Fresh Kicks 210: Stella Zekri

Effervescent club cuts from one of Southeast Asia's rising DJ stars.

In Indonesia, the term santai (relaxed) is more than just an adjective—it's a lifestyle, one endearingly embodied by DITA. The New Delhi-born, Bali-rooted DJ's breezy attitude to life is reflected in dreamy, blissful euphoria.

DITA's RA Podcast is a window into both her disposition and sound, blending wiggly breakbeat into tweaking acid, Detroit house into Spanish electro, Balearic to '90s house and some grittier club fare, too. Her sets are rooted in a feel-good philosophy that allows her to freely play with energy and mood.

Don't just take our word for it: DJ Harvey hand-picked DITA to be a resident at his new club Klymax, nestled within the world-renowned Potato Head Bali, where DITA is also Head of Music. With gigs at everywhere from Panorama Bar (the first Indonesian woman to play) to Rainbow Disco Club and Dekmantel under her belt, the world is now taking notice of DITA's killer groove. A breakout 2025 surely beckons.

Live recording from Fandango at the Lighthouse
Plötzensee, April 14th 2024

Four hours of pure dance floor magic from @jacob-meehan & @alisonswing, recorded live at The Lighthouse last spring. Groove-heavy and packed with all the right spices, these two brought unstoppable energy and afternoon delight to a full house. Jump back in and relive the day!

Hailing from Brussels. Soundtracked the morning with Sixsixsixties during IsBurning in the restaurant of TILLATEC with NYE and now cooked a lovely selection for our Smoke mixserie. It feels like a forever summer breeze, warm while being cooling you down and still let you bounce your head a little

Thanks zouzibabe!

As the year winds to long overdue a halt, we called on local Berlin DJ, Love On The Rocks favourite and all round class act @alexkassian to supply us with one of his finest blends, rewinding to the dawning age of early morning trance hypnotics and big outdoor breaks with splashes of dream house for the tired minds.

We linked up via the Internet to speak about Alex' latest musical endeavours, touching base on the @opalsunn collab and @planetsundae label he shares with likeminded studio head @hiroakioba.
