BIS Radio Show #1085 with Tim Sweeney

Hailing from the Belgian capital and as 1/3 behind the Şelale record on Second Circle, it's our friend soFa (@sofaholic) on mix 32. Interview (excerpt) down below.

MFM: Hi Chris, can you tell a bit about how you made your first steps in the scene as a DJ/producer?

SE: That was first by playing school parties only, and later by organising parties and getting booked by others in return. The usual game, but it was a bit easier as today since there was less competition I think. On the production side I am quite new to that. I started in 2018 only because I lacked time before that, I used to have a job as curator for an art festival and also digging for records kept me busy and excited for many hours every day. 

MFM: Earlier this summer saw the release of Selale on Second Circle, a collaborative project between you, Okay Temiz and Houschyar. Most releases you've worked on are collaborations. Is there a reason for that? 

SE: Yeh different reasons. It's much more fun to share the fun! I'm not a properly trained musician, I like to break rules, rather than applying them. Collaborating with people who know notes and harmonies allows to combine those 2 visions and the results are more exciting to my ears. I feel I have more to say by helping others to get their music right (or wrong) cause that's what all those years of digging after very specific records have taught me.

MFM: Any more projects lined up already?

SE: Yes, quite a bunch I produced with dear friends, Nyati Mayi, soon on Bongo Joe, CCCVVV with Clara Vellin on Strangelove Music and Sexo Y Fantasia with Da Boochie from Kiosk Radio on Glossy Mistakes coming up. There is also a solo record going to the pressing plant next week, coming out on Planet Trip in spring. It has guest singers, but I call it my solo record since I played the whole beats and synths by myself. Its probably gonna remain my only solo record for a while. I slipped into so many collabs and I'd like to focus on that. I especially love working with singers/voices and hopefully some day I get to produce a whole band project!

MFM: What are you hoping for to find in nightlife now that dancefloors are opening up again? Have you been thinking about this whole situation a lot at all?

SE: I am looking forward to seeing people smile and dance again! Party wise I would especially hope to find more groove and less hard music everywhere. I have the feeling the youth of today can only dance to hard stuff, I find that sad. Real music lovers can dance to anything. The whole situation is/was of course tragic for the nightlife sector. Especially for younger people who are in their best years to create a network of friends and experience adulthood for the first time. On a personal level I liked the time off. It allowed me to focus on a more healthy lifestyle and on making music. 

MFM: Cheers for contributing your mix! What can you tell about it? 

SE: I glued together the first half of it while on a roadtrip in Albania last month. Second half I did this morning in a rush. It's nice tunes, diverse and odd enough as I love. I don't care too much about the technical aspect, I just recorded a bunch of records I felt for sharing. In my opinion all that Dj thing is a bit overrated and way too serious. We are just playing other people's music afterall. There is an art behind that, but I feel it's getting lost more and more. For me it's not about the technical side of it, it's about adapting to people and still surprising them in an original way.

MFM Mix 032: soFa elsewhere

DJ Fog Puma aka Jean-Marie Dhur was infected by the post-punk, 2-tone and reggae virus at the age of 14, and soon acquired a solid collection of copied cassettes and mixtapes by trading with friends. A few years and some tangled cassette tapes later - initiated by the discovery of New Order's ‘Technique’ album - came the second epiphany in the form of Chicago house, Detroit techno, and communal euphoric dance experiences. Both spheres eventually merged into a preference for hypnotic, rhythmic, dubby, minimalist sounds with a counter-cultural and leftfield attitude. The affinity for this is still reflected in Fog Puma's DJ sets, which move along atmospheres rather than clearly defined genre boundaries. In addition to his dance sets, he also likes to play calmer music, which he presents monthly in the show Abendlandung on Cashmere Radio. And he is co-owner of the specialist bookshop Zabriskie in Berlin-Kreuzberg.

The source of inspiration for a Fog Puma mix are the sounds that are created incessantly by the countless great non-conformist, creative and experimental musicians worldwide - as well as moods that are generated by experiencing and connecting with plants, animals, landscapes, skies, weather and other natural phenomena. The mix for LiO is also inspired by the sounds on the chill-out floors of the 90s, which were mandatory for a proper rave back then.

“There’s just so much good stuff out there, like really out there. I want to take a little time to play some of it for you in the hope it might brighten your day today tomorrow and ever after because without music there’s no food for the soul, our feelings are disjointed and our relationships are askew. Hang-on in there. Music music music is the answer. Always”

Radio Guesthouse 52 - Mark Broadbent

We offer artists a platform to reach you far from the club scene - connected day and night.

F R I N D A • D I • L A N C O [@frinda_di_lanco, Berlin |GER] is a DJ, record collector, radio host, and co-founder of @avec_plaisir_records.  With a deep love for musical storytelling and an ear for hidden gems, she crafts eclectic sets that flow between rare disco, leftfield house, cosmic grooves, and emotional club sounds. Her selections are shaped by years of digging: from basement bins in Palermo to flea markets in Beijing and a strong connection to music history and subcultures.
Her DJ sets have taken her to renowned festivals and clubs like Fusion, Primavera Sound, Boom Festival, Cocktail d’Amore, Horse Meat Disco, Jolene Bar, Bar Part Time (SF), and Club Kaiku (Helsinki). Whether it’s a peak-time slot or a slow-building warm-up, she creates an atmosphere that feels both intimate and expansive.
Off the dancefloor, she hosts Music From Mullets on Cashmere Radio, a bi-monthly show blending stories, field recordings, and deep musical dives. As head of Avec Plaisir, she curates personal and playful releases with her partner @hendrik_stein, focusing on identity and quality.
Frinda di Lanco stands for depth over hype and connection over trends. Whether on air, behind the decks, or through her label, she brings passion, knowledge, and authenticity to every project.


Thanks for your music, Sandra! ❤

We're so proud of this project and our featured artists. Thank you for listening!

#87 Frinda di Lanco (vinyl) – DISCOnnect cast

We asked Ewan to make us a short promo mix and this came in, totalling 32 tracks and clocking in at 2 hours 24 minutes! It opens with the sound of Mark Hollis’s voice as a nice nod to Spirit of Eden and then veers from drone through Balearic, Compass Point ish funk, Psych-y stuff and ends with Krauty excursions and a smattering of New Wave Pop.

We’re very grateful
Thank you Ewan xxx  🙏🏻
