Club InFiné: Lucie Antunes + Basile3 + Deena Abdelwahed + LYAM
InFiné invites you to the latest edition of their international label night! Join us for a showcase of avant-garde club music, diverse emerging talents, and all things InFiné.
Our headliners this time are Tunisian experimentalist, producer and DJ Deena Abdelwahed, French composer, percussionist, and producer Lucie Antunes and Brussels-based experimental bedroom producer Basile3. All three projects represent the exciting genre-leaping soundscapes that InFiné has been cultivating for more than 15 years. Join us for a night of sonic experiences brought to you by one of the pioneering French labels of eclectic genre-spanning experimental music.
Having cut her teeth in Tunis, first in a jazz band and then on the local electronic scene, Deena Abdelwahed moved to France in 2016 and signed to Parisian label InFiné. With her first two albums Khonnar (2018) and Jbal Rrsas (2023) – she chartered unknown sonic territories in the hinterland between Arabo-Tunisian music and electronic club. In doing so, she tore up the rulebooks of all three genres, thereby proclaiming the birth of a new creative order.
Profoundly political and in search of emancipation, her music challenges and pushes the boundaries between techno, bass and experimental music to conjure new shapes and reimagine Arab dance music.
Versatile Brussels-based electronic music producer Basile3 (as well as frequent collaborator with labelmates like Deena Abdelwahed and Sabrina Bellaouel) released his debut album on May 31, 2024 on InFiné. Blending euphoric synths and intricate textures with hybrid club music DNA, he shares an intimate and intricate take on contemporary electronic and pop music.
Lucie Antunes is coming off the heels of her critically acclaimed second album Carnaval. Already lauded in France, Antunes unites the pop world with the avant-garde, with a crossover appeal that traverses genres and borders with ease. Her live shows are an infectious and joyous display of club music with an organic sensibility.
Signed to Warp Publishing, LYAM is one of British alternative rap’s most mysterious and elusive artists, returning now in summer 2024 after a four-year album hiatus with show stopping mixtape The Art Of Letting Go, with features from friends and associates like John Glacier and Wiki and production from likes of Mura Masa and Jeshi Universal Credit producers ineedsound.
