Walashi

A sound explorer, music producer, live performer, and DJ, hailing from Syria, who has made significant contributions to the local music scene. Walashi is inspired to fuse diverse musical influences, experimenting with unconventional sounds, collaborating with art and cultural collectives, and has been actively involved in using music as a tool for social change and meditation. As being, so non-being. As nothing, everything. Walashi believes in the healing power of music because "Music spirals through different endless dimensions and realms, connecting us to our all-pervading universal essence as one. Since the beginning of time music is here for communal or personal entertainment, communication, and rituals. Music can impact every being and every cell, it can change one's emotions and perspective, it has the ability to create an everlasting memory, it invites us to enter a dynamic state. Music is a tool to enjoy, to express, to let go and destress whether it is through dancing, listening, or playing."
