The World Is Sound

dj khalid – global mystic podcast + Gig Alert!


Hey People,

Wow its been ages since my last post, too many things going on that have consumed a lot of my time but I’m back so to start it back is a fabulous podcast mix by friend DJ Khalid.

He started off doing Sufi vocals (from the West African tradition) with a group, through my involvement with The International Sufi School – The school of Peace and Service. Through this, they performed at various inter-faith events around the UK as well as Paris France and Dakar Senegal.

DJ Khalid has always been interested in how music is able to help the listener connect to a deeper place within.

He got into radio after sitting in on a friend’s late night show on a Asian commercial station. Since then, He has started off as a volunteer on hospital radio and then worked with a community radio station where he is still involved on an operational level, as well as a brief stint on Asian commercial radio.

DJ Khalid  started DJ’ing a couple of years ago, mostly into alternative sounds. Biggest gig to date was playing along side Bobby Friction and Nerm at Vibe Bar a couple of months ago.
