Mixtapes, blends, beats, and few selections from my record collection 🎶

Ramin is a Swiss-Iranian artist, DJ, producer, and curator based in Geneva. Active in the music scene since 2019, he has performed at local clubs and international venues in cities such as Paris, Istanbul, Rome, Berlin, and Amsterdam. His journey has also led him to festivals like Montreux Jazz Festival, Transmusicales de Rennes and Paléo Festival. As a producer, Ramin delves into electronic music, blending sampled percussions and synthesizers, creating a mix of original tracks and edits that reflect his versatile sound. 

His curatorial projects focus on creating spaces for SWANA communities, cultural gatherings and festive events in Geneva. He has worked with venues like Le Rez - L'Usine, Le Groove, Bongo Joe, and L'Ecurie. From 2022 to 2024, Ramin curated Club Salaam, a series that highlighted artists such as Saliah, Moktar, Zaatar, Deena Abdelwahed, Leila Moon, and other local talents.

Ramin also hosts radio shows on Noods Radio (Bristol) and Radio Alhara (Palestine), where he shares a broad selection of music. His style combines bass-heavy and electronic rhythms with retro, acoustic, and synth-pop sounds, creating dynamic sets suited for a variety of audiences and spaces.

DJ, selector, archivist, and curator specialized in older music from Iran and the wider region. Signature projects 'Female Vocalists from Iran and Beyond' (2018-ongoing) and 'Sonic Imaginaries'. Weaving genres and geographies through musical dreaming, storytelling, and deep listening. Currently resident at Kiosk Radio, Brussels.
