Winter Solstice dreams… with Zakia

Zakia marks the longest, darkest night with a selection of sounds for the Winter Solstice. There’s frosty folk, icy ambience and some old classics to warm your cockles.

DJ, broadcaster, writer and dreamer Zakia Sewell provides the soundtrack to your dreams - playing music to ease the mind, soothe the soul, and open portals to new dimensions…

This weekend brought the Winter Solstice - the longest, darkest night of the year - and to mark the occasion, Zakia shares dreamy sounds for the bleak midwinter. Come for the alternative festive soundtrack, stay for the bells - there’ll be selections of frosty folk, icy ambience and of course some old classics to warm your cockles from the likes of Marvin Gaye and Joni Mitchell. Plus plenty of tracks to shine a light through these dark days, with music around rebirth, renewal and the return of the light.
