In a book about the Japanese tea ceremony, the author explains:

‘Great attention should be given to a tea gathering, which we can speak of as "one time, one meeting" (ichi-go, ichi-e). Even though the host and guests may see each other often socially, one day's gathering can never be repeated exactly. Viewed this way, the meeting is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime occasion.’

It is very similar with DJing. Each time it is different and distinctive. I was so happy to have this ‘once-in-a-lifetime occasion’ on Saturday at the Moon stage of Draaimolen Festival 2025. It was a wonderful opportunity to share a lot of music full of meaning and memories. My sincere thanks to all those who joined and made this gathering possible. I hope you enjoy listening to what happened.

"Meet aQa, a Rotterdam-based DJ whose boundless approach to electronic music is both precise and dynamic. Rooted in a deep respect for the art of composing and using the element of water as his cornerstone, aQa’s sets flow seamlessly from atmospheric ambient and IDM to blistering 90’s electro and hard-edged Detroit techno that will shift any audience into top gear. 

With appearances at De School, Breakfast Club, Drift and HÖR Berlin, alongside his monthly Atlantis residency on Operator Radio, aQa has cemented himself as a strong voice in the depths of electronic music. His music draws from a deep well of influences, blending the forward-thinking ethos of artists like Brian Eno and Biosphere with the aquatic mythos of Drexciya and the raw energy of Underground Resistance, offering a sound that feels both timeless and forward-looking.

Whether helming the decks in intimate spaces or expansive festival stages, aQa’s performances are as fluid as they are ferocious. Operating at the crossroads of instinct and intention, aQa leaves a resonance that lingers long after the final track."
