T-N (@t-n_dj real name Tanya Akinola) is a dance community all rounder. She’s a DJ, writer and activist who also co-manages the highly acclaimed multimedia platform and record label Amniote Editions alongside Mama Snake. T-N’s sound revolves around creating psychedelic experiences for dancefloors both indoors and out, spiralling journeys through fast past trance, rhythmic techno and contemporary psy - it's music to get lost in. Her softer side is shared through sounds to find yourself in, introspective ambient and downtempo explorations broadcast via her Sylab radio show 'AMUL3T' and beyond.

Over the past four years, T-N has played an integral role in shaping the Black Artist Database, an online community-based music platform, label and crowdsourced database of black artists, producers and labels. As an artist and writer, T-N strives to platform BIPOC and queer artists and voices, these themes oft the core of pieces written and published in Resident Adviser, Crack Magazine, Mixmag and more.

T-N joined me for Passing Notes episode 275, broadcast live on PBS106.7.

While in town for a gig, catch Paris-based DJ vendredear on a self-reflective journey through hard drums, highly melodic blends, heavy footwork & suspenseful club music, a signature mix to mark their approaching birthday.

“An infinite landscape stretching beyond the horizon.” This is how ting @tng1x envisions the Spring Equinox, expressed through her contribution to Orbitinging’s 14th mix. “I don’t think there’s a specific time for this mix, it’s meant for whenever and wherever you want to space out, in a quiet train ride, headlights on an empty road, the hum of work, or the staring of 3 AM at the ceiling, just hit play. It doesn’t matter when you start listening--just let it take you somewhere that is beyond reach but still feels nostalgic,” she adds.

/
ting is a Persian-Taiwanese DJ based in Kaohsiung, crafts sets that balance refinement with raw, ethereal and dreamy energy, blending ambient, IDM, DnB, techno and experimental music into deep, rhythmic journeys.

/
She highlights “gimmie a call” by Ben Bondy from the mix, sharing that it is one of those rare games that has stuck with her since the very first time she heard it.

Since last year, ting has been diving deep into music production, and it’s been a fulfilling journey for her-- trying to crave out her own sound, uncover her creative identity and figure out what truly resonates with her as a person besides DJing. There will also be a few more new mixes from ting coming soon. “Hoping to wrap them up soon :))” she shared excitedly.

「一望無際的景色，延伸至地平線外」是ting @tng1x眼裡的春分，也是她為第14部Orbitinging所帶來的混音作品：「我不認為這個混音有特定的播放時機，它適合任何時間、地點，當你想放空時就按下播放鍵——無論是在安靜的列車之途、頂頭燈走在空蕩道路、伴隨工作的嘈雜，或凌晨三點乾瞪天花板之際。何時聆聽並不重要，儘管讓它帶你到某個遙不可及卻又熟悉的地方」她補充道。

/
現居高雄的伊朗及台灣混血DJ ting，在精緻與粗獷、空靈與夢幻的能量間尋找平衡，善將ambient、IDM、DnB、Techno及實驗音樂交織成深沉且富韻律感的旅程。

/
她從混音裡挑選了來自Ben Bondy的《gimmie a call》與我們分享，並說這是她少數從第一次聽到便持續留存在其腦海裡的作品。

ting從去年起開始沉潛於音樂創作，而這段旅程讓她感到滿足──雕琢屬於自己的聲響、挖掘創作者身份的才能、以及探索除DJ外真正與自身共鳴的事物。ting也透露接下來將會有其它的混音作品釋出，「希望能快點完成與大家分享 :))」她興奮地說。

Spring Equinox 春分 (ChūnFēn)

The Spring Equinox marks the balance of day and night, where yin and yang coexist in harmony, cold and warmth are evenly matched. Afterward, daylight gradually increases, and rainfall becomes more frequent. It is advisable to stretch, exercise, and sweat to expel internal dampness, promoting balance in both body and mind while nourishing the liver and lungs.

春分日夜對分，陰陽相伴寒暑平，此後白晝時間漸增，雨水也相對增多，宜拉筋伸展、運動排汗以除體內濕氣、協調身心養肝肺。

Orbitinging is an inging ambient mix series, blending the flow of music with the rhythm of seasonal changes. Released in sync with the 24 solar terms, it captures the unique atmosphere of each moment.

The 24 solar terms originated from ancient astronomers dividing the solar year into 24 equal parts, marking the Earth's journey around the Sun. Orbitinging resonates with nature’s breath, deepening our connection to Earth's rhythms.

4 Ever Asleep : Popow (11.09.25)

Originally from Korea and based in Berlin, @kaydthedj embodies the spirit of the electronic music aesthetician and researcher. His sonic explorations eventually led him to Switzerland… and, through countless messages, blossomed into a deep-rooted friendship with our team; a connection that began digitally has now materialized into real-world action and collaboration. We quickly understood that beyond the music, a shared philosophical outlook and a deep mental connection truly bonded us.

Today, Kay D shares a truly fabulous set, featuring a blend of hypnotic grooves and pure elements of Trance. This set is powerfully inspired by his recent trip across some legendary beaches of the Kingdom of Siam, where people from all walks of life have gathered for decades. Expect a journey that is high-energy and moving, featuring flawless mixing and sophisticated selection, and remaining contemporary yet profoundly timeless. Maybe it evokes a deep sense of nostalgia for a simpler, brighter era… a feeling that resonates within our hearts and in our very genes, echoing a vibrant spirit from the turn of the century. We sincerely hope that, much like us, this voyage will inspire you to stay up so late that it becomes a little too early, just in time for the light.

Thank you, Kay D, for your support since the very beginning of this adventure.
