After seven years of releasing original music, Dixi unveils her most ambitious project yet: “SOUNDS LIKE”, a bold, genre-blending EP that bridges cultures, languages, and sonic worlds. Released on November 14, 2025, the EP fuses Indian classical roots with global influences, spanning EDM, Afrobeats, Pop, and Bollywood, creating a listening experience that moves both the body and soul.

A Sonic Journey Through Love, Loss, and Liberation

Dixi describes the EP as an exploration of love in all its forms — from the innocence of first love to heartbreak, self-discovery, and ultimately a powerful, untamed expression of feminine energy. Each track represents a different stage of love, turning emotion into rhythm and celebration.

“I wanted to create songs unlike anything people have heard before,” Dixi says. “Classical, African, Indian, EDM, Pop, and Bollywood influences all blend seamlessly to form a universal sound. Even though the roots stem from Indian music, the feel is global.”

Produced entirely by longtime collaborator Naveen Kumar, the EP showcases their undeniable musical chemistry. Dixi adds:

“Naveen understands how to translate emotion into sound in a way that feels completely magical.”
