About
NYC genre-blending force: Jungle, Techno, and Baile Funk fire.
shekdash (Shek-Ahmed Jarrett) is a NYC-native DJ, producer, and photographer deeply embedded in the city's creative fabric. Raised in the East Village nightlife scene (his family owns the legendary Nublu), shekdash brings an authentic, vinyl-focused approach to the booth. His sound is a high-octane collision of Jersey Club, Jungle, Baile Funk, and Hard Techno, described as "raw and built for the dance floor." This genre-blurring style has garnered support from global heavyweights like Skrillex, Diplo, and VTSS, leading to performances at major international platforms including Boiler Room, The Lot Radio, and Rinse FM. Blending his background in fashion and visual art with a deep knowledge of club music history, shekdash represents the cutting edge of New York's new generation, delivering sets that are frantic, global, and undeniably cool.
