@regfant

Introduce yourself? Preferred pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself? 

I’m Liv (or Olivia, Regular, or Regfant), she/her/they/them. I’m from Victoria BC, living in Montreal. One fun fact about myself is that I paint dog portraits.

How is everything going with you right now?

I’m good yeah, still in one piece after winter and 5 months of curfew. 

What is summer looking like for you?

I’m working on kind of a debut Regfant album with Canadian label Specials, as well as a solo EP for my label Plush Records (with D.Tiffany) — I’ll also be doing some mixes, playing some gigs (Piknic Electronik on July 4th), and looking at some dates for NYC and LA! I’ve got some French school in July, and I’m going to visit family for the first time in a while..

How did you get your DJ name?

I was taking notes in my first year art history class and I was writing some words on the side of the page — regular and fantasy were two of them. I needed a name for my soundcloud page (2010) so I picked that name, and it stuck.

What change do we need in the dance scene post pandemic?

In a perfect dance music scene, there would be a variety of people and venues that throw events in harmony. I’m hoping the pandemic shines light on how important dancing, music and entertainment is.. How it brings people to cities and out of their houses and makes the world go ‘round. I think a lot of blame and negative connotations are associated with dance music, bars, clubs, afterhours, and having fun in general. *In a perfect world* the post pandemic has more leniency for afterhours, art spaces, DIY venues, clubs and bars. I hope more people take initiative and open their own spaces and studios and collectives and get shit popping again. I guess a perfect dance music world wouldn’t rely solely on big institutional clubs. I don’t really know a fair solution, but I hope our cities don’t just turn into a giant condominium complex. I hope that the importance of entertainment helps protect arts and music instead of villainizing it. Maybe  there are laws, rules, clauses and sanctions that are in place to help the arts and music scene post pandemic. 

Who currently inspires your music-wise?

Hmmm… my friends.

What other activities have you dipped into with a break from djing?

Doing a lot more painting (@sweet__escapes), cooking, baking (started a gluten free instagram @_gf_af), thrifting, cleaning. I got a big loft style studio with some friends and I go there a lot and hang out. 

What is your most recent favorite DJ mix and why?

CFCF’s Shift Radio mix. Maybe it was because I was there in person,but it just had good vibes and the sun was setting and it felt like a party. 

And Will DiMaggio’s latest lot radio mix. Always love his mixes! Nice range of deep cuts. Bless.

It feels good.. What else is there?

Any cool releases upcoming for you this year? 

Plush 003 EP
Specials “New Glow” LP
Rendezvous Remix EP
E-Prime Remix 
Earth Clan Remix

We are gassed to announce for the first time in our 21 year history, that we have 2 new residents joining us for 2023, one those being the evergreen One Glove NTS Radio host Macca. He steps up for #2 of our mix series with a mix, which in his own words is:

‘A nice chance to step away from my usual breakfast show endeavours and lay down a mix in one take without the safety net of a microphone or the chatroom crew to fall back on. This mix features, and is inspired by, friends and family who’ve put me onto music that consistently hits the soul. Every single track has aired at some point on One Glove in the past 15 months so it’s equally good for waking up to as it is for getting down on the floor. Just move ya feet and enjoy it - don’t overthink it.’

Macca plays the Secretsundaze Residential party on the 11th March at Corsica Studios, going b2b with Sofie K, and our other incredible new resident Cosmo Sofi will be going b2b with Norsicaa.

Secretsundaze Mix Series #2: Macca

Nicola is joined by Corrina & Jorge this time, playing some records ahead of their Public Record gig.
