Strange Interactions is a DJ/producer-duo, label and party based in Naarm co-founded by Margarita Bassova (RITA BASS) and Yang Chen (Yangos) in 2021.  

As a DJ-duo the pair have two aliases: Strange Interactions and Strange Attractions. As Strange Interactions they manoeuvre the darker side of underground electronic music ranging from drum and bass to dubstep, UK bass to IDM and all the dark and murky corners in-between. As Strange Attractions they play with lighter sounds they love, with a particularly affinity for left-field house, chubby electro and jazz. 

The label focuses on uplifting female and GNC acts in the music industry, giving creatives the space to share their creativity both locally and eventually globally. SI is also very interested in an artists intention behind their creation, and have a particular fondness for lifting artists who share a strong purpose whether it be sociopolitical, philosophical, personal or emotional. The first release on the label is set for May 5th this year.

Sound Advice on n10.as Radio - September 6th 2020

Lara K (@l_arak) smears the lines of conventional mixing by expertly selecting a non-linear myriad of sounds and feelings, leaping from serious head-bangers to more contemplative and wandering tones.

Dart Echo Mix #005 - Lara K

Superb Mix by the one and only Mels G Club aka Daff G!!!

Recorded live on radio80k 8th December 2020

hundert x Radio 80000 - Mels G Club aka Daff G

Ep 24 of our @quanticaonline residency kicks off with an hr of big beats and hot goodies 💥 from Detroit’s @2lanes aka joey! Remember: 2Lanes is your lanes ❤

In this mix, Joey lays down tracks from his eat coast contemporaries Acemo, Doxa, Russell E.L. Butler, alongside a few of his own tracks, a bunch of hard groove bangers, and a nice one from OE collaborator and Toronto local @58daniel. 

In the second hour resident Ceremonies takes us for her signature bass-filled, punchy 130-140 ride. Stay tuned for heaters from @burglar459, @jockclub, @leeparadise @anabasine and another @58daniel mover! We love it when things work out like that -- a testament to community when mixes recorded without sharing tracklists pull from the same pals :) 

Lately, Joey’s been working on his GBOMS diet (greens beans onions mushrooms and seeds - the good stuff 😋) and finishing up grad school. Recently, his record on Portage Garage Sounds had 200 additional copies pressed. You can pick up a copy here:

Dart Echo continues to explore sounds emerging from circuitry, orchestrated in pure or hybrid forms by genius, and always affecting people, whether alone or with others, viscerally, cerebrally or both. Recalling analogue sound’s definition, our releases are infinitely variable in nature.
