Dubai is a city of superlatives where all kinds of cultures and nationalities live together peacefully. Oil and Trade rich, Dubai is known for its opulence and style and with that comes an active vibrant nightlife attracting the world’s best music artists and dj’s playing alongside a host of locally based musical talent.

After moving to Dubai in 2014 Tobie Allen, head honcho @ Bootleg Social Records saw and heard this local talent 1st hand. He realized he had a platform for local producers to showcase their music in Dubai and Internationally; Ma’ana: Sounds of Dubai was born.

Over the last year Tobie & his Bootleg Social team have auditioned and collected a variety of tracks from Dubai’s best dance music producers. From Nu –Disco to Deep House, Soulful house to Tech house, right through to techno the response to his call was overwhelming.
