Shiyam

The Maestro | Mr. Electro

A pivotal force in the history of Sri Lanka’s electronic dance music scene, Shiyam Mohideen (known as DJ Shiyam) has spent nearly two decades evolving the island’s underground culture. From its infancy to the global stage, he remains a "Maestro" of the craft.

Musical Identity

Respected for a signature style that is unpredictable, dark, and groovy, Shiyam is a primary architect of the Minimal, Progressive, and Tech House movement in Sri Lanka. His sets are "mind-blowing sonic journeys" that balance technical risk with high-intensity energy.

Global Footprint: Official DJ for Ministry of Sound tours in Sri Lanka and stage partner to international heavyweights like Thomas Gold, Jerry Ropero, and Richard Dinsdale.
