Zarina
Zarina is a multidisciplinary artist and co-founder of the Lifesavers party series, welcoming the likes of AUX88, anu, Mexican Jihad, RP Boo, Shigeto, and more to Brooklyn, NY. Through her inimitable selection, she brings an imaginary future to the dance floor and actualizes it. With dexterity, she scales through dimensions of culture and spirituality while deftly swerving between softness and hard hitting rhythms. -Written by Karen Nicole
She has recorded mixes for Coloring Lessons, The Lot Radio, Printed Matter, NOODS, Radio Raheem Milano, and more, and has released music on several compilation albums. Zarina is also a visual artist, educator, and a member of 8BallCommunity, supporting their radio and zines programming, reflecting her commitment to radical free distribution of ideas, sounds, and books.

Their rooms
One tick a night, on the one axis this page has — Aug 2023, where the listings start, to Jan 2027, the last night anybody has announced. The shaded end has not happened yet.
- Bossa Nova Civic ClubDec 2023 – Feb 20267 nights
- NowadaysAug 2024 – Apr 20265 nights
- Good RoomNov 2025 – Jun 20262 nights
- ParagonDec 2023 – Jan 20252 nights
- Mood RingOct 2023 – Sep 20242 nights
Once each: Qncc, 53 Scott Ave, Pageant, Earthly Delights, Elsewhere, Mansions, Singers, H0L0, Any Thing, Le Bain, Rash, The End and Xpizza. Five of the 36 listings never named a room, and are not counted as one.
Who they play with
Counted from the bills themselves, over bills of twelve names or fewer. A pair's count includes a night that is announced and not yet played; where there is one, the row says when.
