Rahaan X GAYANCE (Hosted by .LUM – c=0)

In collaboration with .LUM – c=0, BIRD presents a club night with two soulful icons from the electronic scene.

Rahaan
From Chicago, the birthplace of house music, comes Rahaan, who has been sharing his passion for house and disco on many dance floors since the 80s. Over the course of three decades, he has become a legend in Chicago, praised for his exceptional skills behind the decks and impeccable taste in music. Recent praise for his production work, with releases on labels such as Lumberjacks In Hell, Street Edits and Dopeness Galore, confirms his versatility. Rahaan’s tracks are steeped in dancefloor groove, and his musical finesse has been shaped by countless hours behind the decks, learning which songs get the crowd moving. His journey started with cassette tapes under the name ‘Chuck Brothers’ and led to residencies at ‘The Spot’ and ‘Buddha Lounge’ in Chicago after a return in 1996. Rahaan has cemented his reputation with DJ sets around the world.

Gayance

As a DJ she has rocked stages such as Dekmantel, Lowlands Festival and Montreux Jazz Festival, as well as clubs such as Panorama Bar and Doka Amsterdam.
