The long road to Horst: AliA’s residency.

Horst was never 'just' a festival—it’s always been a place where artists grow alongside the community. Few artists embody that evolution as clearly as AliA, a day-one visitor who grew into one of Horst’s most versatile and respected resident DJs.

This year, AliA plays a special role in launching the Horst Peloton – a collective bike ride to the festival in collaboration with Bosch eBike Systems. Not only did she contribute a new mix to mark the occasion, she’ll also perform a live DJ set during the Peloton’s first day, soundtracking the riders’ journey to Asiat Park.

We sat down with AliA to talk about her memories of the early days, her growth alongside the festival, and the beauty of taking the long road—whether behind the decks or on two wheels.

For Trushmix 239 we got Thurlow Joyce in the mix.
A producer and DJ based between Vancouver, and Berlin. His most recent record, Lemon Citrus, was released on NAFF last year and explores dub techno, trance, and other styles with additional music from Priori x Regularfantasy.

In the mix he presents varied styles of techno on the more early nineties progressive side, with some added elements of micro house, house, trance and ambient.
A one hour and twenty two  minutes of vibes.

Enjoy!
