A Journey into the heart of electronic music

Hear made movement his motto. The movement of sound. The notes of his music are moving, they travel through time and space. A bit like him. HEAR was born in Lebanon, studied in Canada, lives in Berlin and speaks French. He followed classes in movie production, geology, modern dancing and space travel. He shot movies – several remarkable short films – before becoming a DJ and an electronic music composer.

This passion is expressed in places and situations that tell of the man’s curiosity: a circular apartment providing almost professional acoustics; marathons of sound where music is played non-stop over several days; music played by minus 30 degrees Celsius or on rooftops or boats in New York; recording sessions in a former Stasi building or in clubs in Berlin or in San Francisco.

Hear, is always on the move, he is driven by life – a nice recipe for creation. Already 12 years as a DJ, an album out on Archipel and several singles, a vinyl with Move D, upcoming Records from Dream Scoring, his collaboration as Dream Scoring with Hakim Murphy, music with Classical pianist Alexandre Solopov and loads of upcoming projects. HEAR is moving fast, taking sound along with him.
