The Maschine is a 16 channel beat/sample pad created by Native Instruments, and the company has noticed ASADI’s talent, supporting and reposting his work numerous times. ASADI has opened for a few well known EDM artists including 7 Lions and Black Tiger Sex Machine, and is locked in for performing many major festivals and shows throughout the US, including Electric Forest 2017 and Euphoria Music Festival 2017.
