Aham Zahran Bio:
Adham Zahran isn’t just another name in house music, he’s one of those producers who seems born to it. Hailing from Egypt and growing up in Alexandria, young Adham began his musical journey listening to lots of minimal and house before learning production and music theory. His sound is steeped in an affection for house in all its shades and his musical influences resonate mainly from the Detroit culture and sound. Artists like Kyle Hall, Theo Parrish and Marcellus Pittman.
Adham’s catalogue of music already reads like a tour through the underground. From Galaktika and Manuscript to Moodmusic, Oh! Records, Neovinyl and a string of others, Zahran has stamped his mark across labels that thrive on quality. Now, with the Lunar City EP on Dealt With Records, he continues that trajectory with a body of work that’s both accomplished and adventurous.
His aesthetic breathes a natural affinity for ‘80s electronica, reimagined through a Detroit house kaleidoscope. Synths from his Nord Lead A1 keyboard to his Novation launch pad and xl controller, these instruments acts as conduits of alchemy, coaxing out textures that bring collective goosebumps to the room. On stage, he’s proved himself just as fluid, sharing booths from Cairo to London, Paris to Brussels, with festival slots at Sandbox and Some Weekend, plus turns alongside Claptone at Someday Block Party and at We Play House in Brussels. It’s a résumé that speaks of crossing borders and dancefloors form North Africa to Europe.
Love Connection EP
With Love Connection, Adham Zahran continues a journey defined by consistency, depth and quiet individuality. Over the years, his sound has evolved without chasing trends, anchored instead in a commitment to remaining both unique and unmistakably his own.
This latest EP for Dealt With Records is designed with deep afterhours in mind -those moments when the lights are low, the crowd is locked in, and mood outweighs everything else. It stands as a statement of pure Deep House: raw, analogue-leaning, harmonic and authentic. In three words, Adham remains unique, raw and deep – and Love Connection embodies that ethos in its most distilled form.
Track Descriptions
‘Logical Solution’ begins suspended in space. For the first ninety seconds, Adham invites you into a lucid drift – weightless, celestial, almost inter-dimensional in tone. It’s pure ambience, the kind that slows your breathing and stretches time itself. No urgency. No percussion. Just atmosphere unfolding in widescreen.
Then, almost imperceptibly, a pulse appears. Mechanical but warm. A subtle, robotic heartbeat emerging from the haze. Acid lines begin to seep through, softly distorted, as if playing from an old, worn-out speaker at the back of a forgotten warehouse. There’s nostalgia in that fuzz, it’s analogue emotion wrapped around digital precision.
When the rhythm finally settles, it does so with beautiful restraint. A bass drum. Maracas. Tambourine. Hand claps. Nothing more than what’s needed. It feels like future house imagined by artificial intelligence – not cold or clinical, but curious, yearning. The patterns repeat with coded insistence, like ones and zeros trying to become language. Beneath the circuitry, there’s something human reaching out. A track that doesn’t just process emotion – it searches for it.
‘Love Connection’ opens with a quiet optimism. There’s light in it from the outset – a gentle lift carried by a bubbling acid line that rises to the surface, glistens for a moment, then slips back beneath the groove. It never dominates. It breathes in and out, teasing — rather than demanding — attention.
The strings arrive like a memory from another lifetime – old-school, romantic, almost cinematic. You can picture it; grainy film stock, two lovers caught somewhere between euphoria and heartbreak, the kind of scene that lingers long after the credits. There’s texture in the nostalgia, a softness that contrasts beautifully with the track’s electronic spine.
If ‘Logical Solution’ felt like the first flicker of artificial awareness, ‘Love Connection’ is the next stage of evolution. The circuitry warms. The edges soften. There’s a sense of machine learning what it means to feel, not just to calculate. The groove carries hope, vulnerability, even tenderness. For a moment, suspended in its glow, you almost believe this robot can fall in love.
‘We Meet Again’ doesn’t rush to impress you. It draws you in. Adham opens with restraint and intent, building a track that feels less like a statement and more like a quiet understanding between artist and listener. It’s simple on the surface, but there’s weight beneath it – it has a slow-burn grandeur that reveals itself with every bar.
A warm, enveloping low-end cushions the senses, creating a calming, almost narcotic undercurrent. Then come the interspersed keys – bright, delicate, flickering in and out like distant city lights at 3am. The synth work swells and recedes with a natural looseness, like a late-night wander home in the rain after the pub, slightly off balance but always in control. Nothing is forced. Nothing is wasted. It’s atmosphere crafted with intention. Immersive, emotive, and quietly powerful.
