Youniss

For Youniss Ahamad, music isn’t just an exploration of sound, but a means to unearth explanations for the ways of the surrounding world. Youniss’ journey started during quarantine,and produced several tracks characterized by jagged rhythms underneath heavy synths and distorted vocals. In the 4 short years since the birth of his project, Youniss’music has evolved into an amalgam of noise, electronics, and samples interacting with his post-punk and hip-hop influenced poetry. In all his music, Youniss aims to examine and communicate his own Black life as it unfolds in Belgium, a country with a particularly brutal colonial history.
