Few selectors navigate the space between deep studio craft and pure floor command quite like Yazmina. Driven by groove and defined by restraint, her sound moves fluidly through house, deep house, minimal, and techno, built for long nights, locked-in rooms, and total freedom of expression. In this edition of our SONIC Series, the DJ, producer, and resident delivers a masterclass in tension and balance. Crafted around structured track blocks and deep digging, it’s a session designed to pull you straight into the pocket and keep you there.
Yazmina’s connection to underground music is rooted in years of active exploration, both on the dance floor and behind the boards. That firsthand perspective fuels her work in the booth, where subtle shifts in energy take precedence over cheap tricks. Tracks released via heavyweights like Fabric Records, Circus Recordings, Hottrax, Nervous, Under No Illusion, and Glasgow Underground have cemented her production footprint, capped off by a spot on the limited-run Fabric Selects VI vinyl release.
"Merging sounds from entirely different sonic worlds is what gets me most excited. When it hits, it’s unexpected for the floor and deeply satisfying in the booth."
Preparation for a set like this starts long before stepping to the decks. Digging across Bandcamp, SoundCloud, Beatport, and Inflyte promos, Yazmina organizes her music into distinct thematic folders and functional blocks of four to six tracks. Using a strict star-rating system for energy, she builds fluid architecture that allows her to jump between modules and react to the room without ever losing momentum.
This recording captures that exact duality: the space where raw, filthy rhythm meets soulful, emotional resonance. The journey swings between heavy, infectious grooves that force a reaction and poignant vocal or melodic moments that hit on a deeper level. Amidst selections from Radio Slave, A for Alpha, Confidential Recipe, and Cybotron sits DJ Minx’s Blocked, a crucial weapon in Yazmina’s bag that demands immediate authority with its deep, undeniable punch. The set also highlights her own material, including Juno and the unreleased edge of Just Dance (featuring a vocal edit from Mr V).
That focus on authenticity, depth, and longevity has made Yazmina a key FLINTA voice within modern club culture. Across broadcasts for HÖR Berlin, Lunar Bass Sequences, Ibiza Sonica Radio, and her residency on Select Radio, her presence continues to expand. On the floor, she’s brought her sound to staples like Corsica Studios, Ministry of Sound, Fire, and Dalston Superstore, alongside securing a residency at Lost Village Festival.
