POSSESSION PODCAST #210 - NAZIRA

Nazira is an indelible piece of the New East movement -- a shining example of post-Soviet experiential experimentation within the wondrous electronic underground that nests comfortably in Almaty. She came onto the radar in 2016 through her Unsound : Dislocation sets in Bishek and Dushabe and shortly thereafter debuted at the main festival in Krakow. From them on, Nazira began to draw attention from patrons worldwide through her adaptable approach to DJing, delivering emotive and expansive narratives with her sets, with sounds and selections that are unique and consistently memorable; so much so that she has been featured in DAZED, The New York Times, Mixmag, Pitchfork, Resident Advisor, WePresent and The Guardian among others. Her sound also brought her bookings in Berghain, De School, Bassiani among other places. 



Between making waves for publications, she has also established herself within the Almaty scene as a beacon for burgeoning DJs and performers with ZVUK, a DIY event series that makes its home wherever the vibe will take it. Since it began in August 2016, the series has welcomed explorative sounds and inclusivity for self-expression. Collective brought the first ever Boiler Room to Central Asia, having it in the state theatre in November 2021.

POSSESSION PODCAST #210 - NAZIRA

Next up in the Fast Forward Audio Series, we present: Rakans

Rakans is an artist, and a visionary. Oriental, experimental and eclectic approaches to arts
and music makes his live and DJ sets and sound choices unique and mysterious. Rakans is a
DJ and also the founder of the Rawmantique party in Dresden which is a Queer Safer Space
that aims to attract the alternative, underground kids and offer them a space for explorations,
offering a non-judgmental surrounding allowing new unique experiences, whatever they are,
happen.

Rakans’s risk-taking and mysterious musical choices have centralized his vision between
local and European collectives. Rakans performed on main platforms such as Boiler Room &
HÖR Berlin. Also, main floors of multiple reputable clubs such as Mutabor (Moscow),
Anomalie (BLN) Sektor (DD), Wilde Renate (BLN), Le Depot (Paris), and multiple others
participating on floors of Horovod Festival, Pornceptual, Mala Junta, Popoff Kitchen and
Myst Paris, Flash Cocotte, constantly aspires to present new sounds and experiences.

His music often takes on an emotional and dramatic aspect bringing love, sexuality, and
tenderness as main topics into the techno sounds yet remain true to his identity being
connected with his love and admiration for the land.. That don’t only make the crowd dance
hard, but also groove and go back to their first instincts of sexual desires, primal social
connections and pleasures.

Enjoy!

UNTREATED Podcast 052 by @peach-lyfe

Peachlyfe (they/them) is a hydra-sonic electronic musician that shook & seduced the Copenhagen fast-paced techno scene, claiming their seat along with the Fast Forward Agency.
Peachlyfe’s productions and live-sets rebelliously weave across genres, trippy melodies cut with heavy slaps while slithering whispers in your ear sowing the dismantlement of the ‘cistem’. Their previous EP “All Tits are Real, All Money is Fake, All Hail Satan” is an ode to that anarchic-playfulness, a marvellous feat in blending rave-rush joy and queer defiance.

UNTREATED Podcast 052 | Peachlyfe

On June 23, 2022, Revier Südost and Gravity Network invited Bloomfeld, Chloe Lula, DVS1, Katty Lange and Nicky Böhm to gather for a panel discussion titled Techno Capitalism & Instagram Economy, to deconstruct the title loaded with many positive and negative connotations, and to unpack some of the topics and issues associated with business side of electronic music industry. What went down was a lively conversation on the notorious business techno, on straddling the middle between the underground and the mainstream, artist visibility and the role of photography, today’s relevance of DJ mixes and much, much more.

As the next guest on the Fast Forward Audio Series, we are excited to present: Mac Declos

Enrolled into the groove with a blues guitarist father and a singer/dancer mother, Mac bathes in the musical cosmos very young, dipped in a home of rhythm and choreography. He graduated in dance and pursued contemporary dance at the Centre Chorégraphique National of Roubaix. The versatile virtuoso also proved himself in hip hop dance battle but soon discovered the holy platines to practice his waltz. From hip hop to house music, there is one, two step : a controller has been bought, Mac Declos is born.

Eclectic, with an unpredictable hypersonic sound, intense yet precise, Mac Declos swings furiously between body and mental, hits high-paced without losing any groove: projected into a frenetic race, we are all invited to lose control during Mac’s kicky-bouncy techno sets.
Recently, Mac Declos dropped « Cuir en cage », his first 5-tracks EP on Myst. He also released his first 10-track LP on Mama Told Ya MTY-007 «Hard work always pays off».

About the mix:
"I recorded this podcast before New Year's Eve with a focus on exploring various genres, as I often do. The aim was to create a one-hour journey that reminds me of my last gigs or club experiences. Savor the journey."

Enjoy! 👽

In addition to being an integral part of TILT, ENNIO holds a residency at the popular queer event series Kinky Sundays, based at Hamburg's acclaimed PAL.

Enjoy! :)

As the co-head of the incredible Ectotherm/Endotherm labels, one third of Apeiron crew and one of the most diverse and outstanding DJs we've ever seen, it's a true please for us to host this exceptional 2 hour podcast. Containing tender moments, deep undulating crackers, raw bangers and a proper Manc jump-around 'n' wooly jumpers 90's bit ;)

The mix in Mama Snake's own words...

"A massive procrastination from studying for 3 massive exams. recorded at the snake pit aka the Nørrebro jungle I call my town with two semi broken 1210'2 and a poor mans cdj - the xdj700 - in 1 go with no editing or rekordbox sync. Filled with Mama Snake classics, recent bangers and Ectotherm goodies."

Next event: Oct5, 2024 @ ???

Fast Forward Productions was formed in December 2015 as a new take on DIY rave culture. All events are built from the ground up, focusing on our local scene and on collaborating with like-minded crews and concepts from abroad.
With a focus on social engagement, and by using activists from the local community to help make the events come to life, Fast Forward actively focus on creating safer spaces at the venues we use. Sexism, racism, homophobia and transphobia are not tolerated.

After the first year of activities, numerous collabs and the establishment of close relationships with like-minded crews all over Europe, we decided to establish ourselves as an agency working with some of the scene´s core members - both DJs and live acts. In doing this we work both as a traditional agency and as a promotional platform for each artist’s creative output.
