'Atlantis' on Operator Radio

For the first episode of Atlantis we’re zooming into the underwater worlds of James Stinson and Gerald Donald, two of my absolute personal heroes whose music have seen a big amount of rereleases in the past months. A true blessing for whoever holds a connection with the Drexciyan Empire as some of their work became unaffordable. These reissued works form the base of this show, complemented by many other records, rereleases or not, old and new, that hold a link to Afro Futurism or songs I just love.

Atlantis 9 'Chants of a Black Hole' Ambient special w/ aQa - Operator Radio 05-03-24

Electronic waves ~

Previously as Operating Modus.

"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 endless 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."
