DJ Set Recordings

A new beginning has arrived..

I invite you to dive deep into my inaugural set recorded at the soft-launch of Zanda Rec — 17.06.2023 named ‘New Beginnings’

As you may know, Zanda is my new events brand and record label based in the Northern Rivers of Australia (Bundjalung Country).

I had the opportunity to run an open-air event with an intimate crowd of friends to start its journey.

And the beginning of this journey has been ever so blissful… 

I named the mix 'New Beginnings' as it's the first under my solo alias 'Torü Szafar'. 

After waiting for the right moment to release the mix, I am thrilled to be finally sharing it with you all. 

It encapsulates what I have been listening to recently and shows some of the sounds I want to share. 

You will find a mixture of deep house and techno tracks by some incredible artists, as well as four original productions (3 of those unreleased). 

I hope you all enjoy the mix and feel the energy from the night. It was a wonderful experience collecting all these tracks and playing them to a beautiful crowd in a luscious, cozy environment.

With love,
TS

New Beginnings - DJ Set Recorded @ Zanda Rec Soft-Launch 17/06/23

It's hard to put into words exactly what Dal Ocal is and has become in what was it's 4th edition..

To put it simply, it's a private gathering of close friends that come together and build a small festival for each other on beautiful, sacred Australian bushland, so that they can frolic, play, laugh, cry, dance, connect & much much more.

It truly is a magical 5 days that we spend together co-creating with the purest intentions.

This set was recorded from 9:30-10:30pm on NYE. It was an absolute pleasure to share music at this time and build towards bringing in the new year.

I hope you can feel the magic and love put in,
TS

Dal Ocal 23/24 - DJ Set Recorded @ Dal Ocal Gathering 31/12/23

Torü Szafar [ @toruszafar ] is an Australian DJ and producer renowned for his ability to merge deep grooves that sway the hips with morphing layers that bend the mind.

With over 7 years of experience in the industry, Torü has graced the stages of Naarm/Melbourne's vibrant club nights and festivals (also formerly as part of duo - fütwerk), supporting top artists with his hypnotic rhythms and ethereal melodies. Now based near Byron Bay, Torü is already making waves in the area being booked for various local festivals and club-shows. He is motivated to continue infusing the coastal scene with quality sounds and his unique blend of frequencies.

Inspired by his natural surroundings, Torü's music reflects the beauty and energy of the Australian landscape. His recent venture, Zanda Rec, a record label and event series, promises to champion emerging talent and push the boundaries of electronic music further, reflecting Torü's unwavering commitment to innovation and sonic exploration.

Following up his debut solo release last year on Portuguese label @frequencia-introspectiva, Torü's next release sees him releasing another single on a compilation for another Portuguese label, @atmos_lab. This tribal, deep hypnotic techno groover will be out in the next month!

Currently he is in the studio finishing up the debut release for his own imprint, Zanda Rec. This is set to be a 6 track EP, with 4 originals and 2 remixes.

In the events space, after a successful launch party for Zanda in Feb this year, Torü has just launched his next event which is a collaboration with friend and fellow DJ/Producer Davi Bangma. This will be taking place on Saturday May 11 in the hinterland of Byron Bay and feature Davi and Torü on the lineup!
