History

Solarvibe, also known as Al-Amin Kheraj, started DJ’ing in 2001 at school sports festivals in Dar-es-Salaam. His first major club residency was at the legendary California Dreamers under the guidance of DJ Ommy (senior).

Since then, Solarvibe has played at venues in New York City, London and Dijon, including Touch, Zanzibar, Inspiral and Atmo. He has taken on different genres and names, starting with DJ Ace in the earliest days, and then adopting new aliases as he discovered new styles.

With a deep influence of 90’s hip hop and electronic music from his elder brother, Solarvibe now focuses most of his time playing deep house. He strives to cultivate a progressive scene in his native Dar-es-Salaam where he has held Thursday night residencies at both Oasis and Grillhouse in the popular Masaki district.
