OVERVIEW: Mid-summer, 2021, Waleed quietly released his debut single 'Se Rompen'. The response was anything but, with the track immediately taking hold as a sleeper hit that summer, being played out by the likes of Four Tet, Floating Points, Daphni, DJ Boring, DJ Seinfeld, Tourist and more. With word already spreading, an inclusion in Ben UFO's winter Essential Mix solidified the desire for more from this surprising new producer. Last month, Waleed announced his signing to City Slang (Caribou, Gold Panda) with a re-release of 'Se Rompen'. Today, we announce the pre-order of a white label 12› with šSe Rompen› and his new single šSuen~os›, limited to 300 units worldwide. Born in Washington DC to Iraqi/Puerto Rican parents, Waleed works in coding by day. Built around ready-made for the dancefloor kick and chopped vocals, 'Se Rompen' is an ambitious debut that showcases his focus on sound design. Waleed™s meshing of cultures and references gives 'Se Rompen' a unique perspective on dance music. At once melancholic and high energy. šA beautiful euphoric/melancholy fusion of cut-up vocals, soft electronics and two-step beats.› The Guardian šHighly refreshing, 'Se Rompen' has a rare immediacy, a feeling that it has always been a part of your life."
