One Zouk Congress in Adelaide
I had so much fun putting this set together to see if I could make a set that explores the concepts of ‘Space’ and being ‘Lost’ to match the social party theme of 'Lost in Space'
So expect songs referring to a voyage, being lost/missing, the night sky, astronaut, rocket etc.
Also the Sci Fi nerd in me had to include some nods to Doctor Who and Star Wars with some fun and epic remixes.
This was the second last set of the marathon.

Trap > Ambient/R&B/Pop > Neo Zouk/Kizomba > trap/remixes > pop

BraZouky Australia 2025 - Thursday night Warm Up Party - opening set

The track is a blend of various genres such as Electronic (chillwave/downtempo/ambient), Pop, and Soul. It has an energetic atmosphere that feels like it's being transported to different times in history. The sound is smooth with hints of electronic beats that are balanced by the rhythmic energy from each instrument
The lyrics are simple yet powerful with themes about love and relationships that resonate deeply.  The lyrics are based on a poem written by my father when he was on holidays after my mother died. .
Overall, the music is uplifting and inspiring in its message to move forward 

DJ Shez (Sherriden)
