Introduce yourself? Pronouns?  1 fun fact about yourself?

Hiii I’m Kia, (people often ask me what my real name is so I thought I’d specify that). Pronouns are she/her. 

Fun fact - my name is a car dealership (Kia Sydney), and people often think that’s a joke too. My Croatian grandfather changed his last name to Sydney when he moved there in the 50s as a means of getting a job in what was a very (and still for the most part is) racist society. 

Biggest musical influence from childhood?

Well when I was going up I played the piano, clarinet and percussion (played the glockenspiel in the school band lol) so that definitely led me to be musically minded from a young age. When I was 13/14 I remember getting into electronic music via big idm producers like aphex twin, four tet and aleksi perala. Because I was into really melodic stuff I think it was the first time I’d heard it done in an electronic way and I remember finding that really exciting. 

Favorite DJ mixing trick? 

Cobblestone jazz - India in me. It’s not particularly easy to mix per say, but it’s an insane 14 minute roller that completely shifts vibe in the middle, so I always play it if I feel like I need a breather or an energy shift in a set.

Write us a haiku about this mix… 

Sounds of travelling
Australia and beyond
People, places, moods

(Sorry that was really hard lol)

If you had to go back in time music wise what era would it be and why?

Early 2000s. So much good tech house. 

If you had to describe yourself as a flower, which one would it be and why?

Sunflower. I flourish in the summertime and I really really hate winter. 

What is your favorite party/collective where you reside and why?

Vortex <3 (https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/Bi3dZPdKhT2QCHmC7 )

femme collective consisting of my friends Meg + nenagh, who book the best lineups. We also do a collab party animalia x vortex and the parties always have a really special energy. 

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

More community run clubs and more people who listen and participate in the scene understanding the importance of community in dance music generally.

For our 11th release, pioneering selector Andrew "Lovefingers" Hogge presents a mix that feels like we’re listening to records with him in his backyard in LA. The music is cinematic, intimate, and easy to love. Perfect for the weather—inside and out—as summer blends into autumn.

“Some of my all time favorite oddballs. Not too much mixing, an ideal mix for just hanging out. Summertime vibes.”

Andrew's deft, intuitive approach to DJing extends beyond the decks: He runs the esteemed ESP Institute label and is a well-established graphic designer and creative director. His work is infused with a warmth and enthusiasm that was readily apparent in our exchanges as we discussed this mix.

89 crates was written almost by accident and has come to embody our sonic sharp left turn. the title is a nod to the milk crates we sat on in the Sunday morning sun across what feels like 89 months in three different back-yards while the song bubbled in our brains
