TUSHEN RAÏ & WARUM

TUSHEN RAÏ & WARUM

Some sets don’t aim for peak time.

They bend it, stretch it, until the dancefloor loses all sense of time.

Tushen Raï & Warum operate in the in-between — where Weird Wave brushes against ’90s UK rave, where dub techno sweats through unstable acid, where progressive trance dissolves into humid space disco. Nothing is fixed. Everything is written with the floor. A fragile balance between the strange and the obvious. Digger culture at the core: rare records, obscure pressings, anonymous tapes. They mix like cartographers of hidden territories — one eye on the margins, the other on the

bodies. Residents of Le Rex Club in Paris and Le Sucre in Lyon, their sound travels worldwide — from Bar Americas in Guadalajara to Womb in Tokyo, from Kaputt in Bogotá to Razzmatazz in Barcelona, from Kabarett in Haifa to Tempio del Futuro Perduto in Milan, as well as festivals like Futur Festival in Turin and Fusion Festival in Germany. Representing Hard Fist Records, a platform for sonic exploration with over 26 EPs released on vinyl and digital, they perform like two archivists on acid — summoning ghosts to make them dance.

Not nostalgia. Persistence. A continuum of research in service of the dance.
