This is a pandemic mix. It’s been sitting privately on Soundcloud since 2020. I originally recorded this for Sacha as a Holiday gift at a time when the pandemic hadn’t allowed us to see each other. Going out dancing was out of the question and life in general was one stressful day after another. A lot had changed in the world and we were constantly reminded of just how messed up things are in society. Honestly, for months it was really hard to listen to any music at all, never mind attempt to DJ.

But doing this mix for her helped me get out of a funk. It finally got me to listen to music and enjoy the process again. Some of the blends in this mix have become signature segments in my sets, and although it’s very different from what people knew me to play, it is very much me. I dug into my past, grabbed songs that had captured me in recent times, and included things that you wouldn't think could go well together but blended like alchemy. 

I wanted this to sound the closest to a night out. The opening set to a night we could not have. Thankfully that's changed. Hope you enjoy it.

DJ Chia Pudding takes having fun very seriously.

A dancer first, she’s drawn to what moves her. Deeply inspired by the R&B and hip hop of the 90s and early 00s, her selections are at once forward looking while also referencing this admired era of her earliest dance floor memories. While her sets are not confined to one genre, they typically lean towards the sounds of the UK bass continuum and invite you to fall in love and/or lose your mind.

Katiusha's sound roams the plains of electronic music, exploring its furthest reaches and unearthing hidden gems; combine this with a complex blend of house, techno and hand-picked zesty UK flavours and you have something unmistakably hers, however, it's not just the selections that make Katiusha's sets and mixes so distinctive; it's her sharper sense and focus that creates a musical voyage completely her own and mix #215 for our series is a perfect example of this.

These days you'll find her in Berlin where she's been adding this unique sound to revered spots like Griessmühle, About:Blank, and Cashmere Radio, as well as international appearances at festivals such as Cosmic Roots and, of course, Dimensions Festival.

DIM215 - Katiusha

Social Studies has been a staple of the Boston dance music scene for 11 years, holding a special place at the heart of the underground for the heads and providing a gateway to the music we love for upcoming generations of dancers in a city where cultural preservation is vital.

At its core, Social Studies is about just loving (and nerding out about) music. A night guarantees eclectic selections from exciting emerging talents with unique musical perspectives. Dance music and the scene has seen more transformations than we can remember, but today our mission remains the same, and we’re thrilled to continue the journey with new and old faces.
