Adam Assad (born 14 December 1982), better known by his stage name DJ Assad, is a French disc jockey. He is best known for his "Royal Mix" show on various French stations. He also has released the album Playground in 2010.
He was passionate about music from very early on and tried various styles (Hip Hop, Rock, House et Soul). His meeting with DJ Abdel and DJ Godjothai in when he was just eighteen, launched him in DJing and he considered them his mentors. With DJ Milouz he launched the concept of "Royal Mix" on Radio FG in 2002. La Mixtape FG concept was born and he became a resident DJ with the popular station from 2002 to 2006, when he moved to French radio station Fun Radio where he was given a regular spot Saturdays from 7 to 9 pm to present his "Royal Mix".
In addition to his radio work, he found chart success in France with producing "Everybody Clap" and "Summer Lovin'" both credited to DJ Assad vs Maradja. He also mixed hits at various night venues like Pacha, Vip Room, Papagayo, Acapulco, Louise Gallery and Platinum.
In 2010, DJ Assad released his first album Playground with collaborations from Vincent Brasse, Big Ali, Willy William and Greg Parys with "For Your Eyes" as the main single from the album.
Starting 21 August 2010, DJ Assad and fellow DJ Milouz moved the "Royal Mix" show to NRJ on Saturdays from 8 to 10 pm with Romuald Boulanger and later Léo Lanvin presenting the show. In September 2011, the show was reduced to 1 hour and was animated by Anto.
*Did not appear in the official Belgian Ultratop 50 charts, but rather in the bubbling under Ultratip charts.
