The Gathering [Original Mix] by Eli Ishac

The Gathering [Original Mix]

A member of the Lebanese electronica and techno scene, as a music producer and one of the first few in the Lebanese techno scene that perform live sets, Eli’s music career debuted in 2006 as a member and co-founder of the Lebanese band Awham Beirut, producing original Electro-Arab music. He then expanded into a a duo Indie dance project called Stripped (later known as STRPD), producing and performing live electronic and indie dance covers and original tracks on weekly basis from 2005 until 2020. 

Eli is also a member of the organic house and electronica duo Funkermonk, combining the traditional sounds of electronic dance music with techno electronica and ambient genre blends to produce original tracks and remixes. 

Eli’s uncompromising sounds have the distinction of being rooted in both the familiar and the mystical. As a producer and musician he playfully bends waves as an audial rendition of his uniquely organic journey. Eli has performed live techno and acid downtempo music at underground parties, festivals and big clubs in Lebanon. He has also released original tracks “Distortions of Beirut” on Groove Sensation Records, "Amber" on cafe de Anatolia, "Ya Dom" on Tibetania records.

Eli is currently playing two live ses, a clubby techno set and a hypnotic downtempo set using analogue and organic instruments to blend and bend the different genres that stimulate him and his audience. 
Eli has produced collaboratively with various artists and bands while teaching music production in parallel for the past 8 years; his new solo project is a reflection of his accumulated experiences focused on rhythmic progression and delicate technicality. 

While Eli is calm by nature, he allows himself to interact with his demons through his sounds, layering his tracks seamlessly with sharp noise that transport the listener smoothly along his well mastered melodies.
