本週五宀歡迎來自瑞典電幻風格DJ/製作人Sansibar,在荷蘭廠牌 Kalahari Oyster Cult的製作被受注目,這位定位明確音樂人的遊走於各類的音樂,Electro、Techno、House、Liquid jungle 消化融會,電幻而狂野。旋律化的高壓電子音樂為主調,把聽眾帶進太空日月的世界,遠離塵囂。現時他在夜店Kaiku和Post Bar 長駐,另在電台 IDA和EOS主持。是夜由Faxtory 暖場,與Sansibar同台演出,千萬不要錯過這次令人情緒高漲之夜。

This Friday 宀 welcomes Finnish DJ, cosmic traveller and colourful producer Sansibar. With releases on the famed Kalahari Oyster Cult label from Amsterdam, Sansibar has established himself as a serious artist to watch with his floor-focused, genre-bending tracks that merge electro, techno, house and liquid jungle together into a delightful frenzy. Melodic, euphoric and gravity-defying in nature, Sansibar’s sonic world draws us into the realm of space and light. He holds residencies at Kaiku and Post Bar, as well as radio shows on IDA and EOS. Supported by our resident Faxtory, this will be an uplifting and bouncy night. Come ready to be transported into another world.

Sansibar
Hailing from Helsinki, Finland, Sansibar is a non-pareil cosmic traveller -also producer, resident DJ at Kaiku and Post Bar and wave agitator on IDA Radio and EOS Radio -whose genre-unbound sound credentials for the likes of Kalahari Oyster Cult, Natural Sciences, Émotsiya, Darknet, Avoidance et al. have helped establish as one of today’s most intriguing talents in the European scene. From floor-focused wares bridging a skull-busting mix of electro, techno, house, liquid jungle, new beat to further downtempo sound expanses and vaster lucid visions soaked in thick shrouds of daze and euphoria, Sansibar’s sound realm is an unpigeonholeable multiverse of textures and rhythms bound to whelm you in with gravity-defying power of submersion. Multiplying strains and angles of approach, the Finnish producer's music harnesses hi-impact programming and psychoactive flights, spacious divagations and oblique riff fractals, drum-charged salvos and ample weatherbeaten tapestries. Sansibar second long-player for Kalahari Oyster Cult, “Sans Galore”, definitely attests to that hot hand he has for carving out intricate, transcendental hardware gems

Faxtory
After spending time in New York, Justin (Faxtory) became fascinated with the city’s underground techno scene from regularly attending parties where legendary local DJs would play (eg. Frankie Bones, Damon Wild, Adam X).

Born and raised in Hong Kong, Justin aims to bring his vision for music, influenced by artists from around the world, back to his roots. Expect an eclectic mix of tracks and polyrhythmic beats brought together by groovy footwork that you might hear at an industrial warehouse in Brooklyn, or a basement in Queens.
