EDM and trance — Diva Hall of Fame entry for 2014. This episode of The Diva Series honors Nadia Ali, tracing her rise from frontwoman and songwriter of Iio to a solo artist whose voice and songs became staples of the club decade. Party Favorz presents a 90‑minute mix that collects originals and defining remixes to showcase why she’s celebrated in the Diva Hall of Fame.
