Dj, Event Curator, Community builder and Researcher, LIONESSA, expresses her Queer Egyptian-Canadian identity through unlikely blends of North African percussion Arabic scales and vocals that drive storytelling coupled with pulsating bass and an apathy towards any one specific genre of electronic music. Her selections are filled with hypnotic world sounds of darbuka and global sound influences. The purpose is to weave sounds that paint a journey of curiosity and questioning. Questioning of times, expectations and belonging.
