The Midnight Ravn Reverie

Silvr Sage (AKA Ahmad "AJ" Joudeh) is a Palestinian-American Electronic Music Producer from the Chicago area. His influences are centered around, but not confined to, House Music.

His musical journey started in the early 2000s with him tinkering and dissecting his favorite tracks. His methods and skills matured and finally broke into the scene in 2022 with his Synthwave hit "Unearthly Imperative".

His sound is not bound by a particular genre, but rather by an emotional signature he attempts to convey in his production.

As the youngest of 6 siblings, he was exposed to the styles of dance music that took over Chicago in the early 90s. Spending a good amount of his childhood in Palestine, both Folk and Pop music of the region gave him insight into what moves a crowd. In the early 2000's, he sought refuge in the vibrant sounds of Trance, the unapologetic edge of Techno and the brilliance of various House artists such as Daft Punk, Eric Prydz and deadmau5.

Growing up watching movies with notable soundtracks such as Batman '89, Rocky & later experiencing scores from Daft Punk & deadmau5, Joudeh was moved by the impact music had on media. Many projects feature scores produced by Silvr Sage. Most notably the series, Tubular Teens with Titans, which was followed by a 10-track  soundtrack album.  Metal, Synthwave, and Orchestral pieces can be found on this and other collaborative projects.

Combining the unattainable status of "Sage", along with chronically existing as an underdog, the color Silver [Silvr] is celebrated as it represents the expectations he sets forth to surpass.

It is eerily coincidental that the herb Silver Sage is used to ground someone and bring clarity to their psyche. 

Imagine cramming a blender with the experiences you encounter along with the infinite potential encounters, mash 'em with the dots we connect and those we create in our minds and press "express". Odds are you'll end up with mush, but sometimes you'll end up with a perfectly concocted representation of you and what your mind speaks. 

Silvr Sage's influences are a seed planted in the soil of disco, roots reaching our into 80s pop, breaking the soil through 90s dance, 2000s punk rock and alternative, and blossoming out past the golden age of EDM. Sometimes, bystanders will drink black coffee and smoke under its shade jamming to minimal techno and discussing existential philosophy. Other times, souls who have not yet been jaded, find love and bliss in their hearts leaning back on this tree.
