Ep 266 with حلالاماما and Kieran Tahir.

We open with a mix from Iraqi musician, deejay, and promoter حلالاماما. Prepare for a melding of music from across eras, including Iraqi classics, Arabic bangers, and contemporary productions.

After that, we hear from Kerosene Comic Book-alum Kieran Tahir. Kieran is a British-Pakistani producer and deejay who has been based in Aotearoa since he was nine years old. His mix is a manifestation of the complexities of hybrid identity, as he merges bass-heavy UK productions with provocative Pakistani pop.
