Roskilde Festival, Bonnaroo and Glastonbury.
