Wiggle Ft. Ardalan – New Orleans, LA

Friday, November 15th

“WIGGLE” returns to The Rabbit Hole featuring Special Guest ARDALAN (SF/ LA)

Born in Tehran, Ardalan found himself gravitating towards an unlikely passion for music at an early age. Enamored first by traditional Iranian music and classic jazz and rock, Ardalan’s taste began to transform with his childhood years spent moving back and forth from Iran and California. With each intercontinental return, Ardalan grew his treasure trove of mixtapes filled with rare musical gems like gangsta rap, Italo disco, and movie and video game soundtracks – the best of the West.

Naturally, when he permanently returned to California in 2006, his distinct taste in music drew him towards long-lasting friendships, which were born through exchanges of mixtape gold and out seeking underground excursions. Ardalan became a regular of the underground scene in the Bay Area, absorbing the sounds of house and techno from the likes of Solar and Galen at the legendary Sunset Sound System parties, and it wasn’t long before he was hooked. Full of his signature charm, spark of energy, and an insatiable curiosity for left-of-center music, soon he found his way to a fateful BBQ in San Francisco, a legendary party that is largely known as the origin story lore of the Dirtybird crew. Immediately, the crew took to young Ardy like family.

As he continued on his DJ and production journey he eventually released on that very same Dirtybird crew’s label not once but several times, and has built up a library of releases on Christian Martin’s Trippy Ass Technologies and Walker & Royce’s, Rules Don’t Apply labels.Almost two decades since those early Dirtybird BBQ days, Ardy continues to be a favored act on line-ups who trust in his ability to fire up a crowd with his DJ prowess and ability to make eclectic selections feel right at home on the dance floor. He’s played at Coachella, Dirtybird Campout, CRSSD, Secret Garden, Desert Hearts and at esteemed venues like Space Miami, New York’s Output, Detroit’s TV Lounge, and soon…New Orleans’s very own Rabbit Hole.
