Биография

Ahmed Djamil Ghouli alias DJAM is a singer, song-writer and composer of modern Algerian music. Born in 1985 in Algiers (Algeria), he took his first steps in music at the age of 14, inspired by his mother, a passionate fan of Algiers’ urban music. She encouraged him to join a school specialized in classical Arab-Andalusian music. In 2004, at the occasion of the annual show at his university, he improvised a few GNAWA standards and an original composition that was a great hit with the audience.The response he received pushed him to create his group, a little bit later known as: Djmawi Africa. Since 2015, Djamil has been living in France to finish his master in Musicology at the University of Paris VIII. He decided to put an end to his participation in the Djmawi Africa Adventure to concentrate fully on his solo project: DJAM. Djamil, alias DJAM, has just released his first solo album, « #ZDELDEL », an album influenced by his Algerian roots, but also with many african and reggae sounds. Recorded in Alger, Paris, Marseille and Roubaix, this first opus composed of 16 tracks, has been fully autoproduced by DJAM. DJAM is a complete artist, and a free spirit. Music is his way to express his vision of life and his comittments. His first album, #ZDELDEL, is available on all digital platforms since november, 15, 2018.
