From Naarm's Zara, a seismic dawn to the new year. Halftime rhythms tremble, atmospheres kiss the wind, valleys of unbridled emotion nestle in-between. A colossal mix of sincere gravity, cleaving a path forward, brimming with new light. Thanks Zara!

"Crafted over the summer months in Australia, this mix is inspired by warm summer chaos: heat so intense you feel delirious, moments so fast they feel slow, days so long they last forever."

MNMT 429 : Zara

"A space where the pulse of the city merges with sounds dancing between serenity and eruption, like a fractured dream in suspended time. Here, waves of bass envelop you, while rhythms twist free from the bounds of time and space, leaving you adrift in a sonic universe that refuses to be entirely predictable."

Warm, emotive, and explorative - a set of characteristics that make up the enchanting vision of Zara (@zaraolsen), one of the most exciting talents hailing from the Australian scene. Whether it’s IDM, drum and bass, or techno, the Kinesis label-head fuses it all with an enigmatic sense of delicacy.

Her sets have been turning heads within the international electronic music scene, playing at places like De School, Tresor, and Donato Dozzy’s Spazio Disponsible label showcase. Harmonizing the ethereal and the ominous - Zara takes a gentle yet firm grip on minds and souls on and off the dancefloor.
