ACE-F

Playing professionally by 17, he cut his teeth in Moroccan clubs before relocating to Montréal at 19. Years of digging have given him a wide vocabulary, from techno and house to deep, breakbeat, acid and more experimental territory, though the selection always comes before the genre. Vinyl and digital both have a place in the process; what matters is whether a track earns its spot. In Montréal, he has become a familiar presence in the city’s newer electronic scene, with appearances at Salon Daome, Velvet, Baby Bar, Stillife and Cappella, alongside a steady run of underground raves and afters. Through FERMĒ, his work extends beyond the booth. The project has carried its nights from Montréal to Barcelona, including an edition at 303 Audiophile Bar, with ACE-F shaping the visuals and the space as closely as the music, always favouring intention over hype.
