For all Parvané's fans: she will be performing at The Crowd Test Festival — the first-ever Art and Music Festival by The Sandy Times — on November 16, 2024, at Monkey Bar, Dubai. So get ready for the best music experience of your life!
Tickets are available here
Ever find yourself needing something to listen to (like, your ears are craving it), but you have no idea what? I know the feeling. It happens to me every time I go for a run — the right vibe totally depends on my mood, and if the music doesn’t hit just right, the run falls flat. Same thing when I am struggling to focus — sometimes music is the only thing that helps.
So, in my quest for fresh tracks for every mood, I reached out to the amazing Parvané Barret. I knew she would have spot-on recommendations, and she nailed it! Go ahead and save these tracks for yourself.
What to listen to in the car
Parvané: I love listening to club-style, high-energy tracks while driving; it lifts my mood and makes me ignore the people who cannot drive in Dubai, haha!
What to listen to when you are home alone
Parvané: When I am alone at home, I listen to pretty much anything, but I discovered this track recently, and it resonates with me a lot.
What to listen to while cooking
Parvané: Groovy, chill beats.
What to listen to in the morning
Parvané: I usually like to start my day with tracks similar to this one or some lo-fi/ jazzy beats. It helps me focus.
What to listen to when you are in a bad mood
Parvané: BPM on fire.
What to listen to when you are in a great mood
Parvané: A classic one; it makes me so happy and instantly makes my day better. Chicago House forever!
What to listen to when you have no idea what to listen to
Parvané: I usually listen to meditation music or some relaxing sounds. Or sometimes nothing at all.
What to listen to when everything is annoying you
Parvané: This makes it better.
What to listen to when you see hundreds of messenger notifications on your phone but don’t want to respond
Parvané: A Housy, disco beat goes a long way for me. If this is playing, expect slow replies.
What to listen to calm down
Parvané: Back to my Iranian roots with this one. It always makes me emotional.
What to listen to but never admit you did
Parvané: I would admit this over and over again.
