TRUANTS x Refuge Worldwide #1 - Villella & Soraya

Music might be the main dish that London-based DJ and radio host Sofie K is serving up, but her creative pursuits stretch much further than that. Also a dab hand at writing, illustrating, designing and broadcasting (is there anything she can't do!?) she uses every tool at her disposal to paint a solid picture of who and what Sofia is all about.

Her residency on NTS began as a platform to share her favourite sounds, predominantly in the realms of Italo, cosmic disco and synth-pop, but as her show has grown so has the breadth of her sound, which sees her dip into everything from breaks, techno and house pumpers to trance, new beat and minimal synth. 

When she's not broadcasting each month you can find her behind the decks at various fine establishments across the UK, including regular stints at club nights High Hoops and Partisan Collective in her former home of Manchester.

On today's mix she comes through with the wiggly, melodic pumpers and driving rhythms to help you shake off those sore heads from the weekend's club antics...

Craigie Knowes - 11 September 2021

~ Gene Tellem [Canada] ~

Gene Tellem is a Montreal-based DJ who has righteously been very much on the rise lately. Inheriting from a background in piano and guitar, she had her first time in dance music in the late 2000s while working as a customer service assistant at the traditional Piknic Électronik event. After getting her hands dirty following some DJ lessons and trying to put theory into practice, the watershed from taking casual DJing to a professional activity was her discovery of the house icon Moodymann. Things quickly got serious then when she started to build the All Good party series with her partner Kris Guilty. From 2018 onwards, she has been proving a lightning rise; from making her debuts with the dazzling *Who Says No* EP on Project Pablo's label SOBO to hitting Boiler Room's legendary decks. Only a year after, she founded her own label Bienvenue Recordings and has been a staple in the city's underground scene and beyond since. When it comes to production, her sound is both warm, groovy and welcoming, which ensues a mind-bending deep house vibe reminiscent of a friendly invitation to introspective daydreaming. 

Here she is proving again her versatility and skillfulness, compiling a blinding mix which oscillates between ambient and deep house. Her mix takes in music from Ian Pooley, Session Victim or The Detroit Experiment, and translates into an atmospheric voyage and a certified brain stimulation.
