For dancing

Kasra's long-standing residency on NTS Radio is a firm favourite here at HQ. His selections aren't bound by any particular genre, constantly shifting and evolving as the mood strikes - whether catering for mainroom dancefloors or intimate retreats, his signature sound is ever-present as this mix clearly demonstrates. We're humbled to welcome him to our series with mix 259 - we'll the music do the talking from here...

#119 comes from Kasra V, a talented Iranian dj & producer based in London. The NTS radio resident has recently put out a release on one of my all time favourites, @radiantrecords, a beautiful release imbedded with textural & rhythmic play. In his productions & mixes alike, he fuses eastern & western sounds in a unique & exciting way -- with no specific genre & style binding his repertoire.

So happy to have him as part of the series - thank you so much for the mix Kasra!

@kasra-v’s retro-injected club cuts are propelling dancers into the future

"The mix is kind of retrospective musically, and I am retrospective personally and I’ve come to terms with that in the past year or two. I was listening to a lot of Danny Tenaglia’s Twisted label and Global Underground’s mix series and this Tony De Vit 12-hour mix from TRADE, which back then must have been like what, 500 records? And also going out a lot at the time and listening to friends who I find inspiring every time I see them DJ, like Marie Malarie again, Byron Yeates, Alex Kassian, THC – so it was probably a mix of all of that."

Fact Mix 933: Kasra V (Nov '23)

The Iranian born & London based powerhouse Kasra V steps up next for the Phonica mix series.
With a heap of solid releases out in the last while from labels like Byron Yeates' Radiant Love imprint and Sepehr's Shaytoon Records - Kasra V's production styles reaching the realms of breaks and techy club numbers have been forward thinking and truly head turning. As a DJ he has earned the respect of some of the biggest names in the industry, played in some of the biggest clubs in Europe like Panorama Bar and Fabric as well as recently marked his 10 year residency on NTS radio. With a new label "V-SION" and its first release focusing on his tenure at the long running radio institution in London things are only moving further in the upwards trajectory for the artist.

Oddysee 066 | "On & On" by Kasra V

Kasra V’s unique fusion of eastern and western sounds has made him one of the most intriguing artists of the day. The Iranian has established himself with an NTS show (that is more than 100 episodes deep) and DJ sound that mixes old school UK rave with Belgian techno, acid house, trance and eastern grooves that make for spellbinding experiences. In 2018 he collaborated with Dopplerekkekt and is working on a reissue compilation series that focuses on Iranian sounds as well as original dance material.

Later this year he will play for us at Dekmantel Selectors so you can get an insight into what to expect on this week’s podcast: It’s a whirlwind hour of trance-inducing electronics. Zoned out synths are layered up over smooth rolling drums, with sci-fi references and progressive grooves lifting you ever higher. Acid flashes, retro motifs and slick mixing all make it a perfectly absorbing trip.
