Avec DJ Amir
Celebrated Berlin selector DJ Amir plays rare groove, spiritual jazz, soul and leftfield dance — free before 9pm, $10 after.
All the way from Berlin, we have the honor of hosting the legendary DJ Amir for the first time at Tigris! More than a selector, DJ Amir is a historian, archivist and one of the key voices connecting jazz, soul, hip-hop and deep record culture over the last three decades. Known worldwide as one half of the legendary Kon & Amir partnership, he helped redefine the language of crate digging through the seminal Off Track series on BBE Music.
Through his label 180-Proof Records, Amir has been instrumental in restoring and preserving the Strata Records catalogue, bringing one of America's most important independent jazz archives back into circulation. From the early Fat Beats era to Worldwide FM broadcasts and appearances alongside names like Q-Tip and Cut Chemist, Amir's sets move through spiritual jazz, rare groove, soul and leftfield dance music with the depth of someone who genuinely lived the culture. Sound room opens 5pm // DJ set 9pm // Free before 9pm, $10 after
