“Tunisian Producer and DJ, Deena Abdelwahed arrives in France after having made her arms on the Tunis stage along with World Full of Bass, Boom Bass Tech and Arabstazy Collective. Only novelty and daring count for a place in her DJ sets, made her at the forefront of subcultures. Cited as one of best acts in Sonar Festival 2017 by NY Times, or more recently, her mix for FACT magazine was picked as best of August Mixes by Pitchfork Magazine. She was booked by numerous clubs and festivals all around the world like Berghain club, La Concerte club, Mutek Festival in Mexico, Unsound Festival, Mutabor club during RBMA Moscow… to name a few.
As a producer, she won the open call for radio creation by CTM Berlin Festival and performed “All Hail Mother Internet“ Live for 2016’s edition. Her first EP “Klabb“, released in early 2017 on InFiné, was met with critical acclaim from the blogosphere and electronic media. That same year, she co-produced the track «An Itch» from Fever Ray’s second album «Plunge». Deena’s first album ‘Khonnar’ was released in November 2018 and she tours KHONNAR LIVE until today. In January 2020, she released a new EP entitled Dhakar and the music video of « Insanity » is finally available on YouTube!”
