About
Like many of us, Ximetra, counts at least two places as home. Of Kurdish origin and from the region of Dersim, Ximetra was born and raised in Basel where she is a social worker. Passionate about traveling and curious about diverse cultures, she authentically unites ethnic melodies and rhythms from the east with contemporary electronic music. Feeling the eastern morning sun, her listeners dance to the finest and most explosive Anatolian, Mesopotamian, and Arabic tunes.
