Soumaya Phéline at Dekmantel Selectors 2022

Soumaya Pheline explores CDJism/turntablism with a focus on DJing's performative aspect, redefining CDJs, turntables, and mixers as creative instruments. Her cinematic approach transforms tracks into narrative tools, crafting immersive sonic storytelling.

Jamming plays a central role, generating a rich pool of audio and visual material for sampling and refining choreographic movements. Pushing musical and bodily boundaries, she balances precision and improvisation, embracing the spirit of reinvention inherent in turntablism.

Soumaya Phéline, active since 2006, is a DJ & sound performer, and music curator blending bass-heavy beats, polyrhythms, and narrative. She challenges DJing cliches and boundaries, promotes inclusivity, and rethinks club culture. Founder of Another Way to Play, a festival focused on turntablism/CDJ exploration, she also engages in BIPOC cultural work, eco-friendly touring, hearing awareness, and music accessibility while fostering immersive dancefloor experiences.  She hosts ‘Soumaya Phéline & les copains’ show on Kiosk Radio & was part of Psst Mlle Collective.
