Zahed Sultan is a music producer from Kuwait. He released his debut album, Hi Fear, Lo Love in 2011 and attained success with his single, I Want Her But I Don’t Want Her. Parisian DJ, Stephane Pompougnac, featured the single on the internationally acclaimed Hotel Costes 15 compilation. Prior to this, world-renowned house music label Global Underground and DJ Sasha awarded Zahed 3rd place for the Involver Remix Competition. Zahed’s Remix was later signed alongside DJ Sasha to America’s no.1 TV hit series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
Zahed has released the new EP in conjunction with an annual exposition he holds in Kuwait, entitled REUSE, to promote eco-friendly living via creative mediums. REUSE is an annual exposition that serves as an opportunity for non-profit organizations, companies, professionals and aspiring creative talents to showcase their accomplishments in the fields of social responsibility and sustainability via a range of artistic mediums and interactive activities for the general public.

The music is very hard to categorise – it blends electronic music with an almost ethereal sound and soft vocals in both English and Arabic to create something quite unique. The EP features two original tracks plus two remixes. It’s so hard to decribe accurately that you really need to give this a listen and make your own decisions about it’s sound – it’s unique and hard to decribe but at the same time it’s strangely hypnotic and addictive.
Track listing:
