It's likely you've seen Amaliah's name echoing around London's underground music circles over the last few years. If not, where have you been? 

The London born and bred DJ and producer has become known for her punchy sets that celebrate the sounds of the UK's underground electronic scene, from garage, bass and breaks to house and techno. What strings them together is the energy she brings to the booth, whether it's in the club or on the airwaves, it's impossible not to dance.

Cutting her teeth playing her formative musical influences - soul, funk and disco - she went on to broaden her palate into the world of club music; sounds that you can hear on Borne Fruits, her regular show on Balamii Radio, where she also works as a producer.

Borne Fruits stretches further than just radio though. As well as throwing sporadic parties around the capital, Amaliah recently extended the platform to include a label arm which will serve as a space for her own productions and releases from like-minded producers.

November saw the launch of the imprint and with it her debut release which, unsurprisingly, is custom-made for the dance floor. With plenty more in store for Borne Fruits this year, we thought what better time to get her on board to give you a taste of what she's all about...

Amaliah: The 'Shine A Light On' Mix

To contribute something to the series I recorded a few warmup‘s that I played recently in clubs. I chose the one recorded at my residency club in Cologne - Gewölbe. Beginning with Ambient, building up with Trance and House ending with some 4-to-the-floor tracks. Normally I’m recording mixes with a prepared selection at home, for this one I decided to take a club recording as mixing in clubs is more a spontaneous and energetic thing in comparison to mixing at home. Only Vinyl, like always.

In her regular show for THF Radio @bb_fm usually interprets colors, but the mix today will cover all stages of a heartbreak: from sadness to anger, to excess and back again, hoping to recover eventually. Sink into your feelings; cry, scream, run, and dance. bb:fm is a specialist when it comes to emotional music journeys. Listen, trust, and heal.

For our project »Switching Frequencies« we invited @thfradio from Berlin for a showcase. THF Radio is a community radio broadcasting from the former Tempelhof Airport in Berlin. The project was initiated by Callshop Radio to encourage more cooperation and exchange within the radio community. We want to share ideas, expand our knowledge, grow our network and build a cooperating community.

Switching Frequencies - Heartbreak Special w/ bb:fm 22.07.23

"I had been looking for a proper home for this baby since the gig took place in September, with just myself and Objekt on the evening's bill and a dancefloor full of tough groovers that don't mind getting a little glitched out. I love the journey I went on with this one. It's certainly a trip, if you're looking for that kinda thing. Heavyweight bass, frenetic and strangely seductive, freaky hypnosis, crunchy body rollers, space exploration, sonic puzzlement ~ 2 hours of energy for the heady psychonauts that also like to shake their ass. My little sweet spot."

Yax Invites #170 - DJ Zoik

Pleasure Planet's kaleidoscopic debut album has been a long time coming, but good things come to those who wait. Developed over years of late-night studio improvisations, 'Pleasure Planet' is an affectionate and colorful patchwork of the New York City-based trio's knotted influences that's suspended between the rave and the chill-out room, weaving glistening pads and chunky basslines into vocal earworms and warm, saturated rhythmic cycles. Bandmates Andrew Potter, Kim Ann Foxman and Brian Hersey enter into a lysergic dialog with their discrete personal musical histories, drawing inspiration from vintage EBM, ambient music and heady early '90s West Coast rave sounds and launching these classic elements into a transcendent new sonic universe.

Kosh joins Craigie Knowes for his label debut record ‘Back on Track’. Kosh delivers 4 tracks packed to the brim with Detroit heritage merged with his own original style and signature Casablanca take on the origins of house, techno and the space between. Title track ‘Back on Track’ is an ever-building acid-journey guaranteed to rock in the clubs.

‘Breaksit’ gives us a chance to breathe as we embark on a trip that melds the signature Kosh and Craigie Knowes sounds into a pure and emotive composition. ‘Ridge Racer’ returns us to our feet with bounce, rhythm and octave changes to elevate your next DJ-set. ‘Digital Dilemma’ takes us from North Africa across the Atlantic to the Motor City and reminds us of everything we love about club-focussed, Detroit inspired, techno.

It’s pure Kosh and it’s pure Craigie Knowes, enjoy!
