The Israeli DJ
I’m an Israeli DJ, and Israeli music isn’t a themed add-on in my sets. It’s where I come from. I know the songs that make the whole room sing every word, the Mizrahi tracks that put the aunts and uncles on the floor, and the Hebrew classics that bring everyone together for the hora.
An Israeli crowd has its own energy, and I read it the way only someone from that world can. I know when to drop the next Israeli hit and when to blend it into house, Afro house, hip hop or top 40, so the floor never breaks and every generation stays with me until the last song.

Cultures
Beyond Israeli hits, I’m a Bukharian, Kavkazi, Moroccan and Persian DJ for the families who grew up on that music. Every culture played the real way.

Music From Our Communities
Bukharian, Kavkazi, Moroccan and Persian music isn’t something I look up the week before your event. I play it the real way for the families who grew up on it, at weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs and every kind of simcha.
I know the moment a Kavkazi crowd is ready for the lezginka, the Persian classics that pull everyone onto the floor, and the Bukharian favorites the whole family is waiting for. Then I carry that energy straight into Israeli hits and modern dance music, so the old and the new feel like one night.
For Moroccan families, I bring the sound of home: Chaabi that gets everyone clapping, Andalusian classics for the elders, darbuka-driven sets for the henna night (hina), and the joyful, open-house spirit of Mimouna, blended into Mizrahi and Israeli hits so the dance floor feels like one big family.
Bukharian
The family favorites for real Bukharian simchas.
Kavkazi
Lezginka-style dance sets for Mountain Jewish crowds.
Moroccan
Chaabi, Andalusian classics and henna-night sets, with Mimouna energy.
Persian
Persian dance classics that fill the floor.
Any culture, any tradition: we'll make it happen. Russian, Georgian, Yemenite, Arabic, Latin, Indian or a mix of all of them, just tell me the music your family loves and I'll build the night around it.
Shanti Records
Original Music, Remixes, Edits & Mashups
I don’t just play other people’s records. I produce my own music and make my own remixes, edits and mashups, so my sets sound like me. That includes my own Israeli and Mizrahi blends with house and Afro house that you won’t hear anywhere else.
For weddings I can make custom edits for your entrance or first dance, built around the song you love and the moment you want. My original singles are out on Beatport on my label, Shanti Records, and you can find me on streaming as Shlomi Shanti.
