Owain K: 17th December '24

The Dekmantel favourite kicks off 2025 in an exploratory mood.

Since her breakout in 2017, Thessa Thorsing has built an enviable CV: a debut release on Nous'klaer Audio, an album on Dekmantel and a residency at former Amsterdam clubbing institution De School. Over these years, she's honed a singular sound, navigating wild variations in tempo and mood that dance along the edges of techno, IDM and drum & bass (we could list many more, but you know the drill).

Her creative arc has seen her delve into ever more abstract concepts, such as 2024's ambient-leaning album, Strange Meridians, exploring the interplay between synthetic and natural textures through drumless experimentations. As she explained in her 2018 RA Breaking Through profile, "I just want to hear the weirdness in the music."

Thorsing's RA Podcast showcases exactly why she's one of the most  consistently adventurous names in dance music. Describing it as "a mix with a narrative," the former landscape architecture student flexes her ability to build sonic environments, beginning in a landscape more akin to a swamp than a club.

Across 90 minutes, she moves through numerous layered terrains, exploring everything from Skee Mask's lucid, beatless techno to the piercing acid of Mike Parker. Unfolding with a restless sense of curiosity, RA.970 captures an artist challenging the boundaries of electronic music, ever upward.

PPRZ Podcast 34 - Zvrra (Recorded live in Vancouver)

Many artists find comfort staking their claim to a scene or genre, but leaving specifics behind and embracing the grey areas between strands of electronic music has helped Emily Jeanne emerge as one of the shining lights of dance music’s new guard.

In fact, it’s those grey areas that Jeanne has always felt comfortable in. Historically a refuge for outliers in search of the esoteric, in 2024 dance music finds itself at a crossroads where maintaining a sense of the individual is harder than ever. Emily’s authentic approach to production and Djing, that pits broken beats in amongst more direct, dance floor material, IDM and Ambient derivatives can be seen as a direct reflection of the artist’s ever-shifting interior – and her comfort with a plural and undefined personal identity.

Indeed, Jeanne’s commitment to the craft itself has become her calling card. Allowing the process of experimentation to bleed into her club performances in terms of rhythm and tone –but maintaining a razor-sharp eye on quality control, Emily Jeanne weaves unique but cohesive sets as a DJ and delivers exhilarating exploits as a producer.

Her musical output including 2020’s Public by Default – and more recently, a pair of EP’s – released via Peder Mannerfelt’s much lauded eponymous imprint, is testament to this fact. In turn, each release also provides a marker in an ongoing process of personal and sonic development – charting a trajectory that can be seen stretching out into the future. Beyond her productions, a residency at Ghent’s Funke Club has allowed the artist a degree of world-building and an opportunity to stretch curatorial muscles. A regular show on Brussels’ Kiosk radio has provided the perfect environment to showcase the full breadth of her musical appreciation. As the new year unfolds, studio time meets an international touring schedule for an artist plotting a singular and personal path.

“For me, music has always been about journeys. Going inward. Digging so deep you steer away from anything that makes sense. All becomes chaos. All becomes one. All is you. 
This mix is a recent dream. A sleep twitch. I jump from one cloud to the other. I fall and submerge myself in another story. I run so hard but stay exactly where l was. Have we served our purpose?”

NR Sound Mix 076 Emily Jeanne

Bristol-based @k_means operates at the fringes of electronic music. It's not tempo and genre that unites their sound, but more an exploration of mood and texture underpinned by bass-heavy low ends and hypnotic rhythms. The Noods, Rinse FM and Kiosk Radio regular is also resident at Bristol's Psychotherapy Sessions and will debut at Dekmantel Festival where you should fully expect to be taken into plenty of unknown musical territory.

It is the same with their mix for us this week - a wild trip into futuristic drum patterns and interplanetary sounds that melt the mind and contort the body. There is a constant push and pull between the organic and the synthetic with tribal percussion and warped vocals brushing up with bleeping synth modulations and experimental minimalism. It's a magnetic selection that's as much an imaginary movie soundtrack as it is a dance floor escape.
