Biography
Born in Israel to Moroccan Jewish parents in 1975. Asher started his musical career as a Punk-Rocker in 1990, when he formed a group called Sartan Hashad (literally Breast Cancer) together with 3 friends. The band used to play in small venues in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, and enjoyed limited success in the small Israeli Punk scene. In 1996 Asher decided to leave the band, as he wished to develop his career, write and perform music which would appeal to larger audience. He started making Trance music, but still kept a hard rock sound, playing electric guitar riffs in many of his tracks. In 1998 he adopted the stage name DJ Skazi.[1] In 2012, he took part in an Israeli documentary show called "Mehubarim" ("Connected"), in which he used a handheld camera to record his intimate everyday life.
In July 2020, he published a video on social media announcing he contracted COVID-19.
