DAR DISKU is a Bahrain-born, London-based DJ duo formed by Mazen Almaskati and Vish Mhatre. Renowned for their genre-blurring sets, Dar Disku celebrates the sounds of the Arabian Gulf, fusing Middle Eastern rarities with global disco, house, and electronica. Their name—Arabic for "House of Disco"—reflects both their heritage and a deep passion for crate-digging, unearthing forgotten gems from the Arabic-speaking world and recontextualizing them for modern dancefloors.
Emerging as key players in London's underground party scene, Dar Disku's infectious energy has seen them light up iconic venues throughout Europe and the Middle East, as well as festival stages including Glastonbury and Lost Village. Their monthly NTS Radio show exposes listeners to experimental blends of far-reaching influences, championing sounds that bridge East and West. Through their eponymous label, Dar Disku have released a series of acclaimed edits, remixes, and original collaborations, earning support from tastemakers such as Gilles Peterson, Four Tet, and Peggy Gou.
Advocates for preserving cultural heritage, the duo injects nostalgia and innovation into every set, inviting global audiences to experience the vibrancy and diversity of Arab club music.
