Between the Oriental Mosques and churches and the western Malls and Fashion brands he has previously experimented with avant-guard and pop music, performed in amazing clubs of Beirut such as “The Grand Factory”, participated in “ReddBull Music Academy”, released an EP under the name of LÜJAH, the album was written about in many publications and local news papers under the title of “The Unpredictable Hurricane: Rakans". His music often take on an emotional, and dramatic aspects, bringing love, sexuality, and tenderness as main topics into the techno sounds which not only make the crowd dance hard, but also go back to their first instincts of sexual desires and pleasures.
