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

Dima Kachan is a Belarusian DJ and producer. He began his musical career in 2009 as a participant in hardcore and punk bands. A few years later, fascinated by electronic music, Dima made his debut as a promoter and journalist to develop the local electronic scene, which organically flowed into DJing. 

In 2018, Dima founded the Pravda25 project, which regularly organizes huge queer parties Somasutra, positioned not only as raves but also as a mindset with a retained focus on quality music, hedonism, and freedom of self-expression. In 2020, Dima joined derschein project (the biggest and most iconic techno platform in Belarus) as a resident, and in 2021 he released his first techno EP, «Euphoric Recall» on that label. 

Dima’s playing style can be defined as eclectic but mostly built on fast and expressive techno. Two primary goals that the artist sets for himself at every performance are establishing a strong connection with the huge crowd on the dance floor and turning an ordinary DJ set into an adventure with unexpected but harmonious twists.

Enjoy!

Fast Forward Audio Series #72: Dima Kachan

Next event: Apr26, 2025 @ Den Anden Side

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 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 focuses on creating safer spaces at the venues we use. Sexism, racism, homophobia, and transphobia are not tolerated.
