In an unprecedented fusion of DJs set, live performance and aerial adventure, electronic artists MRGOODALF and ARKADYAN have partnered with Dubai’s premier hot air balloon operator, @HeroBalloonsDubai, to deliver the world’s first back-to-back live DJ set performed in a hot air balloon.
While individual artists like Ben Böhmer and Eats Everything have performed solo sets in hot air balloons, this event marks the first-ever back-to-back live DJ set executed in such a setting. The collaboration between MRGOODALF and ARKADYAN not only pushes the boundaries of live electronic music performance but also showcases Dubai’s innovative spirit in merging cultural experiences with cutting-edge artistry.
ARKADYAN, a Dubai-based trio, is acclaimed for their seamless integration of organic and electronic sounds, drawing from jazz, reggae, salsa, and Afro-house. Their dynamic performances have graced esteemed venues like Beachouse Ibiza and Surf Club Dubai, and they have made notable appearances at festivals including Tomorrowland. Collaborations with artists like Bob Sinclar, particularly on tracks such as “Leleley,” have solidified their presence in the global electronic music scene.
MRGOODALF, a Spanish DJ hailing from the Canary and Balearic Islands, blends his tropical and Latin roots with influences from house music capitals like Ibiza and Tulum. With over eight years immersed in Dubai’s nightlife scene, he has established himself as a prominent figure in the Afro House and Afro Tech genres, sharing stages with renowned artists such as Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati, and Satori.
