Listen to Hamdi Ryder’s Jacking Remix of Fairuz’s Iconic ‘Al Bousta’
The Tunisian’s take on the morning classic is something else.
Hamdi Toukbari aka Hamdi Ryder, has been a staple of and one of the main forces behind Tunisia’s bustling house music scene thanks to his Downtown Vibes party series and Eddisco record store that he launched alongside partner Aymen Ghannoudi. Apart from vitalizing the house culture in Tunisia, Hamdi is also a standout DJ/producer who, through his own platforms, has managed to propel himself as an artist, while playing countless intimate gigs abroad and around his home country.
