San Francisco-based producer and long time dance music veteran, Behrouz Nazari is difficult to label as he reflects the music he creates and spins. "My sound is impossible to categorize, but if I were to give it my best shot, I would describe it as a Myriad of different subgenres of music I have experimented with during my past 20 years of DJ'ing. It's composed of sexy music incorporating the finer elements of deep house, tribal, and progressive beats, with a touch of electro and minimal techno," Behrouz confesses. This being said, Behrouz has quickly become a highly respected DJ recognized worldwide for his groundbreaking headlining setsat venues such as Pacha in Ibiza, Space in Ibiza, Crobar in Miami, New York and Chicago, Ruby Skye in San Francisco and Red Light in Paris.
