"This is a live DJ mix of AFX classics, a few edits, some material of his lesser known aliases and a bunch of unreleased tracks from his Soundcloud dump. Aphex Twin has been a big influence on my whole musical journey and career as a DJ and now a big influence on my journey into my first steps into production and my debut EP - Congratulations. This feels like a full circle moment to have my debut record sold on Bleep considering I used to work there..." - @rajirags

Here is a recording from the up and coming AZA recorded at Midwest Freaks last December in Madison, where IT, Intellephunk and Remain in Night united for a secret warehouse party. How can you explain being lost in the Midwest and spending all night with non stop rave alchemy in a secret warehouse? This type of thing really fills you with hope for the future. 

AZA is techno as a living being. She was born in SF to parents who had immigrated from Trinidad and Tobago of the West Indies. She grew up within music, from the music of the Caribbean (ranging from Dub and Reggae to Calypso) to the sounds of Jazz and Funk, which led her to singing in operas resulting in a college scholarship for voice. Her greatest revelation came when her mother took her to Movement and she experienced techno. She says, “I feel blissful when I create and play techno. It takes me into inner space travel. It is a place where I feel safe. The possibilities feel so endless in my techno explorations.” Experience that techno bliss with this moment of AZA at Midwest Freaks.

Our ‘Streaming From Isolation’ series is fundraising for The Global FoodBanking Network - whose work providing emergency support to people locked in poverty is crucial at this time.

As part of the series, our long standing partner Ballantine's has committed a fund in the form of 20 grants to be distributed to community-driven collectives around the world. These grants will be given to each collective to distribute as they feel best to support under threat artists and those most in need within their immediate community. This support is critical over the coming months whilst COVID-19 restrictions are in place and impacting many artists’ ability to do what they love and to make a living.

Weekly takeover days of Boiler Room’s channels will feature performances and sets programmed by these collectives from isolation. Broadcast to the world from artists’ homes and private spaces, these transmissions are a way to stay connected while apart.

Club Music artist luz (they/them) is a neuroqueer DJ, promoter, curator, radio-host, and community organizer. Co-founder of Berlin-based queer collective Room 4 Resistance, they’re also a member of Ecology of Care and Unsound Festival’s Mutual Respect team.

Their practice of nightlife is anchored in queer feminist spaces, grassroots organizing, community care, harm reduction and experimentation. As a DJ, their ever-evolving sound is at the crossroads of different Club Music styles and influences: UK, bass, breaks, experimental, polyrhythmic, leftfield, D’n’B, House, deep techno, Detroit electro, and more. They enjoy building narratives across genres and eras that resonate with their present moods and feelings. Their favorite dancefloors are intimate, healing, sweaty, filled with queer joy, cute weirdos and misfits from all paths of life.   

Over the years, luz has performed at countless international venues and festivals, highlights include Panorama Bar and Tresor (Berlin), De School (Amsterdam), Et Andet Sted (Copenhagen), Hot Mass (Pittsburgh), Movement’s Industry Brunch (Detroit), La Station Gare Des Mines (Paris), C12 (Brussels), 5 Miles (London) as well as Festivals such as Nyege Nyege (Jinja, Uganda), Unsound (Krakow), CTM (Berlin) and Horst (Brussels).

Listening closely. An independent platform for contemporary culture.
