SMALLCAST: 159. FAIA (Oslo/Norway)

Small Records is a Norwegian independent record label based in Oslo, that specialises in Electronic music genres like Techno, House, Melodic, Deep House, Minimal, Deep Tech and Tech House.  

The label was established in 2010 by founder, DJ, promoter and producer Eric Small, initially to distribute the debut EP “Super Superficial” by Poporn Radio and “Great outdoors” by Mudman, both releases was only distributed on CD’s. From this point on the releases came frequently on digital platforms.

In 2015, the label released “Still Sleepy EP” by Mudman, This was a turning point for the label. The release got some steady remixes from great producers like Marcello V.O.R., Lars Wickinger, and Robert Solheim to mention a few. The release gained massive support from many well established Dj’s around the world. The next success was “Deep Sea” by Arthur Thalison & Caia Lopez from Brazil. With vocals by Cari Golden and remixes from Sezer Uysal, DLC and Andre Anttony, the EP received lots of positive feedback and support.

After this the label signed and released numerous EP’s, compilations and albums, and Small Records now has 47 releases with over 300 tracks from more than 80 different artists and groups around the globe. After a longer break, due to label boss Eric Smalls very successful, but also time consuming club Elefant, Small Records is now back! Watch out for some really amazing new music soon to be released, and stay tuned for the next chapters of this journey trough the wonderful world of electronic music.

Faia (Romklang Records / Pointzero Rec / Music4Aliens / Femmes Fatales / Small Records. NO)

Faia is a well-established figure in the Norwegian electronic music scene, having worked in the industry for well over a decade as a DJ and club promoter. 
Her reputation as a versatile artist is built on a deep interest for techno and house music, and her talent has taken her to some of Norway's top clubs, venues, and festivals including the open-air festival in Oslo, Sommerøya.
She has graced the decks at some of the country’s most esteemed venues like The Villa, Jaeger, Elefant, Storgata 26, and Hausmania in Oslo, Skur14 in Bergen, BrukBar/Blæst and Rockheim in Trondheim, and Cementen in Stavanger.

Faia's reputation has spread beyond Norway's borders, with bookings at renowned techno and house clubs across Europe, including Culture Box, Ved Siden Af, Club VOID, The Deaf Institute, LOFTAS, and Burning Man Week (SE). Her performances have taken her to Germany's top clubs like Rummels Bucht, Golden Gate, and Bohnengold, as well as festivals like Stroga Festival 2018, Sandsteinhöhlen 2019, MIT DIR Festival 2023 and MOYN Festival 2024. In Thailand, she played at the Jai Thep Festival in 2019.

As a promoter, Faia has been instrumental in empowering female DJs in the industry, organizing successful Femmes Fatales' events with both local and international artists since 2010. She has also been a resident DJ with the Small Records label for many years and now runs the SmallCast mix series.

In 2018, Faia got into producing and started a collaboration with Norwegian producer Duppeditt. Together they co-own the label Romklang Records and have been releasing music. Their hard work has paid off, with the duo getting signed to the PointZer0 Rec label in 2021 and having three releases on their V.A series 'The Explorer'. In 2022, they released 'Small Beings' on Music4Aliens V.A 'New Aliens Vol.3', and released their first ‘Escape EP’ on Amw Black Label in 2023. They also joined Joker Black Label in 2024 with the Alpha Machine EP.

Faia's skill behind the decks has earned her gigs alongside renowned DJs and producers such as Oxia, Pig&Dan, Ida Engberg, Djuma Soundsystem, Phaxe, Nastia, BeSvendsen, Guy J, Kruse and Nuernberg, DJ Hell, Turmspringer, Beddermann & Dahlmann, Ben Klock, Recondite, Gabriel Ananda, Lampé, Joseph Disco, Ramiro Lopez, TiM TASTE, Thomas Schumacher, Township Rebellion, and Moog Conspiracy.

Faia's musical style is characterized by deep, dark, groovy, techy, psychedelic and hard minimal, techno, and house. She occasionally enjoys playing downtempo chill out, melodic, organic and deep house sets for more easy listening. With her impressive track record and passion for the craft she continues to be a driving force in the electronic music scene.
