Hi there,

My name is Jeff, and I'm with Operator, an online radio station and cultural platform based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Next month, we’ll be traveling to Japan with a small crew to host a special radio pop-up in collaboration with Sabukaru at COMPLEX BOOST. The broadcasts will take place on June 12 and 13.

We’d love to invite someone from your team to host a show during our broadcast days. We’re also keen to meet up in person, and if there’s space in your schedule, perhaps a few of us could do a guest mix at your station on June 22?

A Way With Music w/ Osmanbas - 13th November 2025

Suriname 1772. Soundscapes, selected tracks and interviews blend to make a history of how the music of the people in the colony was attacked and repressed by the ruling whitened elite. This episode begins with a sonic journey from the Dutch polders, to Rotterdam, the West African fortress of Elmina and finally Paramaribo, Suriname. Later we discuss the role of cultural racism and the policing of everyday practices such as singing, drumming and dancing in upholding dominance. We learn how these policies failed and, crucially, why Sranan music was so feared by the colonial authorities.

Moses' intentions are guided not by a specific genre but more of a feeling — a freakiness embedded in misfit machine music scattered across the decades.

How can one make their own personal development and artistic process explicit, and in doing so, use that to collaborate with people around them? 
Acknowledging that one’s personality and sonic interests are ever-changing, diverse, and versatile takes centre stage in “xcepting,” where xceptor, the show’s namesake, engages in a musical discourse with fellow artists and musicians that deepens and expands both his and their practice. Be it a b2b with somebody whose worlds have the potential to colour each other, or a wholly-focused action in which the invited can take the reins, the Rotterdam-based DJ/Producer creates a space for musical exploration with whoever he feels creatively aligned with in that particular moment. 
Although these two hours largely remain grounded in electronic music, expect the occasional endeavour into music’s outer realms.
