Recorded at 428 stage at Wonderfruit Festival in 2024.

Aurora Halal is a producer, DJ and creator of Brooklyn’s influential Mutual Dreaming party series & the Sustain-Release festival.

Shadowy and psychedelic, her hardware live & DJ sets have a hazy sensuality and metallic dance floor intensity that’s at turns playful, dark, euphoric and emotionally vulnerable. In all her projects, she treats dance music as an are­na for trans­for­ma­tion and since 2010, her events have been root­ed in an under­ground, DIY approach that push­es for­ward-think­ing sounds, pro­duc­tion, and ideas. She’s spent the last 10 years tour­ing like-mind­ed clubs, raves, and fes­ti­vals world­wide and gained a rep­u­ta­tion for pow­er­ful, unique per­for­mances that work both the body and mind. She’s 4 years into a res­i­den­cy at NYC’s Nowa­days, is a reg­u­lar at Berghain and pre­vi­ous­ly De School.

Spanning music, community and activism, Syrian-born, Holland-based Fafi Abdel Nour brings a voice that’s as shaped by Arabic heritage as his queerness. In this space between two worlds, his sound combines a host of influences from 90s house to breaks to body music, and dares to imagine better futures through an affirmation of community and those who live on society’s margins. Upbeat and rolling at steady stride, his sets pull off the kind of sonic miracles you’d hope for on the best of nights, euphoric and sensual house with a heavy measure of lucid percussion. He’s a Club Raum resident and the mastermind behind some of OOST, Groningen’s most hyped and queer-focused nights, HOMOOST and later, BUTTS, further vehicles for human connection, spaces for dreaming. Otherness is the fuel that fires his mission, a need to contribute his voice and create inclusive and safe spaces for people to come together. From Dekmantel to Panorama Bar, Lowlands to Bassiani, Fafi brings his positive message to world, a sure testament to music’s radical power for change. For Bassiani Podcast 286, this rising star delivers 67 minutes of transcendent and soaring house, a journey through shimmering synths and liberating melodies, a peak-time studio mix and firm reminder that for Fafi, ‘love is the message’.
