Super Venus is a French/German deejay and graphic designer living in Berlin and floating in the musical field of downtempo, breakbeats, spacy techno and off-centered progressive house. She will play on Tuesday night 30th of April at the 7 Years Basic Moves party in Funke Ghent but will pass by before to Kiosk radio to bring a special set dedicated to a sound very close to Super Venus heart: dub music. We’re already excited. Tune in!

Ets, born in Gibraltar and based in Antwerp, is the next guest of Cafe Condense. He flawlessly takes you through a variation of sounds and atmospheres starting with easygoing downtempo moving on to deeper minimal with spacey breakbeat cuts. His mixing skills truly shine in this carefully curated, vinyl-only set.

Now a resident of Santa Musica, I invited Michel7000 to curate a mix. Marking the first downtempo installment in our podcast series, this selection reflects the essence of archivesandmore: not bound by genre, but guided by a commitment to quality content in all its forms. This is downtempo not as background, but as a narrative form: moody, nuanced, and alive!


Hailing from Toulouse and now deeply embedded in Berlin's pulsating underground, Michel7000 is a DJ with a sharp curatorial instinct. His record selection is as vast as it is meticulously selected, ranging from ambient, downtempo to pulsating techno and house - all bound together by a refined sense of quality. 

All vinyl!

Next up we have Italian digger Francesco, aka OHF, taking the reins at the Echobox Studio. His Soft Spot is called 'Detours' and focuses on the journeys he takes away from dance music to get re-inspired, seeking inspiration from different corners of electronic music. Its a meandering showcase that shines a light on tons of great records from his treasure trove of a collection. Enjoy :)

Manfredas and Vilnius are not one and the same but so intrinsically linked that the Lithuanian capital makes a good starting point. Although, Manfredas got his first musical experience via his hometown radio (long shifts soundtracking a country exploding itself out of the Soviet glaciation), it was his move to Vilnius that started it all. 

Skip a few shifts at legendary club Gravity and an electroclash band and we get to Opium and Smala. It is quite hard to fathom how important the club and Manfredas’ imprint were to the Vilnius nightlife, and still are. For years, this was the party and what a party that was; creating a scene out of not much, educating a couple of generation of clubbers, tightening friendships and making Manfredas the international DJ he is today. For many, it made Vilnius unexpectedly the best clubbing city in the world.

After a string of solo releases and remixes aimed at the furthest corners of the dancefloor, Manfredas took a deep breath and reached out even beyond that furthest corner. With drummer Marijus Aleksa, he created Santaka, an organic/electronic post-jazz (insert whatever term you please) with releases on Byrd Out and legendary Finnish label Sahko, and a live project where the dance floor and non-dancefloor merge hypnotically.

When Manfredas co-created Radio Vilnius in 2021, a hub for experimental music in a dire national landscape, it was another way to pay his dues to the local scene. Born online, Radio Vilnius has now launched it's own record label, inaugurated by Santaka themselves.

When The Last Smala happened in 2020, Manfredas & Ivan Smagghe created a new party outfit: Dresden, a bastard child of Vilnius and London, mother of all nighters, designer of t-shirts, travelling circus (from Love International to Wonderfruit, Glastonbury to Sonar). More hours put in for unruly people, more psychedelic music, including a two-day “weekender” at Gallery, the new hyper-club opened by the Opium crew.

Jack of all trades but master of many (we haven’t talked about his love of food), you can find Manfredas touring the world searching for that extra sparkle and sharing it with all of us.
