Terra Traces w/ Tifra B2B Match Box - 6th August 2025

Our next guest is a great friend and absolute TOP DJ/digger and producer, Maï-Linh.

Over the past decade, she has quietly evolved into a standout artist, balancing raw passion with refined artistry, underscored by her residencies at Macadam and NTS Radio. Her sound bridges euphoric rave-progressive-euro-house with introspective influences like trip-hop, IDM, post-punk, and downtempo, reflecting the complexity and nuance of her identity.

A devoted digger and champion of imperfection, Maï-Linh finds magic in the overlooked treasures of the 80s-90s/early 2000, dedicating countless hours on Discogs to uncover timeless tracks that defy trends. This meticulous curiosity shapes a sound that is both daring and nostalgic, radiant yet contemplative.
Her love of discovery extends beyond herself. Through CTW Podcasts—a project she founded over a decade ago—she amplifies voices from across the globe, bringing headliners and hidden gems together. "From sunlit downtempo to shadowy club sounds, it’s all about building bridges without borders or pretension," she explains.

When Maï-Linh steps into the booth, the connection is electric. Her ability to navigate a crowd, transforming the space into a shared journey, is unparalleled. Each performance transcends the moment, leaving traces that resonate long after the music fades.

Rádio Exótica #007 - Maï-Linh

A platform for parties and mix series based in Amsterdam, for likeminded artists and dancers to share music grounded in movement, intimacy, and connection. With a deep love for house in its most sensual, physical form. Where the dance floor is sacred, the sound is warm and full, and the energy flows between DJs and dancers. A place for connection on the dance floor. For Body Heat 004 we're teaming up for a 2-hour b2b or our take on house

Body Heat w/ Tiflis & Oddysee - 9th August 2025

Hard to put a finger on this one. Bit of a dream to get lost in. No peaks and troughs really, just perpetual sequences, rhythms and even words filtering in and out. Joe’s always had a unique approach to djing, where the way things are done is just as important, if not more, than what’s being done. Despite calling the mix ‘off the cuff’, the guy’s seemingly got some backlog of ideas. Here's one, or several.

As well as a Freerotation mainstay, Joe is the other half behind the enigmatic UntilMyHeartStops label. It’s been quiet for a few years but what’s out there is worth your time and timeless in itself. Check it. @untilmyheartstops
