@loiflan

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself?

Hi! My name is Declan (he/him), currently residing in Melbourne/Naarm. I’m trying to learn Hungarian at the moment so I can apply for dual citizenship.


How did you get your DJ name? 

I was at a festival a few years ago and while sitting around the campsite talking shit a few friends started coming up with nicknames for me. They eventually went from Declan > Lecdan > Doiflan > Loifdan. Drop the dan and ‘LOIF’ was born.

Dream line-up?

In no particular order:
Objekt
Livwutang
Roza Terenzi
Dregs (LIVE)
Bambounou
Harold
Aphex Twin (LIVE)
CCL
Polar
DJ Sprinkles
Moopie
DJ Stingray

Second pick for your DJ name?

Probably something with the word ‘Tek’ in it.

What is the theme song of your life?

What is your favorite time of day?

4:20

Any advice to upcoming producers/djs?

I think probably the hardest part of getting into either practice is the steep learning curve (especially with producing). What I found most helpful was learning from other people. When I first started playing around with mixing and buying records I was lucky that a large chunk of my mates were all getting into it at the same time. I spent sooooo many days just endlessly mixing with friends and we would constantly share music and ideas and concepts, many of which still inform my style today. I doubt I would’ve stuck with it if it wasn’t for such a passionate and supportive group of people I was lucky to learn with. Similar can be said about producing - I have found collaboration to be endlessly helpful. Every single time I’ve worked with other producers/musicians/mixing engineers etc. I’ve picked up at least one or two techniques or ideas that have been essential in the way I make music going forward. Everyone has a different way of doing things and you can only benefit from getting a wide range of perspectives on how people practice their craft.

Also, don’t be too concerned about buying super fancy top-of-the-line gear - if anything learning on a less than ideal set up can be beneficial going forward. I would probably be a much worse DJ if I hadn’t started mixing records on cheap audio-technica turntables. By the same token, having a limited set up when producing (ie. a shitty laptop, 2 VSTs and a handful of samples) is limiting but allows you to learn the basics without being overwhelmed and will make the transition to more complicated gear and techniques much smoother in the future.

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

There’s a lot that would be good to see but I think more emphasis on safer spaces for dancers, performers and artists are incredibly important. Unfortunately in Naarm unwanted attention, sexual abuse and sometimes violence is a regular occurence in a lot of clubs where promoters and venue owners don’t put the necessary work into making sure this type of behaviour is stamped out. When these safe spaces are created it’s an incredibly powerful feeling knowing you are safe to express yourself and that everyone shares the same level of respect for one another. A new club that just opened in the CBD called Miscellania has done an amazing job in fostering this kind of environment, partly due to the fact that they trained friends to work on the door as security and ensure the right kind of people were coming in. Too bad it was only open for two weeks before we went back into lockdown :’(

Berlin-based Katiusha is known for building hi-energy, intricate stories on the dancefloor. With a background in experimental radio and non-profit parties, her taste has always extended far and wide – but her club selections draw heavily on atmospheric rollers, leftfield techno, and UK impact. Flying from hardcore to jungle, techno to dubstep and some ambient nuances; fearlessly barrels through genres with the utmost care and precision - truly one of the tidiest DJs.

This sound has caught the attention of revered venues like FOLD, Tresor, and Berghain’s SÄULE. On air, she's played for Boiler Room, Rinse FM, and Moxie’s semanal NTS show and Festivals like Dimensions and Cosmic Roots. Last year she made a strong entrance onto the production scene with debuts on Peach Discs and Idle Hands: in 2024 she leaned into a more trippy bass sound, releasing on dubstep imprint SPLOT and, more recently, her own label GRACE. The label is a new project for hazy club sonics, with a DIY ethos and producer equity at its core.

Long story short, you can trust Katiusha to provide the best wubs and cosmic rollers, so you don't want to miss this percussive but surrounding mix.

++++plus, Nice to know that she has created some good memories in Paisa lands! Go listen.

Coffee & Cigarettes w/ Big Hands 04/10/24 - [Voices Radio]

@aasana, or the sound of rupture, an escape into an ordered electronic chaos. Whether through building the programming of the impetuous Macadam, with his intersectionnal crew named Zone Rouge, or in his sharp sets ranging from organic ambient, disorienting bass, to a resigned techno, Aasana is a bright daredevil, embodying the plurality of what electronic music can offer, with its diverse and uninhibited aesthetics & projects.

ENG · Version (FR on IG)
~ This podcast draws its inspiration from one of my recent dreams. It all begins aboard a train, speeding towards an unknown destination. Through the window, I see only wild landscapes, lush with greenery, stretching endlessly into the distance. Then, suddenly, the train reaches its terminus. In front of me stands a colossal stone door, carved like a riddle.

I step onto the platform, the train pulls away, leaving me alone... or almost. I look around. The setting, imbued with an early 20th-century London atmosphere, emerges in the flickering glow of the street lamps, making the wet ground glisten. In the distance, at the far end of this seemingly endless platform, I glimpse a figure. A man approaches, his unsteady gait wavering between that of a drunkard and a zombie. Strangely, I feel no threat. The man seems to simply wander, perhaps he was the station’s caretaker, slowly driven mad by loneliness.

I continue to take in this peculiar place. In the distance, I can once again see the wild vegetation I had admired just moments before. But here, the landscape is darker, almost austere, with raw stones dominating the space. I feel as though I am in a vast cavern, where every step echoes beneath a vaulted ceiling that rises nearly thirty meters above me. Water trickles down the gray rock walls, partially covered with moss and long, mysterious roots unknown to me. Small streams wind their way across the platform, creating cracks as their peaceful sounds soothe my senses.

Then, turning around, I notice the door has vanished. Now, I find myself facing a vast, black tunnel, from which strange noises emerge. I realize that I am standing at the entrance to my own subconscious. This podcast recounts that arrival, but more importantly, it chronicles a journey into the unfathomable abyss of my mind, a dark chasm for which I hold no keys. ~
