Sultan

From the desert heat of his country of origin to the winter rigours of Canada, Sultan has travelled a road quite out of the ordinary. In the past few years, the artist has established himself as one of the most innovative and respectable DJs and producers in the electronic dance scene.

Sultan has had releases on various labels including Deep Dishs Yoshitoshi label and John Digweed's Bedrock Breaks Label, as well as several compilations appearances including Global Underground 25: Toronto mixed by Deep Dish, Tiestos In Search of Sunrise 4, Dave Seamans Renaissance Masters, Deep Dishs George Is On which features Deep Dish vs Dire Straits Flashing for Money(Sultan Club/Radio Mix), hailed as being the worlds first ever legally cleared mash up/remix garnering praise from the electronic dance scene as well as rock legends Dire Straits. And most recently Global Underground 29: Dubai mixed By Sharam which features three tracks including Sultan & Ned Shepards latest releases Connected and Together We Rise on Shinichi Records.

In September of 2006 Sultan joined world class Dj agency, Bullitt Bookings. Having toured cities across the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa, Sultan has made his mark as one of the most exciting and technically sound performers in the DJ scene today.

In early 2007, Sultan began working closely with good friend Nadia Ali (Former singer of IIO). The two, alongside Ned Shepard, spent the month of January co-writing and co-producing songs for her forthcoming solo album to be released later this year. Recently both Sultan and Ned Shepard have joined Nadia on tour with Sultan playing guitars and Ned playing keyboards for her Live Show.
