Ascetic Saga is a Kyiv-based DJ whose sound balances rhythmic drive, deep textures, and melodic Afro House. Inspired by the emotive storytelling of Keinemusik and the percussive richness of African-rooted genres, his sets blend energy with refined musical sensitivity.

Although just a year into his journey behind the decks, Ascetic Saga already crafts immersive musical narratives through Afro Tech, Melodic Afro, Deep House, and beyond. His mixes stand out for their sense of subtle tension, groove, and an unmistakable love for storytelling.

He is currently focused on DJing and curates Jumanne Sessions — a weekly mix series where modern Afro aesthetics meet introspective moods. 

Each mix is a step in shaping his unique identity: precise, poetic, and constantly evolving.

Ascetic Saga — діджей із Києва, чий звук балансує на межі ритмічного драйву, глибини й мелодійного Afro House. Надихаючись емоційною оповідальністю Keinemusik та ритмічною глибиною африканських жанрів, його сети поєднують енергію та витончену музичну чутливість.

Попри те, що за пультом він лише рік, Ascetic Saga вже створює занурювальні музичні подорожі крізь Afro Tech, Melodic Afro, Deep House та інші стилі. Його мікси вирізняються чутливим підходом до музики — любов’ю до сторітейлінгу, тонкої напруги та ритмічного розрядження.

Зараз він зосереджений на діджеїнгу та курує Jumanne Sessions — щотижневу серію міксів, у яких сучасна афро-естетика переплітається з інтроспективними настроями. 

Кожен мікс — це крок до формування власної ідентичності: точної, поетичної й такої, що постійно розвивається.
