Marrakech, Morocco
Purveyor of deep, infectious dance grooves and a feel-good atmosphere. That' s how Badr Khiyat (a.k.a. DexLeMaffo) – a very active member of the Moroccan electronic music community – describes himself as a DJ. Today, his mixed spectrum of musical influence translates into sets where he picks apart and infuses all the pieces of his puzzle: beautiful synth work, ethereal backdrops, brooding basslines, percussive and tribal beats, and occasional vocal hooks, all underlined by a pronounced foot-shuffling house or techno beat.
