Although I have never been a professional DJ, from a long time, I’ve been an excited listener and collector of good music of any genre. As a sociologist and Middle East researcher, I also use music for understanding, learning and getting closer to different ideas and phenomena.

Folk music is a case in point, as every human community on earth voices its experience by using different instruments and techniques learnt from their ancestors. Folk music conveys the very root of knowledge, tradition and value coded to sound waves, not to speak about its’ strong influence on modern electronic genres.

In my monthly mix, I would like to start a journey from India to India via planet earth using our ears, brain and imagination as vehicles, in which I would like to focus on different manifestations of collective human musical experience labeled folk music.

You don’t need your rucksack to join the trip!
