• AYLA HIBRI
Deeply involved in visual world building, Ayla Hibri captures her colourful, textural, and tactile cosmos through photography, drawings and paintings. In the sonic macrocosm, guide signs are spread all along her Scenic Route show, which embodies a journey through the stream of lively memories and sonic dwellings. The warm and eclectic dreamscapes of the Beirut-born, Amman-based jack of all trades will soften your ear canal and veil any form of existence under a melodic bloom. Delicately infused with splashes of percussions creeping from below a creatures’ land, intimate murmurs of poetry, and free floating nebulous rhythms, Ayla’s pensive compositions come close to anyone’s heartbeat.

• ALEXANDRA MARR
Alexandra Marr’s mixes defy easy categorization. Exploratory and composed with exceptional sensibility for harmony and ambience, they consistently bring seemingly disparate musical styles into an intimate dialogue. Marr’s trademark is her unique ability to straddle the divide between the uplifting and melancholic, the stripped-down and the embellished, always looking for soulfulness in places where few other might expect to find it.

• ANI PHOEBE
Ani Phoebe’s worlds are many but firmly rooted in a never-ending magnetic groove that leads through streams of nuanced synth-echoing whispers from the past. It’s never the same destination when she’s on diving duties — whether the Hong-Kong based navigator is dipping deep into ecstatic balearic bubbles, dripping disco saunas, or touching peculiar sides of blazing hip-hop, dub icebergs, and electronic strikes, she knows when to brake and when to break a dancefloor’s atmosphere. Impossible to place within a definite space or time, Ani Phoebe’s open-eared world will flourish TNP with an irresistible twist of coastal cliff dancing ecce.

• CHARMAINE
Charmaine radiates good vibes through her broad smile and any soundsystem. Her mixes are always more soulful than purgatory and range from easy listening to hard-hitting, depending on the setting and the soundsystem. Of course the purgatory simile falls flat when examining Charmaine’s sets; the joyous and colourful atmospheres she shapes have saved many a soul from eternal damnation. Her base of operations is Rotterdam, where she works as a Clone Records employee and as an Operator radio programmer. This constant exposure to music is reflected in the depth of her performances.

Always with energetic narratives and a one-way ticket to the tropics, Coco Maria can warm up your day even in the breeziest weather. Invoking the sun on various radio stations, she knows the place to all hot-and-sweaty celebrations and the secret to full body experiences of ankle-breaking rarities — are you ready to rock steady?

• DANIEL JAHN
Daniel Jahn, or sometimes unhappybirthday is the ideal companion for drifting bodiless into rainforests of sensitive depths. He is also a resident at our NTS colleagues and the driving force behind the Hamburg based indie label Bureau B, hiding under a dusty collection of unheard musics and jarring echoes without a trace. Caught into the sheer intensity of dark things we tell each other, Daniel strikes a balance between stasis and dislocation, tinting the environment with midnight melancholia, misty delirium and iridescent visions. His sets reveal exactly what his sonic theatre is about - a play of uncanny wonders and suspenseful oddities. A direct invitation to sinking into a placid shining dark listening reverie, stripped of edge and clarity.

Spinning around in a daze across splinters of crisp new beat, freaky acid breaks, or hard hitting electro explosions, Dazion packs all kinds of influences in his smoothly blended groove boxes. Ready anytime to transform your room into a fluid dancefloor, his weirdly rhythmic, sometimes emotional and relentless picks intertwine under a frisky cosmic soundscape. Rocking the club scene in high demand with his Dazion moniker, Cris Kuhlen counts many of his signature releases on renowned labels such as Safe Trip, Second Circle, and Animals Dancing.

• DEAN HIGH
Extraordinary and hypernormal; Dean High goes above, beyond and outside. The Serbian-Dutchman — who hosts the bi-monthly show ‘Hypernormal radio’ — employs an analytic ear in his productions and selections, in which he manages to strike a perfect balance between consistency and unpredictability. This all results in music that sucks the listeners in, bites their necks and touches them with cold fingers, leaving them in an auditory chokehold fashioned from heavy sub action, tight drum sounds and unexpected grooves. Said programmed rhythm sections are coloured in by unpredictable, cavernous and haunting tonal content which results in an experience which transcends the total sum of its parts.

• DEBOLEENA
Deboleena has a clear interest in rhythm, contrast, ratio, dynamics and harmony in both buildings and music. Her approach to her two main interests, music and architecture, can perhaps be explained from her upbringing in which she was exposed to many different sonic and architectural environments. She was raised across three continents while digesting Indian Classical, Jazz, and the golden era of Timbaland productions. These influences lead to picks with unexpected progressions, unpredictable structures and beautiful production and soundscapes. Bluntly put; ‘For the heads’.

Derozan leaves impressively few stones unturned. When he lifts a stone, the musical millipedes lurking beneath them scatter to seek shelter in his music library. The feeling felt by these startled insects is not unlike the delighted confusion created by Derozan on the dancefloor- a fabrication of wonder which is also present in his bi-monthly show, ‘Swallowtail town’. The main difference between his club sets and his radio appearances would be the introspective nature of his show — a quest through imaginative mangroves and along glimmering patches of moss to relieve the mind of the often overwhelming impermanence of the world outside of our imagination.

In her sets, discourse (moniker of Katayoun Arian) seeks to meditate on different sonic lineages and traditions by way of aural storytelling. In 2017, she initiated a musical archival project that focuses on female-identifying musicians and performers from 20th-century Iran. With shows titled ‘Female Vocalists from Iran and Beyond’, she has recontextualised music from Iran and beyond placing an emphasis on the question of what musical archives can do in rethinking our sonic culture. In doing so, she draws connections between different musical traditions, exploring ways in which archives, their meaning, and function can change by way of a different activation and rearrangement.

The bromance behind Duo Penossi is always seen together in their store on the Zeedijk. Their store, Platypus Records, is a walhalla for those looking for the perfect break, loop or record. It’s no wonder that famous beat smiths such as the Alchemist frequent their store. Their TNP show is always centered around a region’s music which they deliver with a uniquely nonchalant flair and are a testament to their broad and deep knowledge. The first reissue on their label Penossi Records, Werk in Uitvoering’s Dosis, contains all elements to their alchemy — novel, funny and allround great.

• ELISE KRAVETS
Elise Kravets’ sets can be described as levees during floods; a refuge which can be very comforting while being surrounded by a hectic and devastating stream. It’s mainly insatiable and curious minds that find comfort in Elise’s sets. However, her sets are exploratory, colorful and escapistic. Elise’s music practice can be linked to her lifelong fascination with pointillism — track per track, dot per dot, the image grows ever clearer. These warm, earthy and cinematic dots are not quite like the pictures she paints in club settings — although her atmospheric sensibilities translate to this setting she prefers hard-hitting 2-step beats of the jungle and d&b variety.

• FABIO FONTANELLI
Rarely seen wielding a USB, Fabio Fontanelli lets the processes which deposit records into record bins guide his DJ practice. As such, his DJ sets often included often-overlooked pearls. It is not only the auditory world that fascinates Fabio — it’s the bridge that connects it to the material world which is equally as important to him. This fascination also led to his mix cassette series — the VIAVIA tapes — after which he also named his show. VIAVIA was the name of a boogie project from his hometown Maastricht — a record which perfectly encapsulates the quirky European twists on familiar genres that often find their way into his projects.

Hi! I’m Steven Hickey (aka Father Hickey) and I live in Los Angeles. By day I work as a photographer and lighting director — by night I feed my YouTube account “Father Hickey’s Collection Plates” and build my record label, “Big Nice.”
When it comes to my musical selections (and overall direction for this show), my North Star is lightheartedness. I’m drawn to songs that are bouncy, distinguished, and filled with character. An ideal mix mirrors a fun conversation between friends — we cover a lot of ground, laugh, and let loose.

Historian and owner of Ilê Discos, Gustavo Keno uses musical (re)discoveries (mostly songs who are intertwined with the social and religious themes from the Afro-Brazilian universe and the African Diaspora) to decolonize the dance floor and raise awareness about the existence of musical productions that still remain completely forgotten.
Over the past six years, this commitment has been presented in various collectives, festivals and parties on the national and international scene, such as “Selvagem”, “Festival Gop Tun”, “Urbeck’s Festival”, “Planet Trip” (Australia) and “Rinse France”.
More than simply entertain, Keno also seeks to educate; resignify the term “Brasilidade” and encompass this whole range of artists, composers and producers, who were made invisible due to social determinisms still far from being deconstructed in Brazilian society. Like, for example, racism.
He is also responsible for the YouTube channel entitled “Juntos Com Certeza” where a large part of his research available is shared.

Curiosity is what straddles her artistic practice and sonic experiences. In the dungeon of her bi-monthly show, Helter Skelter, she moves in a non-linear manner around dubby rhythmic patterns and rich textured arrangements, and seeks to explore the darkest corners of electronic experimentalism. Guided by instinct, Loma is not afraid to operate with a surgical precision around psychedelic and hardcore punk, freak folk, ritualistic percussions and howls, and spellbinding drones. Stitching together radio and archives as her main media, her approach revolves around various notions of listening and how listening is a call to action. Apart from being a sonic surgeon, Femke is also an active artistic researcher, curator and educator of contemporary arts.

No stone is left unturned when Loradeniz is racing the airwaves. Centred around swirling breakbeats, seismic basslines, and disfigured industrial rhythms, her mixes collapse into an orchestrated chaos before gathering for three more minutes of dark ambiance with harmonious and witchy gated vocal bliss. Istanbul-born pianist, composer, and producer, Lora exports a stormy waltz of electro, postpunk, leftfield, dub, and many other experimental thrillings. In her radio series, The Ottoman Export, Loradeniz imports and exports a flux of eccentric talents with whom she sometimes chitchats, or ventures into vast sonic canons where borders between light and dark, past and future, hope and despair are blurred.
No stone is left unturned when Loradeniz is racing the airwaves. Centred around swirling breakbeats, seismic basslines, and disfigured industrial rhythms, her mixes collapse into an orchestrated chaos before gathering for three more minutes of dark ambiance with harmonious and witchy gated vocal bliss.

• MADBA
Madly involved in sonant incantations and holding many tricks in the bag, Madba creates boundless atmospheric works. A multi-layered artist from Caracas, she composes, produces, and writes in many formats. Camouflaging under dizzy rhythms of darkwave, murky ambient, trip hop and other experimental jams, Madba sets the tone for a slow nonchalant dance. Always on a hunt for the freshest releases, our versatile artist creates a parallel dimension in which the mundane meets the odd, post-cataclysm nostalgia with a humorous sense of amorphous sounds. Her dreams are not always breezy ambient, but rather distorted noises evoking the lost paradise, looping on unwanted prophecies, and revenging kindly the ridicule of sense.

• NORM
A sonic time-traveller and fantasy architect, Norm collects relics and puts them together in Faking Jazz Together. He builds up radiant and delicate worlds in which harmony and emotion prevail over anything else. Diffracted into multiple histories and genres, Norm’s music recreates an ambiance of hazy fusion jazz, hypnotizing psychedelic rock & pop, mellow bossa, and many other rhythmic boogies. Each show is a process of becoming for Norm — an opportunity to refresh and augment his inspiration which has been paved on a strong foundation represented by Connan Mockasin’s psychedelia. Once you tune in, you slip down in a mellifluous and vivid dream.

• SAAR & CLAAR
Saar & Claar share similarly sounding nicknames and similarly sounding music. Their journey starts in Milan, where they met in art school and bonded over a shared interest in music — a shared passion which only seems to have intensified over the subsequent 8 years. They blend sounds from genres like Belgian New Wave, IDM and New Age — walking the tightrope between listening music and dancing music. This philosophy was also present in the ‘chill out’ rooms in 90s clubs which have since disappeared. They revive and expand this chill-out culture, shaped by the likes of Mixmaster Morris and the KLF, with their bi-monthly show called ‘Chill-out Room’.

• SATOSHI YAMAMURA
Satoshi Yamamura who ran the music blog Okonkole Y Trompa, unearths hardly known and wonderfully bizarre pieces. Constantly packing and unpacking unfamiliar artists and dusty grooves nearly lost to the world, Satoshi’s collection is stored somewhere behind the portcullis of a fortified castle. Once it slides down, you are entrapped in an abstract sonic space as vast as the universe — an oasis of rare releases or a haunted translation of his inner monologue into mystical arrangements. Probably a genre-agnostic, Satoshi is not afraid to journey through the unknown and ecstatic realms of glacial new wave, ghostly synth-pop, fragile ambient, psychedelic jazz fusion, and many other punchy frequencies. His garden of unearthly rhythms is an entangled landscape: you won’t know how you got there, but it was worth it.

As busy as two bees, Camille Maria and Pietro Ferrari are in a constant mood for creation and growth. Creators of ambitious projects, the body-twisting duo is the sonic force behind Siena Ovest Worldwide and rulers of the Dusty Cabinets series. Camille and Pietro have been at it for 10 years and have successfully taken the western part of Siena, their hometown, to the world. Their ‘Dusty Cabinets’ events series hosts a diffusion of dub-related artists, such as Donna Leake and John T. Gast, whose woofer-wizardry undoubtedly disperses the dust from atop the cabinets into the air. The same dust-distributing-dub can be heard on their Radio TNP show.

• TEMBER
Tember’s tempestuous timbres, which he slings into the aether through his TNP-show ‘Unlikely Animal Friends’ and ‘Club Hits Differently’, can be referred to as postmodern. The visual language in the world of Tember is delightfully campy and drenched in irony. The combination of songs he reproduces could be classified as ‘random’ compared to (past) club standards. There is definite philosophy and method behind the madness, however; Tember’s approach is purposefully anti-elitist and deliberately unorthodox. Without friction, there’s no shine — without experimentation, there is no innovation.

A musician, working with creative communities and musicians from South and North America, Europe, Asia or Africa, synthesizing a primitive sounding with modern technologies. Every DJ set is an emotional and digital trip, from the warm and rhythmic shores of southern countries, to the coldest and most ruthless corners of Russian realities. Travelling across the world and collaborating with the artist from different cultures, synthesizing a primitive sounding with modern technologies, every time proves that religion and politics, borders and different nationalities cannot stand in the way of the truth. And the truth is the same — we are all from the Earth.
