Ahadadream

NTS regular Ahadadream has been hosting a show since 22 October 2021. Ahadadream hosted a guest show on 26 August 2021. Ahadadream has been played over 50 times on NTS, first on 18 September 2015. Ahadadream's music has been featured on 52 episodes.

Ahadadream’s music is pure percussive energy; club belters full of skittish drum rolls that have become set staples for all your favourite DJs. With menacing, coiled energy waiting to be unfurled, his unique, drum-focused production draws influence from sounds across the UK, his homeland of Pakistan, the African Diaspora and beyond.

Most recently, his collaboration with Skrillex and Priya Ragu, TAKA, is laced with South Asian influence, as Ahadadream’s high-energy percussion balances Priya Ragu's R&B vocals. TAKA first went viral on Ahadadream’s debut Boiler Room, when Skrillex appeared on screen for the debut spin of their new track. Support from Peggy Gou, Fred Again, Four Tet, Dixon and Chris Lake followed, and on release day, BBC Radio 1 crowned TAKA their Hottest Record, Essential New Tune and Track ID; for the first time since Calvin Harris’ How Deep Is Your Love, in 2015.

BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong also chose Ahadadream as his Future Star for 2024, declaring him “a rhythm king and percussion specialist…currently a bit of a trade secret, talking about him is like talking about Bicep a few years ago. He’s about to blow this year.” While the Guardian declared Ahadadream one “One To Watch”, Beatport also tipped him for 2024, marking him as one of their NEXT Artists, and DJ Mag nominated him for their lauded Best DJ award.

Amidst a worldwide club tour, catch him at Coachella, Glastonbury, Junction 2, HARD, Lollapallooza, FVDED, DGTL, MELT and more this festival season.
