Jordanian alternative duo Fairplay is the cultivation of long-running friendship and mutual passion for sound. Formed by Faisal and Fuad, who met in Jordan while organizing music parties, the duo were inspired to perform and produce together after welcoming taste-makers in the electronic music sphere.
With time, they went separate ways to study abroad but decided to keep Fairplay alive as their connective tissue. Their individual experiences became the mesh that bound their creativity, implementing their love of nature, travel, and eclectic Middle-Eastern touch to the project. Fairplay’s stylings gained attention from labels such as Kindisch, Bar 25, and Stil Vor Talent for releases.
Distance connected Fairplay.
For over a decade, Fairplay has been a leading force in the electronic scene in Jordan. They have established a reputation for DJing, organizing and promoting a range of successful events, including their Kollective parties, their Lost Oasis desert rave and their event and label brand Vudu, in Amman. Throughout their career, Fairplay has had the privilege of collaborating with some of the most respected and talented artists in the industry, including Jimi Jules, Ame, Laolu, Yulia Niko, Moblack, Sparrow & Barbossa, Phonique, Reznik, Floyd Lavine and FNX Omar. This wealth of experience has helped to shape Fairplay into the creatives they are in the electronic music world.
The Fairplay & Friends brand started in early 2021, with the goal of collaborating with artists from around the world to produce a variety of creative projects. Since its inception, the brand has grown to include a monthly Spotify collaborative playlist featuring different artists, as well as events and merchandise drops. As the brand continues to expand, it remains a key part of Fairplay’s offerings.
Their brand Vudu Amman started as a small club and has now grown into an international events brand and record label. They have booked some huge names such as Jimi Jules, &friends, Ame and Laolu. As well, they have signed many of the names that have played at the Vudu events, such as Alican, Nhii, Phonique and Murat Uncuoglu. Vudu brand grew from hosting 200 people at their first club to over 3000 people at their festival event in summer 2024.
