Bringing back a bit of summer with the first recorded interview from this past @dimensionsfestival in Tisno, Croatia. This was my second year hosting talks at the lovely Haze stage and the first guest in our little series is Australian DJ and Animalia label boss, @kia-sydney.
A longtime lover of dance music who started DJing in 2015, Kia’s sets travel from dark and driving to playful and euphoric with complete ease — she’s an artist who refuses to limit herself, and her sound only benefits from not being boxed in, while her label’s exports are as adventurous and exciting as she is. More than just a creative outlet, music is a form of personal expression for Kia, and she is an expert in crafting not only DJ performances, but mixes that are often akin to a diary. As always for these live talks, rather than honing in on one topic, we’re exploring each artist’s journey and the musical pursuits that make them who they are.

For this month’s episode, I’m joined by Portuguese producer and label boss João Barbosa, better known as @Brankoofficial.
Perhaps best known for his work as a founding member of kuduro meets techno group @BurakaSomSistema, and his label @Enchufada Records, which was born in 2006 as a creative platform for the band’s many outputs.
These days, Branko is focusing on his solo project, which continues to celebrate global club music and collaborations from not only all over the world, but all across the musical spectrum. For episode 75, we’re taking a look back at Enchufada’s history, from its days as a hub for the band to its diverse explorations in global club music.
Special thank you to @thehortonbrothers who worked on the sound for this month's episode!
