Somme Farris is a DJ, event curator, and multidisciplinary artist whose sets connect textural, percussive, raw grooves with Middle Eastern rhythms and sounds, shaped by his Syrian and Iraqi heritage and more than a decade of digging and dancefloor experience. Beyond the booth, he’s the founder of Phact (a sound system–centered rave series built as an alternative to over-commercialized club formats) and co-founder of Alef Sound, a project designing and renting sound systems to strengthen local scenes. His recent appearances span London (Fold, Corsica Studios, Egg, The Cause, Pickle Factory, The Standard), plus dates in São Paulo and Tel Aviv, bringing a focused, physical energy that stays groove-led while keeping the details upfront.
