DOHA
Doha based Dee Jay Moe, also known as Mohamad Chahine, has been influenced and moved by the Hip Hop and EDM genre since the age of fifteen. Aided by his passion, he outdid himself by setting his crowd on fire with exceptional Hip-hop sets/mixes that have constantly evolved over the years. He began performing in many private school events including the after proms of both "LAU" and "AUB". In 2003, Dee Jay Moe had the opportunity to shine in several clubs in Monot Street such as: Fusion, Orange CD, I-Bar, Pepper, Gallery, and Square Bar; giving him the chance to experiment with many different forms of underground and commercial Hip hop, R’NB, and Reggae music. The journey continued in beach resorts such as: Cyan, Oceana, O Cup, Mocean, and La guava.
He became the resident DJ of Palapas beach resort for two years. In 2005, his journey finally paid off, granting him the chance to excel and become the resident DJ of Chaos, formerly known as Crocodiles in Monot for five consecutive years until another opportunity emerged as being a resident DJ, but this time at Pearl Night Club. Not only was the EDM genre new-fangled in the streets of Beirut, but it was a small scene that Dee Jay Moe constantly worked on improving. Furthermore, the scene expanded rapidly leaving Dee Jay Moe with a huge fan base that kept him coming up over the years. One of Dee Jay Moe’s biggest influence during his voyage was DJ Rap Base (RIP), considered the best Lebanese Hip-hop DJ who recognized Moe’s talent and hosted him in his hot program G-Spot along with MC Moe.
Two years after joining Beat Box team in 2008, and starting in the summer of 2010, Dee Jay Moe became part of the Sky Management family as one of the resident DJs at what's known to be the number one night club in the world, SKYBAR. and for three consecutive summers Dee Jay Moe took the Beirut clubbing scene to a new level with his mind-blowing performances. Simultaneously, Dee Jay Moe was offered an instant spot at Chocolate Club by Jojo at its weekly R’n’B nights every Wednesday. Chocolate became an instant hit since the winter of 2008 and rapidly became the winter hot spot for both Lebanese and foreign clubbers. In the summer of 2014, Dee Jay Moe joined La Suite, Oceana beach resort as the resident DJ and will be playing his coolest Jams there every summer. He has been the resident DJ for several months at Orchid Club, Mondrian Hotel in Qatar.
Last but not least, Dee Jay Moe’s huge success led him to DJ for several A-list artists such as Busta Rhymes, Florida, Rudy, Wyclef Jean, Example, J. Cole, Jay Sean, Shaggy, Skylar Grey, Fatboy Slim, Jason Derulo, Yasmin, Alexandra Stan, Ashanti, Fat Joe and many more.
As Doug E. Fresh says, Hip-hop is supposed to uplift and create, to educate people on a larger level and to make a change... And that’s what Dee Jay Moe has accomplished over the years and the best is yet to come.
