🪸 MEET THE ARTISTS 🪸
Nsasi (Hakuna Kulala / Anti-Mass / Nyege Nyege)
https://soundcloud.com/nsasi_ug
https://hakunakulala.bandcamp.com/album/coinage

“Nsasi’s complex polyrhythms on ‘Coinage’ are bound to untangle limbs the world over.” Boomkat
Nsasi is a fearless sound sculptor, core member of the Nyege Nyege collective, and a founding member of ANTI-MASS - Kampala's underground queer collective creating sonic resistance - alongside Authentically Plastic and Turkana. Known for their high-intensity DJ sets that blend hard drum, Singeli, gqom, electro, and experimental club textures, Nsasi creates relentless, addictive dancefloor pressure that often pushes 160 BPM and beyond. With fearless mixing and an unpredictable approach to rhythm, they turn every set into a live journey, navigating through radically different tempos and genres, from skittered acid to pulsating percussion.
Nsasi’s debut album Coinage (Hakuna Kulala, 2024) is a dynamic, industrial rasp that expertly meshes rhythms from across the musical spectrum into a coarse, dancefloor-ready frame. A rallying cry for outsiders and the queer community, the album mischievously perverts East African traditional sounds, considering their revolutionary potential within a new context. “Coinage” is a fluid, breathtaking record that peers into an uncertain future, balancing the chaotic energy of noise and industrial music with the precision of club forms.

mʊdʌki (phonon~)
https://soundcloud.com/mudaki
mʊdʌki’s story begins in Minsk and unfolds across Ústí nad Labem and Prague, where she’s become a trusted architect of deep listening events and collective phonon~ crew along with bass-driven nights.
Collaboration is a key element of her work – she often operates within artistic networks and independent spaces (offspaces), organizing projects independently and from the ground up. Her work expands the perception of both intimate and communal environments by engaging with invisible physical fields and existential questions.
In her djs sets, her sound rises from the pulse of rave history, shaped by jungle, dubstep, and tekno, yet always refracted through a personal lens that finds warmth in distortion and form in chaos. Through Radio Plato’s Broken News and the collective phonon~, she gives shape to a network of underground voices, balancing the immediacy of the dancefloor with the fragility of listening.

Anami (AVA, Sancti)
https://soundcloud.com/spiritusancti
Reach a higher state of consciousness through the sound. Become a sacred seeker. Let various ambient structures and hypnotic repetitive beats forget yourself. Find the sky above clouds of unstoppable thoughts and daily feelings.
Who are you? Who am I? Who is asking? 𝔰𝔭𝔦𝔯𝔦𝔱𝔲𝔰 𝔰𝔞𝔫𝔠𝔱𝔦
Anami is known for her unique approach, moving through various genres, tempos, and rhythms while maintaining an "underlying air of mystery" in her creations. Her sets incorporate records, tapes, digital files, and field recordings.

s.snurssla
https://soundcloud.com/ssnurssla
Snediggen Snurssla (he/his) shapes Brno's (non)club landscape as founder of AVA collective and Infame radio resident. Rooted in education and community building, his practice extends beyond performance into community cultivation—exploring sound as a somatic practice that crafts polyrhythmic, consciousness-shifting patterns functioning as psychoactive agents for decompression and collective restoration. Drawing from the traditions of the global south, fractal sound textures, and deep ambient territories, Snurssla's sets facilitate states of nervous system rewiring. His production process is intentionally tactile: cassette tape manipulation, field recordings, and sound interventions in space, merge into experiences that hold therapeutic potential and prioritize transformation over entertainment.
