Moroccan and Amazigh artist, originally from the Souss region in the Middle Atlas, An\u00efa (“silent music” in Amazigh) discovered Djing in 2015 and was self-taught with the turntable emulator Traktor. Touching her first turntable in October 2018, An\u00efa quickly made a name for herself on the growing Moroccan scene. Bridging multiple styles, she mixes electro-robotic sounds, acid basslines, breaks and atmospheric melodies. Ranging from rock\/metal to amazigh music, acid and post punk, she describes her musical universe as “a trip into space” composed of sonic emotions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now in a phase of composition to produce her own sound, An\u00efa has delved into her large musical collection to concoct a tailor-made selection. Starting with bewitching downtempo, she pays tribute to several great artists of Amazigh music such as the great voice of the late Mohamed Rouicha and his loutar playing, the Kabyle singer Majid Soula, or the group Amira Saqati who mixed ra\u00ef, gnaoua and Berber music. Referring to a part of the Amazigh cultural heritage in techno, dance or ambient remixes, An\u00efa offers us a journey strewn with breakbeats, derboukas and gnaoua songs. From the Moroccan desert, through Algeria and even Egypt with Simon Philip Kamel, the Moroccan DJ takes us to a cosmic and hypnotic plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
