Solar A DJ recognized for his sunset sets and bold creativity, Solar’s dedication to his art is shown through his electrifying music. Growing up in San Francisco, he was exposed to diverse music styles and these roots are prominent during his performances.

Now formally recognized as the Discouture crew, they’re frequently found dishing out left-field tracks that lean towards house, Balearic and disco sounds. Wale adds to it with musical nods to his Indonesian-Nigerian heritage, imbuing African or Middle Eastern elements into his sets.
