Bio
Cheb Runner (real name Reda Senhaji) is a Moroccan producer and composer rooted in the coastal city of Agadir, exploring the electronic musical landscape. He embodies a new sound of inbetweenness, shaped by different worlds while moving freely across time. Drawing from firsthand field recordings and a personal sample bank based on traditional instruments, Reda playfully merges analogue and digital textures, supported by a unique collection of synthesizers and other gear.
His artistic journey began experimenting with various aliases, collectives, and genres. Today, both as composer & performer, he merges traditional and contemporary electronic sounds, moving from Moroccan chaabi and spiritual soundscapes to eclectic disco, techno, rave and gabber.
A familiar presence on Kiosk Radio in Brussels (BE), Cheb Runner is also part of the (A)WAKE Foundation in Rotterdam (NL) where he continues to explore the intersections of analog and digital, local and global, tradition and modernity.
