I’m Smokey, 17 years in the game, from watching Bandish Projekt in the crowd to sharing the stage with him. Raised with less, but always found more in music and giving back—like donating to Indore schools or chatting with girls about menstrual health. My cook, Nisha Tai, is family, and taking her to Banaras was pure joy. I’m a Maharashtrian girl, playing my own Marathi Drum & Bass Mix at festivals—even Indonesia! Spreading love, always grateful. TEDx speaker too, but mostly just me. ### My work - **DJ & Music Producer**: I play DJ sets, live Ableton gigs, and produce music. Also do workshops and TEDx talks. - **My Sound, My Soul**: I’m dnbnaari, mixing Indian Classical, Bollywood, and Marathi folk with Drum & Bass. IndiraaMusic is my House/Techno side. - **The Vibe I Bring**: Festivals, college fests, clubs—I’m there. Expect Asian Underground DJ set, Bolly-EDM fusion, custom bass music edits. - **Teaching & Sharing**: Ableton production workshop, DJ techniques, all about sharing and growing together.
