Sama' Abdulhadi – Live in Berlin

Sama’ Abdulhadi is a Palestinian DJ and producer known for techno and emotionally charged sets. Born in Jordan and raised in Ramallah, she first connected with music through hip-hop before diving into Beirut’s underground techno scene, where she developed her signature sound: “Berlin techno perceived in a Lebanese way.” She performs at Gretchen, Berlin, on 10 April 2026 at 21h59.

Her 2018 Boiler Room set in Ramallah, now surpassing 10 million views, brought wider attention to Arab techno culture. Since then, she has performed at festivals and institutions including Coachella, Glastonbury, Circoloco, Primavera, Fusion, Exit Festival’s Dance Arena, and BBC Radio 1’s Essential Mix.

Beyond the decks, Abdulhadi supports creative communities in Palestine and the Middle East. She founded Union in Ramallah to nurture emerging artists and launched initiatives such as Bring Back Beirut and Resilience, platforms dedicated to artistic solidarity and cultural advocacy.

She blends uncompromising techno with cultural activism.
