Edward - Ohm Hourani

Friday, January 12, 2024 Doors 10PM Advance Tickets on sale now. Gilles Aiken, better known as Edward, is a Berlin-based DJ and producer producing tracks with a dark and surreal club sound aesthetic. With a strong interest in groove, his immersive sets border on the cosmic, lending a unique depth to his performances. Edward's techno is inspired by the style favored in the Berlin scene, peppered with metallic and organic percussion creating an amalgam of sound that is impossible to ignore. Oscillating between club music and sci-fi inspired sounds, his dj sets are progressive, moving from a psychedelic state of mind to unique and transcendent experiences. Although he works primarily from house and techno templates, Aiken has plowed through countless old records to arrive at what we hear today. Aiken's music is largely based on samples and edits that he playfully manipulates to create a mix of psychedelic and ambient house. It is this uniqueness that has made him an important pillar of German labels such as Frankfurt's Die Orakel and Weimar's esteemed Giegling team.

Impassioned to inject intellectual material into the electronic music scene, OHM HOURANI continues to challenge his understanding of sound.

Hourani's playful enthusiasm manifests itself in his live sets and DJ sets that have piqued the curiosity of progressive-minded music enthusiasts and critics alike. His compositions showcase an infusion of organic sounds and live recordings with intricate sound engineering. // Club Level // Edward (Giegling | Berlin) soundcloud.com/edward Ohm Hourani (ANOMA / Interpret | Montreal) soundcloud.com/ohm-1 // Green Room // SPRKLBB soundcloud.com/sprklbb Isaiah Sanders soundcloud.com/isaiah-sanders-forrest Keenan Orr soundcloud.com/keenanorrdc // Flash Bar // Fish House Funk soundcloud.com/fishhousefunk x_xtra soundcloud.com/x_xtra Spud soundcloud.com/anticanthem _________________________________ ⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶ Flash Safe Space Policy ⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶ Flash stands firmly against non-consensual behavior, discrimination, harassment or harm of any kind.
