Sarah Shivarani, better known as Shiva, an Iranian-American LA-based DJ-producer, has presented her latest single, “TALA.” 

Inspired by her Persian roots and translated to “Gold” in Farsi, “TALA” draws from Iranian classical art, experimental electronic music, and the act of using sound as a divination tool, inviting listeners along the journey of inner alchemy. 

The release caps a 12-month transformational journey with Shiva’s health and wellness, documented on Yoga Journal, which has had a profound shift on her craft and lifestyle as a whole. 

This new direction reflects the influences her father gave to her as a youth. “My dad was constantly playing Iranian classical and pop music in the house,” Shiva explains. “He loved to sing famous Iranian songs while playing the keyboard. My soul is soaked in the music.” 

“TALA” follows the I Am Love EP, released in February of this year.
