Javid – whose name means “eternal” in Farsi, has indeed created a timeless piece of music for the next episode in our Urban Cosmonaut Radio series. Featuring a range of his own productions, live improvisations and organic samples, this mixtape tells a story that takes us to a world without borders or geographical boundaries.
Born and raised in Berlin, Javid’s music takes us on a journey through everlasting traditions and rituals of the Middle East, tribal vocals from Africa and organic sounds he’s collected from around the world. His Persian heritage and unique cultural influences fuse together to create a soundscape he describes as “ethno techno” – with basslines full of tangible tension and melodies tainted with melancholia.
Press play to explore a world without time – a world where the only eternal, everlasting force is music – brought to you by Javid.
