There is no better way to kick off 2022 than in the most glittery way possible. For Silky Session 07, we’re thrilled to welcome the glitter-queen herself - Shady Lady - to the decks. 

With a background in dance and theatre performance Shady Lady’s sets are far from ordinary. She is driven to make the dance floor move as much as she does behind the decks, with a push for palpable and joyous tracks. A typical set for her is teaming with emotion, colour, a sense of kitsch aesthetic but with an eclectic knowledge of disco, 80s and house music. Shady Lady has slotted herself into the grooves of the Amsterdam dance music scene one boogie at a time. Having moved from Australia to Amsterdam 3 years ago she has now co-founded Dice Nights, has her own livestream show (The Shady Lady Show on Lovelee Radio) and has played for clubs across the Netherlands. Keep your eyes peeled on this Disco Demon.

In her Silky Session, Shady Lady takes us on a journey through tropical disco jungles full of rowdy grooves, bongo beats and cosmic layers. Enjoy!

Who the hell is Donna Tony, you might ask. Well, he is not fully sure either. In a way, he is the new kid on the block. In another, he is an ancient figure having been deeply involved in the music scene, hosted parties and DJ sessions in Amsterdam and Sweden, for many years as the founder of Silky Tunes. 

Born in Sweden and delivered to the world by a Finnish mother, the first seeds of Donna Tony and his label Silky Tunes, were sown deep into the colorful jungles of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2016. Influenced by his journey throughout Brazilian landscapes, his time in Copenhagen and Amsterdam, Silky Tunes quickly grew into a party and music label in its own right, and the perfect platform for Donna Tony to keep up with his roaming spirit for the rest of his life.

Like all good things in life, everything comes back full circle. In his sets, Donna Tony draws on his passion for indigenous cultures and spiritual contexts, especially influenced by productions picked up from the southern hemisphere. Drawing from a playful mixture of 90’s transcendental house, disco, boogie, and overall wavy and floaty cues, a typical Donna Tony set is built on the balance between the dark and the bright side of dance music - always produced with a gentle touch of Donna and a punch of Tony.

‘What the Hell is Home?’ by Conor Ef is a real NI-pop song - political electropop in a Northern Irish accent, with a touch of Irish traditional folk. It samples the resignation speech of Arlene Foster, Northern Ireland’s former first minister, spotlighting the hypocrisy of politicians there. The lyrics ponder what a home nation is and who it’s meant for, since it excludes so many. Conor delves into the feelings of despair that home can provoke, making you want to fly away or stream some nonsense to escape them. They shed light on who in the NI political realm can lead us forward, honouring our peace agreement.
Production is minimal, leaving room for Conor’s political commentary. The track was co-produced by Conor and Martin Hollis (Ed Sheeran, Adele...), with the harp playing a central role, bringing listeners to the emerald isle, but synths are up front too, referencing Conor’s current home, Berlin.
Expect more in this grain from Conor Ef, as well as more introspective, sad, slow dance floor fillers.
