• AAN ZEE
With longing for a pataphysical land where dunes are petrified and shells are sucked into the porous stone, AAN ZEE promises to take you on a boat shattered by the thunderbolt of his own dungeon cult. It flashes and expands into the cold, afar from the heat, measuring the distance from his crypt to yours in dungeon-sofa-synth, creep wave, subliminal drones, clinical metal, alternative noisy folk and just the most deliriously unthinkable spontaneous stories. Hard to place it anywhere but in his own DUNGEON RENDEZVOUS, AAN ZEE’s musical choices don’t promise you’ll make it home clean or ever again. And mindless of unpaved streets, unidentified crashes or traces of gasoline, it’s a sign you must follow.

• ANDY NORSTROM
Rambling around open fields of freshly cut grass, Andy Norstrom moves from this side to the other as close as meeting Britain’s Got Talent winner of 2008 and as far as hearing through the depths of psychedelic and deviant folk worlds that hide nothing but incantations, beasts and spectres. Discreetly connecting the dots between freak folk, ghost stories, funeral dirges, protest songs, choral chants and pastoral music, Andy puts together an impossible-to-track-down speculative playbook for astral realities. Although he doesn’t always remember the places where he rambles on earth, Andy knows no memory limits when it comes to his astral ramblings into the outsider mythical planes. And if you listen with your body, there’s a chance you may meet him somewhere there.

• 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 eccentricities.

• BLÖD HEINIE
Blöd Heinie knaks from the way, skidding against the guardrail and creating sparks by doing so. As a member of band and art collective LOSDQ and a prolific chaos-instigator on his own accord in both Amsterdam and Maastricht, his show is best described as reaching the edges of the naive through blind optimism and joyful fearlessness, not afraid to be the fool. Raising the corner of the mouth as well as the eyebrow and turning some heads. So if you don't know what to think of it, you are heading in the right direction. ‘It doesn’t matter if you fly out of the bend if you’re already offroad’.

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.

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’.

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.

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.

With a penchant for crossing boundaries and an ear for the offbeat, Hady’s sets gather both rare finds and unconventional influences. As co-founder of Order Mothership collective, Hady’s approach reflects a deep curiosity for all things sound, now expanding into DIY projects like turntable design and speaker building. No genre is safe… and neither are your expectations.

• HANNA
With a deep reverence for music that holds spirit, Hanna blends genres like jazz, soul, and psychedelia to craft vibrant, immersive sets. Drawing inspiration from the myth of Baba Yaga, the 'wild woman of the woods' in Slavic folklore, her work celebrates qualities traditionally associated with the feminine — wisdom, nurture, sensuality— while transcending gender altogether. Through sound, Hanna ventures into the mystic and untamed, viewing music as an immaterial force that opens us to new dimensions. In Baba Yaga listeners are warmly invited to explore their primal forces within. You might leave with more questions than answers, but that’s the fun of it.

• IVANA DJUKIC
Ivana Đukić’s morning show ‘Morning Star’ shines brightly and as colourfully as the flowers she’s obsessed with. By combining world music, classical, jazz, funk, folk, religious music and recorded sounds Ivana creates a colourful crochet plaid to snooze under, while she whispers some nuggets of wisdom, culture and poetry in your ears. To quote Goethe: “Every day one should at least hear one little song, read one good poem, see one fine painting and -- if at all possible -- speak a few sensible words.” - As a visual artist and graphic designer, she can (and does!) supply all of these.

• JAEZAE
Edit-smith and bringer of soul from Seoul, Jaezae (also known as Tucan Discos) is one of those DJ’s that takes you on a musical expedition. His style focuses around hard and groovy bass sounds from the 80s and 90s without ever veering into the doom-driven, instead colouring his mixes with elements from the rich musical traditions found across the globe. This Tucan is unlike the rest of his species a migratory specimen - and very much appreciated worldwide for his positive demeanor and friendly attitude. His show name, ‘Imaginary Friends’, should be taken with a grain of salt - as it seems like he has no need to imagine them.

Joss & Flo Selecting are selectors in the original meaning of the word. The word derives from the member of the Jamaican soundsystem who chose the riddims on which the DJ spat lyrics. Within the realm of the original ‘selectors’ they operate, playing various styles of reggae — dub, lover’s rock, roots and rocksteady. While their preferred riddims are as strong and steady as rock, their favorite lyrics can be uplifting, sweet and positive. The riddims and vocals are the vehicle — the goal is good vibes and love.

KAT’s morning show ‘soft-boiled’ is creamy and gooey but never snot-like in consistency. Slowly starting every show while talking about dreams, it is hard not to parasocially fall for her chaotically chill charm, wit and track selection. As a Brit and a writer, it’s hard to beat her on-the-spot eloquence, making her perfect for slow, talkative radio. Having lived in Amsterdam for the last 8 years and having made radio for the better part of that time, she currently holds three residencies at radios across the city, of which she enjoys our radio the most (we hope, KAT can neither confirm nor deny this statement).

Not only an emblematic radio veteran, but also a pioneering digger, Loma Doom traverses aural dimensions and picks arcane formulas for her sonic treatments. 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.

Montana is a coastal dweller from Western Australia and a dignified digger well-versed in any music curious, engaging and unwinding, fluctuating between many eras and styles. 80s synth pop, old school House, folk, AOR, ambient and trip hop all have a spot in their shows, often with a Balearic tinge, all combined tastefully (as a full-time pastry chef, she clearly has mastered the art of layering). With her show on TNP, “Desired paths”, she creates long, winding journeys to bask in and get moved by - meant for basking in the sun and moving around by car or train. These two hour microcosms leave the listener wanting more - just like her pastries (probably, we haven’t been to Perth to try them).

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.

She collects and keeps, she cuts and blends, an all kinds explorer and sound archeologist, Laura OdL entrenches herself in assemblages of abstracted realities with field recordings, analogue tape machines, and other DIY instruments. To all that’s rarefied and clandestine, Laura opens a window into the unexposed craft of artists and collectives and frames their compositions in a playful and bizarre collage steering. When she’s not a noise receptor, she’s a groove effector on dancefloors. Outside the field, inside the booth, Laura becomes Ondula and her sonic patches become even more experimentally intricate, this time swirling under disco balls of Sameheads, Braille Satellite, Polyhymnia, and more. But no matter where she is, always when en route, she takes out and brings about peculiar cut-ups and arrangements which can only enlarge and echo her trimonthly Animal Circle.

This philosophy was also present in the ‘chill out’ rooms in 90s clubs which have since disappeared.

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.

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.
