The 24th of August is Odai Masri's birthday. This man was a treasure. He left us on the 30th of June this year, and so many in his community feel an immense sense of loss. Dirar Kalash made this mix to commemorate conversations he has had with Odai. One of Odai's legacies is Exist Festival, and his friends will commence the last Exist festival that he curated in London on the 8th of September this year. Listeners are welcome to join us in this celebration of his life and to share memories with him during Exist.

"After the untimely passing of founder Odai Masri, AKA ODDZ, on 30th June, 2023, Exist Festival stands as a potent legacy to Odai's pioneering vision that has been instrumental in shifting the cultural tide in the region", the festival's team wrote on Instagram.
Masri had been a key figure in Ramallah's electronic scene since 2006, running labels like Harara Records and station Radio Nard. He was also a resident of Istanbul-based community radio station ROOT. He had been open on social media about the effects of his devastating double-ear infection, difficulties seeking treatment and with immigration, and his mental health in recent years.
Exist has also hosted previous editions in cities like Ramallah, Amman, Beirut, Berlin, Oslo and Athens since 2019.
In June, Exist released a compilation, titled 'No ComplY', to raise money for a community skatepark in Gaza.
