Hamdi Ryder, biographie

Born in the heart of Tunis, Hamdi Toukabri, AKA Hamdi RydEr, has quickly established himself as one of the most important and influential artists in the local underground scene.

Initially inspired by urban music, his first productions were Hip Hop and beat projects. After a number of successful collaborations, his passion for grooves led him to explore other genres. Ultimately arriving at House, he’s been steady releasing tracks since 2010, including remix work for artists like Joss Moog and Hector Moralez, among others.

With regular support from heavyweight icons like DJ Sneak, Phil Weeks, and Mark Farina, Hamdi RydEr was quick to become an underground favorite.

Hamdi’s passion for all things underground would eventually drive him to create a platform for other like-minded artists to express themselves. The result: Downtown Vibes (DV) - a local collective established by himself and a group of close friends. Its mission: organize underground events, provide a stage for Tunisian talent, and maintain a well-structured community for arts and urban culture. Currently, DV hosts 2 regular events: “Secret Vibes” and “Somewhere in Downtown". Always located in secret venues, the parties host local and international DJs, VJs, artists, and dancers to create the perfect underground vibe.
