Mixes/Radio

Kyoto-born, Berlin-based DJ, producer and artist, Alex Kassian has become a firm favourite of ours over here at Phonica over the past couple of years. His sophisticated, lush and organic sounding productions have been picked up by labels such as Paramida’s Love On The Rocks and Alex Bradley’s Utopia Records in recent years. His most recent release, Leave Your Life, was released in 2021 via Pinchy & Friends, and we can safely say it was one of our most-played, and bestselling, records of the year.

Together with Hiroaki OBA, Alex is also one-half of Opal Sunn, who have been operating their own imprint Planet Sundae since 2017, through which they self-released a number of EPs, catching the attention of and support from dance music luminaries such as Andrew Weatherall and DJ Sprinkles.

PLANET 2 PLANET : FIONA INVITE ALDONNA - 22 Janvier 2024

Angel D'lite b2b Aldonna b2b dj sweet6teen - 21 February 2024

As a DJ/Producer and Founder of event/mix series/music blog Re-Leaf Aldonna has rightfully marked her position as one of the most exciting new talents to come out of Australia in recent times. Coming off the back of her debut international tour through the summer months in the EU/UK and successfully playing 12 shows across the continents, she shows no signs of
slowing down any time soon.

Name checked as an experienced ‘selector’ well beyond her years and carrying along a rapidly growing discography of her own productions, Aldonna holds a keen ear and talent for bringing light to those uncovered lost gems which inspire her the most. She wanders slickly through 90s and early 00s euphoric electronic soundscapes, touching on trance, breaks, psychedelic, progressive house, and techno. However, pigeonholing her sound would be giving her work a huge disservice. She conjures unique sonic palettes yet brings together one vast yet identifiable sound
and culture - rave music.

Aldonna’s staggering debut EP ‘Morph’ on New York Imprint ‘Homage’ was no mean feat. Empowering, immersive, bubbling. Following on recently with her second EP 'Angel Numbers' which came in the form of 4 joyous hits of euphoria, released on Bristol vinyl only imprint 'Sex Tapes From Mars'. The record excitedly bounced through its track list and the numerous blissed-out progressive and percussive grooves within it. Alongside these releases she has also contributed tracks to numerous highly successful VAs on labels such as Permanent Vacation, Semi-Delicious, Terrazzo Trax, Maai Records & more.Her unique approach to music production has led to incredible
credits, premiers, and reviews from the likes of Mixmag, Trommel, Resident Advisor and support from many esteemed artists such as Job Jobse, Palm Trax, Saoirse, Sally C, Cromby, Jennifer Cardini, Eris Drew, Octo Octa, Eclair Fifi, Fantastic Man & more.

Evidently, Aldonna is one to watch. She continues to prove herself as a powerful figure in dance music with a momentum and following that is swiftly expanding.
