MAWADα is a hybrid production and DJing project of Beirut based translator, Rayyan Abdelkhalek. It explores voice, ritual and community-based healing. Born in recall to the Beirut underground movements in the early 2000s that revolved around discreet yet highly inclusive acid, hardcore and experimental parties in-and-around the city, MAWADα’s practice is ever-evolving.

Through bringing together different elements from techno, prayer, noise, pop and club cultures, MAWADα seeks to instigate and nurture collective affect through music. 

et aliae presents 7th Heaven: an hour of chaos, bliss and euphoria; serving up experimental dancefloor cuts, unknown gems and more.
