Resistance is here and so is she!

Making this mix was an opportunity for me to feature Ukrainian artists, labels and compilations which raised money for humanitarian work. This is not an easy listening mix as it resonates strongly with current times. Some tracks are about resistance and some tap into the feeling of angst. I discovered some gems by lesser known artists and dropped some from. my fav artists. I am very excited to share this mix with all the listeners. If you fancy, you can donate by going to my artist page on Soundcloud and clicking 'Support Pooja B/ikigai' and all funds will be matched by me and sent to humanitarian work in Ukraine for the LGBTQ and POC communities.

Her sound was heavily influenced by the music she heard here when she first visited the city back in 2016. Her idea of techno is a skittish exploration of time and space in this Dystopian world. While futuristic, loopy, industrial sounds for dark clubs are her signature style, she can skillfully adapt to play music for outdoor spaces which still have a sprinkling of her special flavor. She has been a resident at Analog Room a weekly underground party with a cult following in Dubai, where she was based because of her flight-attendant job. She also held residencies at Warped & Electric Days prior to this, also in Dubai. Pooja B releases her music under the alias “ikigai”. Ikigai is a Japanese concept that means "a reason for being". Her reason for being is to make people dance :) She also takes a firm stand against racism, sexism & environmental issues, which she expresses via her music.
