Some DJs come to Austin to play the hits. Hamdi has spent 2026 making a point of not doing that, and on Saturday, Feb. 27, 2027, he brings that approach to the 3,000-capacity The Concourse Project. Osmosis Jones is on the bill, the night starts at 9 p.m., and tickets are $55 through See Tickets. The show was announced Nov. 4.

If you know Hamdi, you probably know him from a drop. The British producer built his name on bass music that pulls from dubstep, grime, UK garage and bassline, and tracks like "Skanka" and "Counting" became fixtures in other DJs' sets before his own were selling out. "Push," his collaboration with Skrillex and Taichu, put him in front of an even bigger crowd.

This year was a step up. Hamdi played two weekends at Coachella in April, and in a Q&A with the Luna Collective he talked about that debut alongside the launch of a new tour concept, Anywhere & Everywhere. Dancing Astronaut reported the North American leg that month, noting he was steering toward intimate, underground-feeling clubs rather than defaulting to the biggest stages. The idea, as coverage of the tour framed it, is a producer showing range and refusing to be pinned to a single sound, with the crowd's job simply to react.

That's a shift from 2025, when his Abomination Club Tour was built around small, sweaty rooms. Put the two together and you get a sense of where Hamdi is now: someone who can fill a festival field but wants the energy of a club, and who's willing to swerve genres mid-set to get it.

If you know Hamdi, you probably know him from a drop.

The Concourse Project is the right Austin room for that tension. At 3,000 capacity it's big enough to feel like an event, but it's built as a dance space, not an arena, which suits a set that's meant to keep moving. For Austin's bass crowd, which has never been shy about showing up for UK sounds, a Saturday night with Hamdi at full volume in a room that size is about as good as it gets in late February.

Osmosis Jones opens. Give them your attention early; bass nights at Concourse tend to build, and the room will be filling as the support set goes.

At $55, this isn't an impulse buy, but it's a fair price for an artist coming off a Coachella year and a headline tour. Tickets are on sale now through See Tickets, and a Saturday at a 3,000-cap room with a name this hot is the kind of show that doesn't stay available forever.

Mark Feb. 27, rest up that week, and wear shoes you can jump in.
