Communion Podcast - 2025

For our first Ak Family journey, what a pleasure to welcome Apsāya aka “AP_Sick", based in Lyon, 
she builts one of our favourite go-to spaces, and excels in the way to tell
the most beautiful side of electronic music.

Apsāya aka “AP_Sick" has crafted her musical identity whithin a realm she has always envisioned
as a fluid and eclectic.
Drawn to the gentle embrace of ambient sounds as well as the frenetic beats of techno
that is both rich, agressive and irresistibly danceable.
She places the emotions evoked by her music at the forefront of her artistic vision.
Her personality shines through her musical choices: intensity, sensuality, and contradictions
are ever-present in her work.

Dive into a world of suffocated thoughts intertwined. 
In this space, memories dance, between joy and sadness, to the rhythm of unfinished dreams.

Akf Podcast 001 - Apsāya aka “AP_Sick" - Thoughts of the speechless mind

To celebrate the 100th episode of Communion, we are honored to feature a very special guest: Aleja Sánchez, a Colombian DJ and producer who has left an indelible mark on the Latin American techno scene. Founder of Northallsen Records and collaborator with labels such as Semántica and Affin, her music stands out for its fusion of organic soundscapes, hypnotic, experimental, and acoustic sounds, blended with the essence of techno.  

Based in Barcelona, Aleja Sánchez has dedicated much of her time to exploring new production techniques and delving into the art of sound design, constantly enriching and evolving her musical approach. This set is a reflection of her artistic growth and the mystical essence that defines her music, making it a perfect tribute to this special 100th episode of Communion.

Communion #100 - Aleja Sanchez

Pour cette première émission Les Sinueuses, plongez au coeur d&amp#39;une forêt lugubre où les basses grondent et les rythmes envoutants transforment l&amp#39;obscurité en danse.

Plongez dans les abîmes les plus sombres de votre esprit, au rythme des pulsations hypnotiques d&amp#39;une tribe expérimentale, grasse et lugubre. Pensé comme un rituel sensuel et  intense, ce set vous invitera autant à la transe qu&amp#39;à l&amp#39;introspection.


Les Sinueuses  w/ AP_Sick (10/04/25)

Easter Week 2025. We hosted our second live music and light show in Barcelona, featuring a series of DJ sets. This time, the night closed with an electrifying performance by Pillen & Camu from Madrid. Here's a glimpse of what their set sounded like.

Akf Podcast 005 - Apsāya aka “AP_Sick" -  Echoes of the Five Elements

Enter the forest
A journey through a living forest, where memory lingers in every breath
Sounds evolve from ambient stillness to a raw, tribal pulse — a forgotten ritual rising from the earth
Drift beyond the five ancestral elements — wood, fire, earth, metal, and water — into the space where memory and rhythm become one 

Apsāya aka “AP_Sick" is a resolutely mysterious and modern DJ, oscillating between powerful, enigmatic tribal techno and dark, voluptuous ambient sets.
A true sonic storyteller, AP_Sick leads us into a deep, visceral ritual where intensity, sensuality, and contradiction are ever-present in her creations.
