Vlada (@playvlada) has been playing all over the globe since just 18 years of age. Russia-born but Berlin-based for many years now, her sound is defined by a long, winding mixing style and is built on hypnotic basslines that slowly but surely zone you out. 

That very much comes out in this week's mix which initially locks you into a signature meditative pace but then builds with smart gear shifts and technical mixes. There are acid flashes to liven things up, bright synths spiraling around electrifying techno, broken beats to keep things moving then more stark industrial and metallic textures that place you at the heart of a strobe-lit and floor. It is another masterful mix full of must-find tunes from this ever more essential selector.

Nicely nestled amongst Sammy Dee, Moopie & Magda Bytnerowicz, I was asked to replace Grandmaster Zip (Perlon) for the party hosted by Lifeworld & Spincycle. I warmed up for Sammy Dee, and this is what that sounded like.

Next one comes from Brussels again. This time Alfred Anders is taking us on a journey. We still have sweet memories of the first time we met him at his store, Crevette Records. Since then, he has been a great inspiration to us for what a record shop should be like.

SPHEREmental 14 - Alfred Anders

We’re stepping into a new season with a fresh set straight from Leipzig’s Neue Welle Garden, served up by Miss Take <3 curating the vibe with a sixth sense for the room, flipping spaces with a collection that sneaks up on you and gently takes you on unexpected journeys of good feelings, keeping it warm and trippy.

No heavy lifting here—we travel light and leave all worries behind. A nostalgic, seductive sound with soft, cheeky vocals and naïve melodies lingers in the wide-open sky as we roll. Spring is here, the sun is shining—let’s ride.
