SANDRIEN ▪ 909 FESTIVAL WEEKEND 2023

A key exponent of Amsterdam’s techno scene, Sandrien definitely counts as one of the finest jockeys around. A gifted selector and just as skilled groove manipulator, she has been a constant in a world full of variables, quietly making it to the top of the game thanks to her impeccably crafted sets, both alone and alongside legends such as Ben Sims, DJ Nobu or Inigo Kennedy. Tirelessly pushing for new approaches to DJing and also production, Sandrien has been carving out a niche of her own, elegantly weaving the classic drive of 90s techno with an all-embracing, future-facing take on electronics, always eager to incorporate new tropes and ways to tell her musical story on the dance floor. Slip into a world full of off-kilter analogue magic and deep-diving tech-y escapism, and let yourself get carried away.

Fafi Abdel Nour & Sandrien at Dekmantel Ten

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to host such an iconic figure from the Dutch Techno scene : SANDRIEN.

Amsterdam’s Sandrien is known for her versatile take on techno. From deep and atmospheric to high-energy breaks and acid; her dynamic track selection has made her a dance floor favourite in her hometown and beyond. With over twenty years in the game, there are hardly any iconic clubs and festivals Sandrien has not played. She has graced the stages of Lowlands Festival, Awakenings, Dekmantel and Draaimolen in The Netherlands, Norway’s Monument, Rainbow Disco Club in Japan and the club booths of Berlin’s Berghain, Bassiani in Tbilisi, Basement NY, Tunnel Pereira and Womb in Tokyo.

In Amsterdam, she used to be a resident of De School and its predecessor Trouw. The latter was home to Sandrien’s own techno club nights ‘Imprint’, through which she hosted a variety of national and international artists including Ben Sims, DVS1, Marcel Dettman, Oscar Mulero, Peter van Hoesen and Rødhåd. In addition, she was one of the founders of the city’s long-running LGBTQIA+ event series IsBurning.

For years, Sandrien spent her weekdays working in Amsterdam’s renowned record stores Rush Hour and Killacutz. This speaks to the imagination of her incredible record collection and musical knowledge. Her extensive library is precisely why she’s a champion of playing longer DJ sets, during which she always manages to build a solid bridge between old-school techno, and adventurous fresh sounds. Sandrien’s experience and ability to adapt to any setting also shows in her love for playing back-to-back with other artists, including DJ Nobu, Ben Sims and Philippa Pacho.

Occasionally, she likes to give the more house-leaning part of her collection a spin; high energy and acidic basslines woven together by the same solid groove her techno sets are known for.

Enjoy and feel free to share! Love & Techno

Interview

PARADOX PODCAST #181 -- SANDRIEN

Pull me farther, farther down
Deeper water, watch me drown
Your apartment, all I know
But if you love me, you'll let me go, let me go
Don't you see behind my back, my arms are bound?
You always had me figured out
I know you'll speak to all my doubts
So I'm leavin' now
Without a sound
It's automatic
Reaching for your number in the dark
A force of habit
I'm better now that I know who you are
It's automatic
Reaching for your number in the dark
I'm breaking habit
Who do you think I am?
You were there when it began
Just a ordinary man
Chasin' dreams when I can
You believed in my soul
Even when I let go
Let the ego get a hold of me

Its automatic
Late at night, I think Im loosing my mind
Why I always wanna call you
Cannot tell the difference between right or wrong
Why do I allways wanna kiss you?

Its automatic

Answering for you number in the dark

Ist automatic

Automatic (Lullaby Version)

Rotterdam-via-Berlin based outlet reuniting underground purveyors across the globe as they methodically scan and showcase various nerve centers from the techno Internationale.

After an epic first edition in 2011 with the name Revolution 909, the festival grew to be a regular no-nonsense Techno party in the years that followed. The recipe always stayed the same: one stage, an intimate vibe, and quality Techno.
