Kamila Narysheva aka milktea is one of the key artists of the contemporary Central Asian music scene.

She is an active advocate for equality and anti-sexism in creative spheres and music. Most preferable genres of milktea are: techno, guaracha, breaks, bass/club, dark disco, indie dance.

milktea (Kamila Narysheva) is a sound artist and DJ based in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Her practice spans spatial sound, installation and performance, exploring memory, infrastructures and digital isolation through a decolonial lens. Her sets move playfully across techno, guaracha, breaks and bass/club, treating the dancefloor as a judgment-free space and a site of collective power.

This mix was recorded at home. It moves through breaks, bass, guaracha and techno influences, with tracks from Central Asia, the SWANA region and Latin America. The set is guided by unexpected combinations, intuitive shifts in energy and a focus on what feels engaging in the moment rather than a single style.
