Fafi Abdel Nour

Billing himself as a 'house music historian', Fafi Abdel Nour has become a treasured regular fixture of Dekmantel events. His repeat bookings speak to his ability to surprise us every time by going further and further into unexpected realms, whether that means leaning on synth-soaked, proggy deep cuts or rugged Motor City beatdowns. There's a peak-time rush to the widescreen approach Abdel Nour takes to DJing, but he can style it out from explosive peaks to the sweetest, deepest troughs along that journey. That's why we can't get enough of him.
