Surfing on the House Music wave it's Australian artist Merve who delivers the goodies and insights around her artistical persona. The Melbourne based DJ, currently experiencing something that has almost been forgotten in many places, namely playing gigs in front of a real crowd, has been around for a moment in her home country, playing with scene mainstays and renowned artists alike and sharing her vision and approach of genre to a wider audience. During the lockdown she (re)discovered her preference for the radio amongst other things. Additionally Merve speaks to Torture the Artist about the Aussie club (culture), her first steps in and into the scene, the few positive sides of the pandemic and its impact on the local nightlife and lastly delivers the latest episode of the art:cast special series.

Neilgai trukus ji tapo miesto elektroninės muzikos pirmūne, kurią sutiksime mūsų ilgojo Joninių savaitgalio Palangoje metu. Prieš pažinį — viešnios #opiumlimitededition dedikuotas miksas.

OLE mixtape 001: Merve

Melbourne based DJ and curator Merve lays down a dark n’ stormy club mix with heavy doses of 90s rave and propulsive rhythms. We recently had the pleasure of hearing her perform at the re-opening of Amsterdam-based club De School, which completely blew us away. Captivated and inspired by the whole experience, we sent her an invite the day after and were stoked to hear she was up to record a mix and have a chat for our series.

Bizarro Blends 33 // Merve

A music aficionado through and through, Merve has spent a fair share of her time within the music industry. Developing skills early in her career as a booker and artist manager, it didn’t take long for Merve to get behind the decks herself, gaining some serious traction with her infectious sets that encompass elements of house, funk, tribal and techno. 

This earned her stage time alongside industry icons like The Black Madonna, and Motor City Drum Ensemble. Having played at some of Australia’s most iconic festivals such as Golden Plains, Strawberry Fields, and Let Them Eat Cake, Merve is certainly one of Melbourne’s most exciting rising stars.
