Ahmed Sirour

p, key, *1977 US, Brooklyn
Musician of Hip-Hop/Rap, Jazz, R&B/Soul and Soundtrack

Ahmed Sirour–a Brooklyn, NYC native–is a completely self-taught musician who learned how to play piano/keyboards by ear at the start of his 20s. He never learned to read music but became a professional musician in 2002 (age 25). He received a Masters degree in Audio Production from the University of Westminster, London (UK), although he never completed a Bachelors degree. His musical range has covered Soul/R&B, Jazz, Funk, House (Soulful/Deep), Broken Beat, Instrumental Ballads, Rock, Alternative, Bossa Nova, Samba, Afrobeat/house, and much more as he loves to explore various genres. Ahmed has been featured on various independent artist albums and international compilations (both independent and major label distributed) for his original, cover, and remix work. Up-and-coming as well as established artists from around the globe, unsolicited, have sought him to produce music for their projects, and he has even had his music chosen by Academy Award-winning director Spike Lee for his Netflix series "She's Gotta Have It" ("We Rep Brooklyn" featured in Season 1, Episode 2). Unsigned and totally independent, whether you need music to enjoy from a quiet night in reading, or sweating it out on a club dance floor, Ahmed Sirour is an artistic force and a musical chameleon to watch!
