Anja Zaube’s DJ-bio starts in 2000, when she began playing psytrance but quickly turned towards playing more and more techno. After first appearances in the left-winged underground of Berlin under the alias „Nanday“ she took a short break and had a come-back to the turntables in 2008 with her new name ANJA ZAUBE. That’s when she started playing in clubs such as Golden Gate, Cassiopeia. Lately you can listen to her sets in ://about blank for example (among others). 

After playing different genres of electronic dance music, Anja‘s sound turned darker and harder. Her interpretation of Techno is deep, bleak, but also industrial and experimental. That‘s what makes her sound unique and what finally got her several bookings in Berghain already and made her a popular DJ in the Berlin Underground Techno Scene. 

 After her first release in 2014 on the ://about blank 001, a sampler in celebration oft he club‘s jubilee, she also released her first own EP on the label HET, named Sylvan Structes EP, and is gonna release a lot more soon, starting with her own label which is gonna be launched in January 2016.

Mishra are a global folk collective with strong roots in U.K folk, out of which they weave a tight web of intricate, Indian-influenced original music that defies definition and has already brought awards recognition since their formation in 2017. Kate Griffin (The Magpies) and Ford Collier (BBC R2 Folk Award nominated The Drystones) are the songwriting partnership behind Mishra, drawing on their unique base of influences that encompasses folk music of the UK and America, Indian classical music, and soul to create a surprisingly accessible sound that audiences instantly connect to. Between the two of them, Kate and Ford create a rich texture from their array of instruments: Irish low whistle, banjo, Indian tabla, dobro, African calabash, and guitar, all of which provide a vibrant backdrop to Kate’s striking vocals. Their set is entirely original and traditional, apart from a popular cover of Gillian Welch’s Scarlet Town, receiving airplay on the BBC Radio 2 Folk Show by Mark Radcliffe.

​

While Mishra are a duo at their core, they frequently expand the line up, adding renowned tabla player John Ball (Rafiki Jazz, Indus), jazz-folk double bassist Joss Mann-Hazell, and musicians from the Sheffield folk, world, and jazz scenes.Kate Griffin- Vocals and Clawhammer Banjo
Ford Collier- Guitar, Tin Whistle, and Percussion
Joss Mann-Hazell- Double Bass and Bouzouki

I have taught piano for over 25 years, and in 2014 started writing a few songs. They are about life, love, being LGBT, being neuro-diverse, being different in a world that tells us to conform. I released "Stories&Music" album in 2015 in aid of Diversity Role Models, and "Every Journey" EP featuring my wife Jo on bass and Paul Reynolds on additional instruments and mixing, in 2020.
