Kadnes

Bio

Kadnes is a Turkish producer and DJ who blends eastern ethnic tones with melodic techno and afro house, building a catalog that has repeatedly cracked Beatport rankings since he started making music at age 14. A member of the Monkey Project collective, he adapts regional melodies and percussion into club-ready productions released on HAMSA, Cafe De Anatolia HUB, Kadnes Records, and Monkey Project. His 2026 singles 'Finger on the Trigger' and 'Eclipse Of The Night' continue an active release streak that includes 'What's There Not to Love About Here?' and the Zurna EP. Beyond the studio, Kadnes has shared stages with DJs including Colyn (Afterlife) and performed at major events such as the Dosso Dossi Fashion Show and Miss Turkey. With ~18k monthly Spotify listeners and steady support across melodic and afro-leaning playlists, he sits in the motivated mid-tier where public stream data can help prove momentum to bookers and labels.
