Wow, it's finally an honor to have Heidy P on the podcast! I was first introduced to Heidy P in 2021. The pandemic was still raging, and fortunately the members of Left Rite organized a marathon live stream to keep everyone's spirits up. I was reluctant about the live stream format, but I was pretty desperate for connection, so I moved aside my luddite tendencies and gave the format a go. My set was decent but modest. However, when Heidy P was on, she brought an enormous amount of energy and decor to her live stream. I thought "wow, even a pandemic can't stop her!"

Fast forward to 2023, and Heidy is on the GO! She moved from Montreal to New York City and hit the ground running. If you follow Heidy P on social media, you can tell she eats, lives and breathes nightlife. She can be found at her multiple favorite venues, including Le Bain, Good Room, House Of Yes in New York City, and Datcha,  Igloofest & Piknic Électronique in Montreal. These days she is equally immersing herself in the classic New York events as well as the latest trends in Bushwick.

When listening to her Ancient Puzzle Arts mix, you can hear how she is reflecting all of her international experiences and hours clocked on the dancefloor into a cohesive, funky, made-for-dancers mix.

Please let Heidy P warm you up with her energy as we still bear the cold here on the East Coast of the United States! Please enjoy

Ancient Puzzle Arts Podcast #26: Heidy P's Fun House Selection

For the 115th entry in the Honcho Podcast series, we welcome Sam PV! Sam is the founder and a resident at Pumping Velvet, a London-based Queer dance party that takes place bi-monthly at LGBTQ+ venue Dalston Superstore.

Frustrated by the lack of queer spaces where you could hear both a Svek record and Kylie in the same night, Sam founded Pumping Velvet in 2018, driven by the firm belief that any barriers erected between pop and ‘serious’ dance music are entirely artificial and that there’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure. It’s this same ethos and disregard for boundaries that makes his DJ so thrilling.

This mix is a live recording of Sam's set at Kiss Me Again, a Manchester-based LGBTQ+ dance party, in November 2022.

A long-awaited wish was fulfilled as I was invited to play my music at Robot Heart: the wish to express myself in such a magical setting, among kindred spirits and friends. 

Being given the honor of playing at sunrise right in front of the man made it all the more special to me. 

Thank you!

Oliver Koletzki - Robot Heart 10 Year Anniversary - Burning Man 2017

Monday. We board the lonely Submarine for the first time for a trip camp to playa. The energy is high, the tanks are full. This is my set.

This is an ode to my friend Scott, who dreamt big and dedicated a year and a lot of effort to make a moving home for the people he loves. We all gathered around or on top of his dream to celebrate friendship. For those of us that were lucky to play on top of it, seeing our family dance to our music is a memory we’ll never forget.

The first twenty minutes are part of the welcoming ceremony and boarding of the sub.

Some DJs want to challenge and confound you. Heidy P just wants you to have fun. Currently splitting her time between her native Montreal and New York, the rainbow-haired, riotously dressed DJ has a personality that’s just as vibrant, on and off the decks. She plays music that sparks joy  — mostly uplifting house and disco spanning the ‘80s til now, with an emphasis on the classic Chicago, Detroit and New York house music that is her biggest inspiration.

Heidy’s infectious sets have won her primetime sets at Good Room, Le Bain, Sunday Sunday, Nowadays, House of Yes, Piknic Electronik, Movement Festival and Lisbon’s Lux Fragil, and supporting slots for the likes of The Blessed Madonna, Jellybean Benitez, Bob Sinclar, Mystery Affair and Andrew VanWyngarden. Her productions are as feel-good as her DJing, from her romantic re-edits of ‘90s classics like Sophie B.Hawkins’ “Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover” to her recent “Elevate” EP released on Rocksteady Disco, a glorious summery house jam supported by Laurent Garnier and Move D and featuring remixes by the Carry Nation and Pontchartrain. 

Heidy’s musical journey kicked off in her early 20s in Montreal, where she hosted a weekly radio show and learned to DJ on the job at various residencies around the city. Indie music was her first passion, but the electroclash movement of the mid ‘00s led by artists such as Miss Kittin and DJ Hell was the portal through which she had her mind blown by club music. She played in bars around Berlin during a short stint living in the city, then headed back to North America and went to Detroit’s Movement Festival for the first time, where she saw legendary DJ Claude Young mixing records with his elbows and fell hopelessly in love with classic house music. 

Other overseas stints followed in Paris and in Lisbon, where Heidy became a regular at the city’s most famous club, Lux Fragil, and would spend her weekends DJing, dancing, and absorbing lessons in how to make a crowd move. Playing at all manner of bars and clubs around the world on a variety of equipment has taught Heidy how to adapt to the most challenging of situations. When thrown a curveball, she’s likely to knock it out of the park. 

In the past few years she’s been back in North America, Heidy’s seen some of her wildest dreams materialise, including performing at Detroit’s hallowed Movement Festival in the VIP area, playing the main room at one of Mexico City’s best clubs, Sunday Sunday, and regularly DJing at fabled New York venue Le Bain, against the twinkling backdrop of the Manhattan skyline. 

Recently, she played one of her favourite sets ever – a back to back with Andrew VanWyngarden of MGMT. Sharing the decks with one of her heroes as an indie-loving twenty-something was a pinch-me full circle moment for Heidy, but the opportunity came as no surprise to those who know what she’s capable of. Her rapturous selections, charisma and joie de vivre are a genuine gift to dancers serious about having a good time, and her unabashed commitment to the pursuit of pleasure inspires everyone in the club to do the same. Like a sprinkling of technicolour fairy dust beamed through the speakers, Heidy’s  magical energy is something you’ll want to experience again and again.
