dj RED-R

Redar Gyliana, professionally known as DJ RED-R, is an Iraqi DJ specializing in URBAN, Hip Hop, and House music genres. Born on April 27, 1993, in Erbil, Iraq, his journey into the world of DJing commenced in 2018 in the vibrant city of Erbil. Observing the dissatisfaction among partygoers with local DJs, he embarked on a mission to make a difference.

Encountering limited learning opportunities, Redar decided to travel to Lebanon in pursuit of guidance. Despite lacking prior music or DJing experience, he acquired a DJ kit and found mentorship under an American Lebanese DJ Edrien, mastering the fundamentals of the craft in a mere two weeks.

Returning to Erbil, Redar faced numerous challenges in his learning journey but persevered with unwavering support from his family. Soon, he began performing at parties in Erbil, gradually progressing to major events such as Christmas and New Year's concerts. His diverse mix of music styles—RNB, Hip Hop, URBAN, Reggaeton, Deep house, and House—aligned perfectly with local preferences. The influence of Lebanese DJs notably shaped his unique music style known as "BAZZAR."

Redar's mixes have amassed over a thousand plays on SoundCloud alone. He actively engages audiences on platforms like Anghami, YouTube, and Spotify. In a short span, he revolutionized the DJing scene in Erbil, becoming a regular fixture at renowned establishments, including Babylon FM, the largest radio station in Kurdistan, along with various hotels, nightclubs, and bars. Additionally, he frequents private parties, enriching these events with his energetic performances.

His ultimate ambition is to become a globally recognized DJ, representing the culturally rich region of Kurdistan. Redar aspires to showcase Kurdistan's vibrant music scene to the world, leaving a lasting impact through his passion and talent.
