🔉 Exactly two weeks ago in CONTACT on Proton Radio I had a guest who moved my soul and once again my belief in the motto "Progressive Music for Progressive People"

Her name is Wendy Wustlich known as W&DY.
W&DY is an Amsterdam-based DJ and producer who takes her listeners on a joyful journey with her sensitive & bold flows.
W&DY combines elements of progressive house with organic, techno & atmospheric sounds and emphasis on melodies & dirty baselines.W&DY is part of the Movement Bookings (GR) talent roster, alongside artists such as Alex O'Rion, Hobin Rude, LORRAÎNNE, Paul Anthonee, Tash, and other gifted producers.
In 2022, W&DY was invited by Club NL to host its own club night, and thus AMPERSAND was born. AMPERSAND is a 6-hour event filled with beautiful gems, feel-good melodies, and dirty basslines where people can feel, heal, and connect. Shares the night with guests she adores like Tash & Miss Dominguez..on AMPERSAND we love to surprise & create a range of emotions and feelings for our listeners, a unique and immersive musical experience.
W&DY's latest project is part of LIA: Ladies I Admire, an inspiring initiative by Amber Long that empowers talented women in the music industry worldwide.
In 2010, it was the nightlife scene of Greece that understood the soul of progressive music. From this moment on W&DY discovered her passion for progressive house music. It felt magical back in the day & it's still magical.In 2011, she released her first track, "Voices Of Patton," with Stage by H and Tash, who taught her to produce, and the release immediately made it to Hernan Cattaneo's charts. Since then, W&DY has had great experiences playing alongside artists such as Guy J, Pole Folder, Matias Chilano, Dimitri, Clay van Dijk a.o, and has performed at prestigious venues such as Paradiso, RLGC, La Rocca, and Café d'Anvers, to name a few.

ABOUT OTTAWA PROG VIBES

Alain M.'s weekly podcast, Ottawa Prog Vibes, is now in its 7th year and is a recognized presence among Canadian Electronica shows. The show has two goals: showcase progressive DJ's from Ottawa (and Canada) to a global audience, and bring international DJ guests to an Ottawa (and Canadian) audience). 

Alain plays three out of every 10 shows. His mixing has been noted as particularly creative and smooth, a skill that allow his sets to be experienced as seamless stories.

An offshoot series, called Mellow Prog Vibes, is released every two weeks and focuses on more chill vibes, slightly more downtempo, to create a more relaxed vibe. It is curated by OPV resident DJ Boraa, who plays every other episode, with guest DJs playing the alternate.

Ottawa Prog Vibes and Mellow Prog Vibes are broadcast weekly on UK's Saturo Radio, New York's Chill Lover Radio and Ottawa's Blast the Radio.


ABOUT ALAIN M.

Alain M. started dj’ing in his early 20s and played a variety of clubs, big and small, in Ottawa, Montreal and Kingston. From teenage influences in progressive rock, metal and blues, and later New York and Chicago house, Dutch techno and early trance, his style has evolved towards the more melodic, infectiously rhythmic and thoughtful sounds of progressive house, with a particular fondness for Argentinian productions.

Over his 30+ years as a DJ, Alain has cultivated a signature melodic, danceable, and thoughtful style with enough surprises to keep even the most devout listeners on their toes. His live events, organized only a few times annually, are a hypotonic, transformational experience for attendees, putting the Nation’s Capital on the map for electronic music. He has organized and collaborated in a number of events including Levitar, Sunday Meet & Beat, Sit-Down Sessions, Shake my Thursday and Expeditions, attracting a thoughtful crowd who stay mesmerized by his melodic, danceable sets, always peppered with delightfully unexpected sonic elements.

Alain M. is also a guest DJ submitting regular sets to several radio and online outlets. He is a resident on X-Beat Radio (France, Belgium). He was a monthly resident on Abyss Sound Experience on QuestLondon Radio in 2021 and on UK-based Beach Radio between 2021 and 2024.

He has appeared as a guest on a number of shows in several countries including the UK, Argentina, Spain, Poland, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Peru, Turkey, Israel and the US. In Canada, he has been featured as a guest DJ at several events by Ottawa-based Music.Art.Ppl, on CHUO FM’s Vanguard Pulse Radio, on CKCU FM’s Lost In Bass and Mapped Out Radio, on Montreal’s Afterhour radio show and on Toronto’s ION radio show.
