guest mixes

For this week’s mix, we're happy to have Nazira. An artist who has fundamentally changed the electronic music scene in her native city of Almaty in Kazakhstan, and has gained international recognition over the years.

Left Bank 014 - Nazira

Almaty’s Nazira (@nazirakassenova) is a DJ and vinyl collector, as well as promoter working within the undergound club scene of Kazakhstan. We had the pleasure to witness her skill at Unsound Dislocation: Bishkek in Kyrgyzstan, where she has played local Panorama Bar. Now you can check her deep and atmospheric selection of tracks before she comes to Kraków to play b2b with our resident DJ Olivia.

"All my mixes are bound to the mood I am in at the moment I record it. This mix caught me in rather good mood and I wanted to record something you could hear me play in the club at 3 am. Consists of things I enjoyed listening to lately." - @naziranazira

Fresh Kicks 108: Nazira

Nazira is a real powerhouse. She has almost single handedly built up an electronic music scene in her native Almaty in Kazakhstan. She runs her own ZVUK nights in a range of unique settings, was responsible for bringing a one off edition of Unsound to the region in 2017, and after word spread about her skills, she has gone on to represent around Europe while hosting workshops back home that aim to grow local talents. All this is even more impressive given how far removed her hometown is from the rest of the global circuit.

As a DJ, host on Radio Cómeme and resident at Berlin’s Room 4 Resistance, Nazira brings physicality and angular rhythm to her work. For this week’s mix, she kicks off with skeletal bass and huge open spaces of futuristic ambiance before the jittery techno and industrial drum loops take over. Melodies rarely appear, instead the mood is dark, heads down, and focussed. It is the sound of an artist who is assured and uncompromising, which is a perfect reflection of the DJ behind it.
