RA.1000 continues with the pride of Palestine's techno scene, Sama' Abdulhadi.
What makes the sound of resistance? For Palestinian DJ and producer Sama' Abdulhadi, it's the freedom to explore her artistic expression in all its authenticity and complexity. What stands out in her mix for our 1000th celebration is defiant energy, the kind that galvanises more than just dance floors.
Born in Ramallah but a student of Beirut's underground scene, Abdulhadi plays charging, self-assured techno, as calibrated for basement parties as for conquering festival main stages.
Her sets are powerful journeys through moods, tempos and stimuli, connected by a deep sense of love. It's a love we've explored in a cover story, a film—and now, one of our ten RA.1000 mixes.
