Sirus Hood has spent more than two decades refining a simple but demanding idea of DJing: a set should not merely entertain a room, it should change its state.
Raised between Algiers and Paris, he fell for house music at ten, through hard-to-find mixtapes traded out of underground clubs. Chicago house, hip house and ghetto grooves became a foundation: swing, repetition, danger and release. Behind the decks since eighteen and entirely self-taught, he built his following room by room, by word of mouth.
He broke through with Welcome to the Hood on CUFF and Third Eye on Dirtybird, followed by records on Cajual, Hot Creations and Cuttin’ Headz. The records carried him across Europe, the Americas, Asia and Australia, with Brazil the country where he first heard thousands of people sing his own tracks back to him.
In Ibiza he has been a fixture from his Sankeys residency to ANTS at Ushuaïa and Paradise at UNVRS. In 2022 he co-founded Mood Child with Manda Moor, named Hype Label of the Year at the 2025 Beatport Awards. Today he is entering his most focused chapter yet: control of the room through rhythm and flow.
