Paris-based DJ KOBAIEN has firmly established himself as one of the most sought-after names in the French electronic music scene, commanding attention from festival-goers and high-profile brands alike. With a residency at some of the top clubs in Paris, KOBAIEN regularly plays to thousands at legendary summer festivals like Chalet des Îles, where his thrilling sets have become a staple of the Parisian nightlife.
Known for his ability to win over both massive crowds and intimate VIP audiences, he’s been tapped by prestigious brands like Louis Vuitton, proving his unique appeal and versatility as a DJ. Despite the whirlwind demand for his performances, KOBAIEN remains highly selective when it comes to his studio work, collaborating only on projects that allow him to fully showcase his talent.
This discerning approach has paid off, as he’s seen major success with collaborations alongside the likes of SANDHAUS and Sound of Bam. His latest project sees KOBAIEN linking up with Ohm Vision, a fellow Parisian artist known for his unique approach to crafting soundscapes. With a background as a guitarist and a deep passion for blending emotion with complex electronic compositions, Ohm Vision brings a new dimension to their collaboration.
Together, KOBAIEN and Ohm Vision have crafted the indie dance track “Nightmare,” a song that draws inspiration from the cinematic, futuristic sounds of artists like WhoMadeWho and Kavinsky. Building the hype for its arrival, the track was played ahead of its release by acts such as Tale Of Us, Adriatique, Mind Against.
Jumping straight in to a spacey dance vibe of pulsing synths and shuffling percussion, compelling vocal leads enter to float above the driving instrumentation as intricate synth pips add bright dashes of colour to the arrangement. Full of catchy hooks and uptempo danceable energy, “Nightmare” sees KOBAIEN and Ohm Vision serve up an infectious jam that’s just as suited for the dancefloor as it is for late night drives.
