Aimed at creating safe space for dance and expression. 

Currently based in NYC, raised outside of Chicago, and having also spent a few years in Paris, my taste for sound hovers between all hours of the night and early morning. In the clubs of Paris and Berlin I was able to experience a freedom of mind and body that would become a new foun￼dation. It is that freedom allowed me to better understand my own sexuality and gender, self expression and connection. It also rekindled, for me, the love of mixing and the building of a great set, or story if you will. Tho I had mixed for serval years before, it was just after lockdown that I purchased my first CDJ’s . I did so in hopes of giving space to other queer DJ’s as a way to create space and connect with a community I had really known in my earlier NYC days. 

That’s when I began spending time with new music as well. After loosing a love of many years, it was these tracks that would became my friends. Spending time listening to song after song and eventually only wanting the latest releases. I find my favorite thing is to mix new tracks I’ve not touched before and have barely heard in passing. Discovering new music with people and creating the moment together has become very special to me.

Lately the music I’ve been playing with has an emphasis on Acid, Bass, Break and the lovely sound coming from the UK as of late. 

Party safely :)

Brooklyn based Praveen Sharma has always taken a genre absorbing, dancefloor-oriented approach to his output as Braille,  effortlessly floating through house, techno, melancholic ambient and UK Bass. His singles on European labels Rush Hour (“The Year 3000”) and Hotflush Recordings (“A Meaning”) were critically acclaimed and set the stage for his full length album debut on LA based label Friends of Friends (“Mute Swan”). With an ear for sentimental melodies and an unprecedented step into the vocal arena, Braille’s first full-length demonstrated his ability to step outside the dancefloor box. Braille’s return to Hotflush with “Stand Still” marks an infusion of color and optimism to his sound and sets the stage for a renewed focus on the dance.

Praveen Sharma has been making a diverse range of music from folk to juke since 2004. He has released as “Praveen” on Neo Ouija, Moodgadget and Supermartyr Records, “Praveen & Benoît” on Music Related, and alongside Machinedrum as one half of the Pitchfork “Best New Music” awarded “Sepalcure” on Hotflush Recordings.
