Hutch presents Aida - 14 August 2023

Before moving to San Francisco, Iranian-Canadian artist AIDA got her start in one of the world's more unlikely, yet nourishing, rave scenes tucked away in the southwest corner of Canada: Vancouver. There, amongst the basement raves, forest parties and yeast-perfumed gigs on top of bakeries, she found a home amidst a small but strong scene of record-digging minimal lovers, finding power in their pure passion for music. This is where she started, though over time her sound has developed along with a lot of the minimal scene, touching on electro, breaks and progressive house.

The latter is the focus of her RA Podcast, which comes amidst a year-long sabbatical from her dayjob to focus on music. It seems like the extra time is paying off: she's playing out more than ever, around the world, and playing more kinds of music, too. This mix revolves entirely around her love for the original wave of progressive house, gathered from records chosen over a period of weeks and then put together with a firm but idiosyncratic touch, as she explains below. It's as much a testament to the timelessness of this music as the cyclical nature of dance music, though it's also a bit of history lesson, a reminder of the broad world of sounds and rhythms beyond the au courant revival.

When she's not DJing, AIDA also runs a record label rooted in activism around her Iranian heritage. Inspired partly by the Woman Life Freedom movement in Iran, her imprint Apranik Records focuses on artists of Iranian and Persian heritage from the country and across the diaspora, as well as raising money for charities and nonprofits.

@aida-dj employs pairs old skool house with new skool techno in preparation for Horst 2024

"This mix is part of my closing set recorded at UMI Brussels in March this year. You will hear vintage house, progressive house, and tech house gems in there which I'd bought in a record shop in Barcelona the week before. I blended those records with newer techno-leaning releases that are pitched down to match the tempo and energy of the house records. I picked this set as my Horst warm-up mix because it’s the perfect foreshadowing of what I'm preparing for at the festival: cheeky vocals, percussion, and vintage acid/tech/progressive house."

Napkin 01 - Black Magic

"A beginning to the journey often travelled yet never ceased
sudden bursts of colour in her surroundings
mirages from far away places where magic is black–
Unknown, hard to trust 
whispers, sounds of distant lands, whirling
around the sides of her head
deceiving her eyes back to that far away land–"
-Aida

Napkn is a mini-mix series by Aida inspired by the short-lived brilliance of ideas that pop into our heads and evolve into napkin sketches and scribbles. With each mix she creates a napkin sketch and a poem scribbled to the theme of the mix.

Aida @ The Lot Radio 02 - 23 - 2019

This is a recording from my set at Bass Coast Festival 2019 playing on the Slay Bay Stage on Friday night. This set was considered one of top 5 performances at the festival by @resident-advisor, described as " a non-chronological journey through dance music history, starting dubbed-out and hypnotic before unspooling into psychedelic acid techno and vintage rave tracks with stabs and hoover basslines." Hope you enjoy!

AIDA | Bass Coast Festival(RA key performance)

My set from @redlightradio on a cloudy October afternoon. It’s a sandwich of breaks and techno wrapped in world music; starting with an edit of a classic Iranian vocalist’s peom laid on a lovely atmospheric background and ending with a 1973 Brazillian folklore record I found in Buenos Aires. Enjoy <3
