Spasta - Compiled by Adriana

A australiana Adriana é parte importante da cena de rádios comunitárias de Melbourne. Dona de uma curadoria afiada, você pode encontrá-la atrás dos decks pela Austrália, ou apreciar seus mixes diversos online. Nessa edição do nosso podcast, ela traz um mix bastante solto, passeando pelo hip hop, downtempo, música latina e caribenha, funk oitentista, e outras surpresas.

Whether it’s on the airwaves for PBS or behind the decks Adriana brings infectious energy to everything she does. A staple curator for years in the Melbourne community radio scene, Adriana’s Tuesday 7-8pm slot, Opalakia, has been a fertile space for sharing flavours of dance inflected world music to an eager band of fans, subscribers and listeners.

Adriana - Alter Disco Podcast 86

Herself a representative of the global network of eccentric ecletists to which we all belong with pride and pleasure, Adriana is someone whose efforts are quite akin to what we strive to accomplish here. Helming the magnific Opalakia show for some good five years, this Melbourne native has been one of the main sources of aural pleasantries from all over the globe to PBS listeners and pretty much anyone who's been fortunate enough to catch her taking entire dancefloors on ecstatic journeys through wonderfully multifarious soundscapes. By weaving delightful rhythmic patterns and sewing enthralling melodic threads, she creates stunning musical mosaics such as the one we present here, assured to make any time of your day more enjoyable or, at the very least, more vibrant and vivid.

Adriana

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Naarm’s very own god-daughter Adriana comes correct with the most marvellous assemblage of mid-day lullabies. A beautiful insight into one of the very best DJs in the country, if not this galaxy. The results culminate into a delicate selection of songs to fall in love with/to. Dance around the house/car/beach/supermarket any way you like, this mix is for the (all) ages. 

Enjoy responsibly. Forever (y)ours. xo

Adriana ... #20

After being a staple curator in Melbourne’s community radio scene, Adriana’s Tuesday 7-8 slot, Opalakia, was a fertile space for sharing flavours of dance-inflected world music to an eager band of fans, subscribers and listeners. 

Since leaving PBS, Adriana has launched Spasta, her instant classic party which has rapidly garnered a cult audience for its unpretentious, rhapsodic moments in the dancefloor. Spasta, which means ‘to break’ has smashed plates, thrown flowers at live Bouziki players, hosted traditional Pontian dancers and cracked eggs, with traditional Greek food and a daring programme of Australia’s, and the globe’s best record collectors and selectors. It’s a party made for the heads, with all your notions left at the doormat.


In the booth, Adriana is bound by nothing, coasting between traditional and contemporary sounds her sets are a sonic jaunt, touching down on all four corners of the globe on a rollercoaster that excites as much as it surprises. With unstoppable energy that radiates in any room, Adriana’s passion for the eclectic makes her one of the city’s finest and most down to Earth diggers. Expect a riot of genres, enthusiasm and curiosity, all delivered with smiles and an opa!
