This mix starts with a song from my childhood — an Iranian track by a female artist whose music was often dismissed as “too girlie.” As I grew older, the song aged beautifully, like fine wine... or, in the Iranian way, like a hand-woven rug. It now blends perfectly into a house set with a synth line that never stops hypnotizing you on the dance floor. Layering that with queer, femme energy or ballroom beats turns the whole mix into a playful ride made for cuties who dance together on the floor instead of staring at the DJ.
