Wildfire Oxen Shannon Copper In the this podcast I will share personal experiences through my life’s journey. I am hoping to uplift and inspire the next person to do the same wether it be a positive or negative story. It must be shared. My belief is that we have the power to change the narratives of our stories for the better. Rev. Hooman Rev. Hooman Hello friend! I’m Rev. Hooman—“Rev.” as in Revelation (and also Revenue, Revised, and Revvvv!).I craft inner mystical journeys through sound—blending Melodic House, Deep House, Afro House, NuDisco, and Techno (because at heart, I’m still a techno kid).My sets are rooted in tribal and international rhythms, shaped by my Middle Eastern and Latin influences growing up. Every performance is a ritual of presence—designed for embodiment, release, and emotional resonance.I love creating music in live, immersive environments, where I can record and blend the crowd energy into the mix. Since I’m usually behind the decks, I don’t always get to chat face-to-face for long (the track must be changed!)—but when I revisit the set on headphones, I often discover spaces I didn’t even know I opened.I’ve had the honor of opening for some of my musical heroes: GoldCap, Sabo, Be Svenden, Bedouin, Unders, Britta, Miyagi, The Soul Brothers, and Behrouz.If you’re creating a space for movement, magic, and ENTIRE BIBLE READING Elena Hello everyone!

I declare that through this, you will find strength and rest from the Lord. I also hope you'll join and stay with me until the end. I know it won't be fast and easy but I believe that as I start, God will bring it into What's Poppin' Alyndria Johnson What’s poppin’ y’all? Welcome to my thoughts! My hope is to keep you all entertained and informed all at once. Now I must warn you all my thoughts and opinions can be A LOT to take in at times. I may make you laugh, cry, sad, or even may piss you the hell off a bit, but my goal is to make you think in a different perspective. We don’t have to agree as long as the opinion can be seen from another point of view.
