Techno

A mix of melting, euphoria, and weirdness

After Session

Kyoto-born, Berlin-based DJ, producer and artist, Alex Kassian has become a firm favourite of ours over here at Phonica over the past couple of years. His sophisticated, lush and organic sounding productions have been picked up by labels such as Paramida’s Love On The Rocks and Alex Bradley’s Utopia Records in recent years. His most recent release, Leave Your Life, was released in 2021 via Pinchy & Friends, and we can safely say it was one of our most-played, and bestselling, records of the year.

Together with Hiroaki OBA, Alex is also one-half of Opal Sunn, who have been operating their own imprint Planet Sundae since 2017, through which they self-released a number of EPs, catching the attention of and support from dance music luminaries such as Andrew Weatherall and DJ Sprinkles.

Phonica Mix Series 93: Alex Kassian

027 - REY COLINO

A fresh dose of celestial sounds by Lauren Hansom. After spending the better part of her 20s deep diving into dusty crates, Discogs wormholes and narrating dance floors across the globe, Lauren knows a thing or two about weaving oddball selections and creating soundscapes. Amped to have her on the series, we reached out to hear about her upcoming relocation to Amsterdam, a hectic EU festival season in the works, moving into music supervision and things to come.
