Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself?

Hey! Thanks for these thoughtful questions
My pronouns are She/Her or They/Them
I currently reside in Pittsburgh, PA
I eat strawberries whole :)

How did you get your DJ name? 

So one night when I was 18, I was at a Los Crudos show at the venue that a lot of friends and I would later throw parties at in Cleveland (shout out to Martin and any Limp Wrist fans reading this too!). The venue is next door to a terrible gay bar, I went there randomly (weird for me because gay bars are hell on earth 99% of the time) and ended up meeting a group of queens who said they were from the House of Laveaux and that I was their daughter now. They said I needed a name, and the name they chose for me was Kiernan Laveaux. I never saw them again after that night, but a few months later I began to go by the name when I started DJing. It’s become a part of my being in a way I couldn’t have imagined, and also a way of expressing my inner voice in hopes that it reaches the inner voices of others too - and maybe we all start to sing together.  

Who/what currently inspires your music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

Everything is musical & leads back to music for me no matter what, but recently leaning into the fact that I’m the oldest of a handful of young people on the paternal side of my family has been a really inspiring perspective shift of life. The potential of being a supportive & loving older person in the lives of younger people fills me with an infinite amount of joy.

I’ve been discovering more about Jewish heritage of mine that’s been attempted to be erased (as it goes), and in turn learning/reading more about Kabbalisitic thought & ways of being - engaging in magic in my own ways has been expanding my perspective on music/DJing the past several years. 

I’m far from any kind of expert on kabbalah, but the way energy flow & manifestation is written about and practiced within it has been validating to read, in music but as well as the way it feeds back into life. Even just the ability of the word “kabbalah” to translate to “reception”, “tradition”, or “correspondence” <3

Dream line-up?

System of a Down, Nissenenmondai, Cities Aviv, Devo, Mwandishi, The Body, Madam Data, Model Home, Obnox, Neon Phusion, African Head Charge, Cindytalk, Maurice Fulton, Via App, Cyrnai, Rakta, Plack Blague + all the homies DJing for a week straight

What was your best moment on the dance floor?

I’m thankful a lot of meaningful ones come to mind when I think of this - 
the one I always jump to with this question is the first time I saw Titonton Duvante & Bill Converse dj in May 2016, somewhere in Ohio. Both are definitely some of the first people who helped me see how unique & personal you can really be with DJing, Bill’s set that night especially helped show me how deep you can traverse the wormhole. It was just like this completely enveloping & beautiful psychedelic phenomena for me. I don’t remember a lot of the music, but I’ll never forget how it made me feel. Eternally grateful to have any of these experiences in life to help me smile and still feel coursing through my DJing to this day.

Do you have any upcoming releases/gigs?

Lots of ideas swirling in my mind to manifest for the future, but as of right now…

I’m playing in NYC Friday Sept 24 at Nowadays with 
Azu Tiwaline & DJ Voices :)

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

A complete & utter overhaul of the ways we create space, express ourselves, and love one another.

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself?

SV: Hey hey I’m Sangre Voss (he/him), I live in SE London and I’m apparently somehow related to Hamlet so I think that must make me kind of weird.

WH: Hello! Thanks so much for having us Sasha!! My name is Will - my pronouns are he/him and I am also currently living in London, luckily not too far from Mr Voss! 

Not related to Hamlet, but I am in the background of an episode of Home & Away, although I sadly can’t remember which one

Who/what currently inspires you music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

SV: My friend gave me a bubble machine as a house warming gift and when the sun hits right, I’ll put it on and sit underneath it. I’m not quite sure how this inspires me musically, but it feels so great that I think it must permeate through somehow.

WH: I’m looking after my parents cat atm and she’s so cute, definitely been a source of some kind of inspiration. It could be the early wake ups, or maybe I’m just jealous and wish I was allowed to sleep as much as her lol. She’d probably love to play with the bubble machine.

Favorite sound in nature? Describe how it makes you feel. 

SV: Difficult to choose but ice has a lot to offer. The sound of pebbles thrown on a frozen lake is definitely a favourite. Makes me want to tilt my head to the side and raise my eyebrows a bit.

WH: Ooh I like the icey sounds, that’s a good shout. Mine feels like a slightly more boring answer, but probably a stream or waves lapping at a shore. Pretty tough not to feel peaceful while hearing that 😇

If you had to describe yourself as an beverage, what would it be and why?

WH: Passiona - Aussie classic! Super delicious but a bit much sometimes.

SV: Buckfast abbey of Buckfast Tonic Wine fame isn’t far from where I grew up in Devon (UK) so it’s the (un)natural choice. I’m also sickly sweet and full of energy(?) so it works on a few levels.

What is your favorite party/collective where you reside and why?

WH: Always have to shout out Co-Select, although we’re a bit biased. Very recently went to a great party at a venue called Spanners and hope to go back there again soon, lovely 80 cap space with great sound. Lots of love for the Cheeky Soundsystem guys, and of course the Rye Wax crew (please come back soon)! 

So many around really, and loads of great new parties and crews seem to be springing up all the time here and I can’t wait to check them all out.

SV: I normally end up discovering Will on the dfloor when I’m out so not much to add here - I’ve been to a couple of Sagome events recently that I’ve really liked too though!

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

WH: I feel like I’m seeing really good efforts towards inclusive & diverse lineups which is great, but of course there’s always room for that to be better, especially on “bigger” lineups. 

I’d also like to see less aggro on the internet / in the industry in general. We’re all in it together! Let’s be friendly :) 

SV: yes yes and more genre-diverse nights are always welcome for me!

The third entry in a series of living documents of momentum

Euphoric kinetic connection embraces disorder inside the void, as we smile & dance toward anamnesis together

Manifested live at home between the surface noise, my spirit, and the universal chorus in afternoon glow of August 2023

Originally aired on Bass Clef's Open Hand Real Flames NTS show August 2023, this is the full archive of the mix because I accidentally made it too long for NTS (oopsie)- much love to Bass Clef and NTS for having me on the show!

& as Bahamadia once said... "Shalom" :)

proper introduction
fluctuation and vocalization at warp speed
heat style with this style of producing
a little bit purist
you ought to receive screens and encores for high-class tour pleasure
in the form of freestyle in style put it on down
et cetera, measure the
contents that can then concoct some new catchy phrases
the outcome of a mind that’s ageless while yours is senseless

melodic. logic. types
limericks to raw forms to form form
new forms of movement into new on-on-on into millenium
live swing like pendulum
pure soul m-m-maximum
uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
you got me high-high-high-high-high
best height for the next epic

feeling so high

mad miran - a message of manifestation, from the music room

Juanita's Mix 018 with ADAB @ADAB

Q. How would you describe yourself? (DJ, producer, artist, etc.)
A. I think ADAB is definitely more of an intention to be conjured then a singular moniker for a person. It’s an instance of exploring self/collective through an array of sounds from or influenced by cultures of color and the worlds they influence at large (which are quiet a few). It's also intended to be a direct expression of afrofuturism. A humble attempt to make sets and mixes made for emboldening and envisioning future instances of pan african and POC beauty in dance music.


Q. Any memorable club nights in NY? 
A. My latest memorable club night in NYC is also the last one I was able to spin live before everything shut down. I played Public Records alongside my dear friend CCL and it was a much needed gig/trip. We played a lot of drummy stuff we both love throughout the night and eventually ended on a Jungle/DnB note which was a dream to do with them. The crowd was super into it, outwardly showed love the entire time, and danced their asses off the whole time. It was a blast!


Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I decided to finally explore a lot of my 90-100 bpm percussive stuff that I’ve accumulated over time for this one. Up until now almost all my mixes have been above or around 130 bpm so it was nice to slow it down and mess around with this section of my collection. Definitely intended to be a psychedelic hip churner! There's also a few dear homies like CCL, Flora FM, Ali Berger, & Russell E. L. Butler in here as well so big shouts to them for some of these lovely tracks <3 Enjoy!
