Honoured to be interviewed by @jasminebager for @arabnews . We’ve been chatting for months, and somehow, those chats unlocked memories I didn’t even know I had. Turns out, I’ve got a very vivid memory after all.
What makes this extra special is that 22 years ago, I’d go to Friday prayer with my dad, and afterwards, he’d give me 10 riyals to pick up a few newspapers — one of them was always Arab News. Never in a million years did I think I’d end up in it.
And to Jasmine — after all those long conversations, I’m pretty sure we’re friends now. Thank you for capturing my story so beautifully.
Feeling so grateful to be named one to watch for 2025 by @mixmag . It’s such a lovely way to reflect on the last 10 years and all the amazing moments along the way.
Thank you to everyone I’ve worked with this year – your support and collaboration mean the world wallah.
Special thanks to my wife and kids for always being in my corner. Big shout out to @bekahmolony and @genofeves@glistenpr
Looking forward to what’s ahead in 2025. Big love to all who’ve been part of this. ❤️ I can't wait to share some big news with you all and can't wait to be part of @beyondthepaleie as my first festival announcement of 2025
Yallah!!!!
Free Palestine, free Sudan, free, free Syria, —freedom and justice for all oppressed people everywhere.

Haven’t seen you all in a minute and I can’t wait to celebrate @klubsukar first birthday next week with @lionessa666 and our local residents in @yamamoritengu !
Big love to everyone who’s been there from the very beginning. You’ve shaped this into what it is.
Shouts to @nooriyah._ , @saliahgram@cheb.runner , and now Lionessa for being part of the story so far. This night wouldn’t be what it is without you.
And to my favourite residents, @dj.karmawi , @sahanasridharrr , @ash.andabout , @saghafakir . Always holding it down. Looking forward to our boy @hxmzabana making his Sukar debut.
Next week is going to be bananas.
One year in and it’s only getting started.
Big love to @tracychahwan for always bringing what’s in my head to life with her art!

Klub Sukar turns 1. Let’s celebrate 1st of May in @yamamoritengu
One year in and every night has sold out before doors. Still pinching myself. I couldn’t have done this without all of you.
Special thank you to the mailing list crew for selling out the early birds so quickly.
For the 1 year anniversary I’m buzzing to welcome an artist I’ve been a fan of for time.

P.S shoutout to @tracychahwan for the best posters for Klub Sukar
I’m honestly struggling to find the words right now.
The constant stream of bad news has been heavy. Watching everything unfold from afar, carrying the fear that people you love could be hurt, it sits in the chest and doesn’t really leave. It’s a kind of anxiety that follows you through the day.
I pray for calmer days. For protection. For every family. For every individual, no matter where they are.
For now, I need to step back from Instagram. It’s clear that staying plugged in is affecting me more than I realised.
First Klub Sukar of the year and what a night. Another one completely sold out and the energy was next level at @yamamoritengu
Cheb Runner absolutely smashed it and our residents kept the floor moving all night. To everyone who packed the place out and danced their socks off, thank you. Without you there would be no Klub Sukar.
If you missed this one, you missed a proper moment. Make sure you are there for the next one because these nights are only getting sweatier and sweeter.
See you after Ramadan!
We’re bringing our favourite artists and selectors to District Towers
British-Lebanese DJ and Producer, @saliahgram dropped in for our own personal set after her Dublin debut at @klubsukar . We had to get a back-to-back going with homegrown SWANA selector, @moving0still .

This one’s been a long time coming.
13th Feb. Tengu. Klub Sukar.
Tickets are flying so don’t sleep on it.
Let’s gooo 🌪️🌪️🌪️🌪️
Well well well… here we go again.
Still buzzing after New Year’s honestly. Three sold-out nights, Tengu turned upside down, and it all just felt right.
Delighted to finally share the poster for round four and announce the headliner: Cheb Runner. I’ve been a fan of his for years and still am. Proper DJ, constant bangers o’clock, and always pushing his sound forward.
Klub Sukar keeps growing and it’s because of you lot. Same energy, same intention. See you on the floor ❤️🔥
