Live from Lost Village - Gerd Janson

Taking over Tapes #114 is Berlin-based and Naarm/Melbourne native, Merve. Widely regarded by industry tastemakers, curators, and punters alike as a trailblazer within the underground community. 

The magic within Merve’s craft lies within her ability to traverse a broad scope of styles, defying genre restrictions and expectations, all whilst sounding consistently true to her own sonic signature. From sweaty underground basement parties, to sold-out large-scale festival stages, a set from Merve will pull you in and take you on a journey. 

Driven by a keen fascination with breaking down barriers between audience and performer, Merve explores the boundaries of each space she takes to, whilst blurring the dichotomy between light and dark. Jumping between genres with a seamless finesse, capturing the dance floor with her undeniably infectious energy, always bound to deliver the unexpected.

The Sizeable Mix Vol. 18: Franziska Berns

The next episode in our podcast series comes from a globe-trotting Belgian deejay on the rise. Antwerp-born, Berliner for a few years and recently settled down in our favourite city: Brussels. Lola Haro doesn’t need much of an introduction. She has been playing dance floors all over the world from Mexico to London, Milan to Paris, Tbilisi to Bucharest. Over a year ago her own record label and party concept called Small Steps blossomed, a home to delicate, floaty club music of all kinds. 

But Rome wasn’t built in a day: from a very early age, Lola was brought up in a musical nest, surrounded by Antwerp’s “creme de la creme” of the house music scene and calling the legendary record shop Wally’s Groove World her second home during her childhood. Suffice it to say Lola is influenced by the old-school generation of club music fanatics, party gurus and diamond city fashionistas. Standing next to the dj booth as a teenager checking those spinning records, sliding faders and eq knobs and coming of age as a club music observer that smoothly but surely became a world-known dj. 

While Lola has been flying high the last couple of years, playing big stages and festivals, she’s always kept her feet firmly set in the underground. We’ve been friends for some time and we share conversations about common personal questions like the search for identity in music, mental dj health, and the balance between the dance music business and the underground electronic world.

This mix has been in the making for some time and the result is a magnificent deep trip into her musical universe. I’m very glad to share this with you all. Thanks a lot for your effort and time spent recording this mix Lola, I wish you a bright future ahead. One foot in, one foot out, always taking lots of small but important steps.

Founder of label / party Small Steps, she's been immersed in dance-music from a young age, naturally progressing from music aficionado to globally in-demand DJ. Strap in for an hour of deep digs, and be sure to catch Lola making her Dimensions debut this year in Tisno.

Interviewing contemporary figures about their histories of queer discovery, the Panorama Bar and fabric regular continues an intergenerational conversation surrounding the life-affirming moments, communal  experiences and enduring challenges of LGBTQ+ expression. 

Alongside an On Cue mix packed with HI-NRG anthems and Italo house, Marke Bieschke learns more. Read the interview: https://djmag.com/features/cue-cormac-and-queer-dance-music-history-interview

Live from 1908 – Move D

The second installment of our podcast series is definitely a very special one. Last Amsterdam Dance Event we invited two of our all-time musical heroes to play a long back-2-back set. The result is 3 hours of pure bliss. We've now uploaded the full recording of the set for you to enjoy. 

As Resident Advisor put it:

"Nothing screams 'pure vibes' like a back-to-back from Move D and Gerd Janson."
