Born and raised in Egypt’s crowded and disordered capital Cairo, Assyouti is among his generation’s most distinct DJs and producers. Juggling hypermodern bass mutations, warped dancefloor snaps and percussive club experiments, he draws energy from the chaotic stimulus he grew up engulfed by, routing it into refined productions and elegant selections.
Since 2021 he’s been based in Berlin and has quickly gained local traction, appearing at venues like the legendary club Tresor, RSO, OHM, and Trauma Bar. He has also performed at renowned music festivals like Berlin’s CTM and Uganda’s Nyege Nyege. In 2024, he founded the No_Stone event series that he runs with Barcelona based DJ/Selector Jehia.
Assyouti is an artist of the SHAPE+ platform for innovative music and interdisciplinary art, co-funded by the European Union and Pro Helvetia.
