DIM263 - Vlada

The next podcast is a special one for me!  And here’s why:

- Dj Rino has a natural instinctive talent towards the craftsmanship of deejaying. 
- This 27 year old Brusseleir has a deep essential love for underground (dance) music and club culture. 
- He also has a soft spot for tunes with a psychedelic, stretched-out groove.
- I truly believe in him as an artist and friend.

This summer Dj Rino was booked at the psytrance and rave festival called Space Safari deep down in the south of Belgium to play a 3h after hour dj set at the Zodiak stage on Sunday morning.

I knew it was an important summer gig for him and he had been busy with his selection and set order for months so I traveled with him, set up my tent, went to sleep & woke up at 7am to hit the misty gray morning muddy dance floor and was blown away instantly. He kept the vibes deep and layered, super balanced and controlled, sharp mixing and a big big smile on his face. The morning sun came to say hello during the last hour and we all shined on. 

Thanks to Dj Rino for your amazing performance, your carefully selected music and full dedication that shapes the Belgian scene at this very moment. Shout out to Space Safari and Tweede Asem for the recording of this delicious psychedelic breakfast. Let’s travel among the stars together with Dj Rino.

The Basic Moves Of ... DJ RINO (live at Space Safari 2023)

Vlada (@playvlada) has been playing all over the globe since just 18 years of age. Russia-born but Berlin-based for many years now, her sound is defined by a long, winding mixing style and is built on hypnotic basslines that slowly but surely zone you out. 

That very much comes out in this week's mix which initially locks you into a signature meditative pace but then builds with smart gear shifts and technical mixes. There are acid flashes to liven things up, bright synths spiraling around electrifying techno, broken beats to keep things moving then more stark industrial and metallic textures that place you at the heart of a strobe-lit and floor. It is another masterful mix full of must-find tunes from this ever more essential selector.

Love On The Rocks  - Inner Lakes - 24 Mar 2025

I had a niice buzz recently to record a mix! Here it is… I hope you enjoy the tripp ❣️ + ☮️

Spring Forward  🌱

Chez has a style that is hard to put your finger on, as Rio 017 well demonstrates. Recorded on the opening night of Bonanza, Chez kicked the terrace into action with a chuggy but cheerful selection of swampy groovers. 

Moving seamlessly from heads down tech house to breaks and EBM-ish numbers, Rio 017 is peppered with flecks of acid, swaying basslines and plenty of character. 

One to keep the summer flowing xx
