Having been a permanent fixture at Sunwaves for some time now, Romanian maestro Cezar is regularly called upon to put the finishing touches to the bi yearly marathon. For the huge 30th anniversary edition he was slap bang in the middle of the long weekend nestled in-between Rhadoo and Petre Insperescu. Cezar is one of a few acts who is capable of standing out from selectors of this calibre with the kind of track choices that leave even the most seasoned clubber wide eyed and jaw agape.

GROOVE Podcast 442 – Maayan Nidam

Cora M’s path to becoming a DJ and producer has been shaped by an unrelenting passion for music and a dedication to her craft. Her journey began in the underground clubs of Lyon and Montpellier, where she fell in love with the pulse of electronic music. By the age of 17, she was already experimenting with her first CD players, honing her skills in her bedroom before stepping onto the stage.
A pivotal move to Barcelona deepened her commitment, transitioning to vinyl and immersing herself in the vibrant music scene. It was here that her love for the German minimal and Romanian soundscapes blossomed, influenced by the energy of Berlin and the hypnotic rhythms of “ro-minimal”. 

These experiences helped shape her signature style—rooted in minimal yet enriched with groove, vocals, and eclectic influences from jazz to French classics.

Cora M’s background in music theory lends a depth to her track selection and productions, allowing her to craft sets that are both emotive and memorable. From her standout performances at Unum Festival to her residencies in Switzerland, she’s captivated audiences with her ability to adapt her sound to any venue, from intimate spaces to major festivals.

With her sights set on releasing music on labels like Perlon and Arpiar, Cora M continues to push boundaries as a producer. Her upcoming EP on Fratii and her work on a new album mark exciting milestones in her journey. For Cora M, DJing and production are more than just professions—they’re a way to share her story, connect with audiences, and shape the future of electronic music. Cora recently contributed a mix to our live series, live from South Nightclub in Verbier. Listen to the mix here, and head over to our site for more...

Cadenza EKOES 002 - Holchin

Modern hypnotics from a new techno star.

It's a tale as old as time: techno DJ moves to Berlin to chase a dream. Philippa Pacho is part of the latest wave of talent to tread that familiar path. But don't let that fool you. She's one of the classiest artists around—no TikTok gimmicks here.

Pacho's formative years were spent in her native Stockholm, navigating a vibrant DIY party scene that included warehouse raves and illegal parties. She eventually took up a long-standing residency at beloved local club Under Bron and the experience, as she details in this week's Q&A, sharpened her technical skills, teaching her to handle every type of set—whether opening with patience, supporting a headliner or closing with finesse. She also played with countless touring DJs, from Answer Code Request to Antony Parasole, which ultimately inspired her move to Berlin.

That relocation has firmly paid off. It's a testament to Pacho's talent that you'll find her playing pretty much every big club and festival across Europe, from Berghain and Dekmantel to FOLD and Monument (we were exhausted just looking at her upcoming listings on RA). Other recent highlights include closing out Bassiani's tenth birthday, and back-to-backs with Fadi Mohem and Sandrien. 

Pacho's RA Podcast showcases her preference for classy, hypnotic techno, striking a balance between muscle and subtle groove. Her aptitude for what makes dance floors tick is also evident on her two labels—Phorum Records and positivesource (co-run with Blue Hour)—both of which mirror her DJ style, blending intensity with delicate textures. positivesource has released several standout records, including this year's "Psycho" by BLANKA and Phil Berg's "Psyckik" (which you'll hear on this mix). 

Spanning 70 minutes, RA.980 is a window into Pacho's thoroughly modern sound (the oldest track is from 2018). And yet it retains a refined, sweeping quality. Give it a spin and you'll soon twig why she's in demand on dance floors worldwide.
