Guest DJ Airwave (SL).

This week's guest DJ is Airwave (SL), a rising talent from the vibrant city of Kandy, Sri Lanka. Since launching his journey into electronic music in 2020, Airwave has been steadily building a reputation for his immersive sets and refined production style, blending Progressive House, Melodic House, and Organic House.

His first major breakthrough came in June 2024 with the release of his debut EP on Café De Anatolia, a significant step that marked his arrival on the international stage. The EP introduced listeners to his signature sound, a rich, emotive style that combines layered melodies with hypnotic grooves and subtle rhythmic shifts, creating deeply resonant moments on the dancefloor.

Airwave’s sets are more than performances; they’re carefully curated musical journeys designed to transport audiences through an evolving emotional sound. By weaving together atmospheric elements, driving percussion, and melodic flourishes, he crafts experiences that linger well beyond the final track.

Each appearance is a testament to his devotion to sonic storytelling and his ongoing exploration of electronic music’s emotional depth. Beyond the decks and studio, Airwave is also known for his work within the local creative community in Sri Lanka.

He collaborates with fellow artists, supports emerging talent, and actively contributes to the growth of the electronic music scene in the region. His inclusive and forward-thinking approach to music has quickly earned him a place among a new wave of South Asian artists making their mark globally. As his career continues to gain momentum, Airwave (SL) remains committed to innovation and authenticity, promising plenty more to come from this exciting new voice in the world of electronic music.

Hypnotised opens this week’s set with an atmospheric flow built on carefully selected Progressive House tracks. From the remix of “Enjoy” by Doriaan, Diego Hernan & Milton Bo to Lana Del Rey’s “Summertime Sadness” reimagined by Hot Since 82, the mood shifts between uplifting melodic hooks and deeper rhythmic textures. Tracks by Univ3rse and Gaspar Aguilera reinforce the driving momentum, while the final selections close with a hypnotic and meditative tone.

Airwave takes over in the second hour, blending Progressive and Organic House seamlessly. His set opens with a Francisco edit of RÜFÜS DU SOL’s “Innerbloom,” setting a lush and emotive tone. He continues to build a reflective soundscape with tracks from Jadon Fonka, Kamilo Sanclemente, HAFT, and more, showcasing a deep understanding of structure and progression. Warm basslines and intricate percussion lead the way as each transition unveils another layer.

Organic touches are threaded throughout, with selections like “Self Thoughts” and “Koomi” inviting introspective moments amidst the groove. Remixes by HAFT and Bruno Andrada offer subtle reinterpretations that feel both elegant and grounded. The vibe remains fluid, echoing the essence of both deep club moments and home-listening comfort.

This episode is an ideal listen for fans of Progressive and Organic House seeking something melodic, meaningful, and rhythmically rich. With top-tier selections and masterful pacing, it’s a compelling entry into the After Hours archive.
