Kinda Deejay is the debut EP from 04reference — a birthday gift to herself, and now to listeners everywhere. Blending raw techno and trance, the EP is shaped by three intense years of navigating recurrent depression. For 04reference, humor and self-irony became more than just coping tools — they were keys to survival. This release channels that duality: emotional yet playful, heavy yet light. If you’ve ever danced through the darkness, this one’s for you.

mixes

Currently, I'm experiencing a depressive episode and an existential crisis. Life feels like I've gotten into a matrix. Music and the visual part should convey the state of this internal struggle with yourself, with your thoughts, and with the world around you. 

Уже какое-то время я переживаю экзистенциальный кризис. Жизнь ощущаться так, будто я попала в матрицу. Музыка и визуальная часть должны передавать состояние внутренней борьбы с самим собой, со своими мыслями и с окружающим миром.

Posthuman is a concept originating in the fields of science fiction, futurology, contemporary art, and philosophy that means a person or entity that exists in a state beyond being human.

Inside an Abandon Warehouse

in this track, I'm reflecting on the state of having anxiety that causes you to feel like you have water in your mouth and makes it difficult to talk.

«In this set, I heard tribal rhythms, and based on them, I used an AI generated silhouette of an ancient creature and small logos collected from those that were also generated, which remind me of the oldest ornaments»

Red Room Sessions is a nonprofit podcast radio project born from a deep love for techno and rave culture — a space where freedom, raw energy, and underground sound collide. Rooted in the origins of the scene, it stays true to the essence: no trends, no filters, just pure sonic exploration. The name Red Room Sessions comes from the red glow often seen in clubs — it sets the tone and makes you feel like you’ve entered another world. It’s not just about music; it’s about the full experience, the atmosphere, the energy.

This episode introduces 04reference — a DJ, music producer, and the founder of Red Room Sessions. Her sound blends raw techno, elements of trance, electro, acid house, and bass, but her core remains rooted in techno. Her sets are an exploration of hypnotic rhythms, tribal grooves, and deep, percussive energy. The name 04reference is a nod to her birthday — April 4 — making it a deeply personal marker, detached from gender or cultural labels and rooted purely in lived experience. Whether behind the decks or producing music, she carves out a sound that stays underground, emotional, and entirely self-defined.
