moktar is in ascendance. The Egyptian-Australian producer creates kaleidoscopic and compelling music, medleys of breakbeats, Middle Eastern instrumentation, and skittering techno. His two EPs for Mall Grab’s Steel City Dance Discs are deadly, and have been ruling big rooms and sweaty basements alike. Plus, he is an agile and impactful deejay. Just ask Mr. Scruff – Moktar’s very first show in his new home of London was a back-to-back with the dance icon. His debut Aotearoa performance will be a transcendant tour de force.
