Toronto modular synth artist and DJ WeTurnToRed (a.k.a. Shamanta Chandran) is a Syrian-born Tamil-Canadian producer/DJ/ singer/songwriter and scientist based in Toronto. Growing up on the city’s outskirts, she studied and classically trained in opera and jazz as an arts high school kid. Her deep love for electronic music was ignited after her older brother introduced her to the mid-90s Toronto rave scene.
After experimenting in the studio for over a decade, delving into melodic nuances of modular and analog synths, it was clear that growling basslines and haunting melodies were the subjects of her affection. She made her mark in Toronto’s electronic music scene through live hardware deep house/techno-focused sets. As a DJ, her mixes run into genre-spanning territory with her opening for Waajeed, DJ Minx, Orphix, Patrice Scott, Dawd and Tony Humpheries. 
Her newest release for 2023 is her EP Rogue Planet which reflects her early life experiences as a South Asian immigrant who journeyed from the Middle East to North America as a child. Out on Toronto label Cosmic Resonance, it follows notable releases on Planet E’s Detroit Love compilation series, MSTRKRFT’s ORO Records, and Detroit imprint PITS. She’s been featured on Stamp The Wax, Inverted Audio and Rinse France, DJ Mag and Metal Magazine. 
As a South Asian woman in the electronic modular space, WeTurnToRed is an artist to watch.

We are pleased to present to you on this Lord Satan's Wednesday two and a half hours that will leave you breathless. Zero jokes, lots of mutant house and techno, analog, acidic sounds, 808 drums, knives, sticks, demented voices and corrosive darkness. Bernardo Junqueira aka Betek is not new in the field, he has been creating some of the finest tracks direct to your most dancing coraçao since a long time ago, with releases on labels scattered around the globe such as Balans, Rotterdam Electronix or FERMA. In this house we are proud fans and we like to play his releases, full of freshness and with a predilection for acid incursions. As a dj he doesn't take prisoners and nobody is going to bring you down from the ceiling unless Father Karras comes with holy water and blessed rosary. Click on the link to devastate the neighborhood with this set and turn to the right the volume knob to death.

Kintsugi Podcast 081 - Betek

Much of @pekkell inspiration comes from attending opening hours, when minds are still sharp and not overly craving climaxes or peaks. Rather, something is created that has unison and seems merging from dusk. A sort of cyclic path you can walk into, where to get lost. This is what the Dutch talent aim to convey in the form of ever-evolving rhythms, beeps, and percussion culled from a wide range of dub-tech oriented styles. Straight from Groningen, he’s been already featured by @aajaradio, @echo-recordings and @selinselinselinselin.

Decadance #056 | Pekkel

The obscure, shrouded in vagueness. Time lost its grip, boundaries dissolved. Shadows passing by, apes rule. Venture forth, into the primal wilderness.
