The return of MaDJam
Renowned Lebanese three-way mixer MaDJam is back on the island for a repeat performance at Karma Lounge at Coral Bay in association with Mix FM Beirut. He’s been spinning since age ten having started with elementary-school house parties which have led to some of the biggest clubs and events around the world. Mad-Jam’s (whose name comes from his reall moniker of Ahmad Ajam) has played warm-up and follow-up sets with some of the biggest DJs and dance music artists including Sasha, John Digweed, The Prodigy, David Guetta, Armin Van Buuren, Carl Cox, Tiesto and many more and his sets are always real crowd pleasers, even more so in this great waterfront venue.
