Soltan

Soltan is the stage name for Bass Music's most enigmatic producer from the Middle East, living in Toronto. He is an Iranian-born artist who has been making dubstep music for years and releases it under his “Soltan” moniker but can’t come out about his identity because of government regulation in Iran. Iran has a big dance music following, but no clubs that have a dubstep appeal. He was recognized and signed originally by Firepower. Furthermore, he has since garnered a lot of fans in Western states who want to see him live. Soltan immigrated to Canada to produce more music and play shows. Soltan is the tip of a spear in an electronic music movement he pioneered by his unique approach to sound. Inspiring EDM growth and even genres and taking the industry into emerging markets with signature middle eastern influences. Read more on Last.fm.
