Local Selection 268: deni_sova
The Local Selection returns after a few weeks off, with deni_sova of Nocturnal Animals kicking things off with a mix weaving over house, electro, disco, rave, and more, demonstrating the breadth of her sound palette in a seamless hour mix.
We welcome deni_sova to the Local Selection, the alias of DJ, producer, and co-founder of one of Dublin’s fast-rising techno collectives, Nocturnal Animals. Born in Siberia and now based in Ireland, Nastya has carved out her space in the country’s club culture. Since launching Nocturnal Animals with longtime collaborator Seboro in 2022, the pair have quickly built a loyal following, selling out shows and sharing lineups with the likes of Marcel Dettmann, Ben Klock, and Sama' Abdulhadi.
Her usual sets are comprised of high-octane, no-holds-barred techno, but on this occasion, she shifts gears...Inspired by the hazy euphoria of open-air parties and the collective spirit of festivals like Beyond the Pale, Electric Picnic, and IYKYK, she leans into something more fluid, a sonic aesthetic that stretches across deep house, disco, and electro.
“I wanted this mix to feel like a journey,” she says. “It’s a love letter to electronic music in all its forms—groovy, emotional, uplifting, but still with that edge I can’t let go of.”
