MASSIEF
We are a community based event, driven by a passion and connection to Bass Freak-wincy and Breakbeat Culture. MASSIEF strives to provide a platform for Artists, Deejays and Creatives to explore their sound and make their own contribution to Breakbeat and Underground Bass Music culture. Over the past couple of years, our concept has been hosted on Echobox.radio and a string of venues around Amsterdam, most notably; Noordspace, De Hintergarten and Bar Dancing Multipla, where MASSIEF has showcased a range of local artists, who encompass Bass and Breakbeat Culture in their own unique way.

INA
Growing up in Berlin, INA was drawn to music and nightlife from a young age – but it was years of living in Sheffield and Manchester that ignited her love for bass music and UK sounds. As a DJ, she’s paved her way from playing underground parties in Amsterdam to stepping into the booth at festivals like Wildeburg (NL) and Sounds From The Other City (UK), as well as club nights in London, Paris and Barcelona. With over a decade of radio experience, INA is a resident and programmer at Amsterdam’s Radio Radio FM and holds a residency at Manchester’s Reform Radio. In 2025, INA developed and taught the first-ever RRFM Academy Beginners DJ course – creating a safe space for 12 women to learn to DJ and kickstart their own music careers. As a vocalist, INA has contributed to Hidden Sphere’s ‘Tanzen’ release on Rhythm Section International (2023), Harvey Coutoure’s ‘Les Portes De La Perception’ (Leng Records) and the following LP ‘Scellé En Cristal’. She also featured on Approach Release’s latest Drum Chums EP on the Talking Drums imprint (Manchester, UK).

LNR
LNR (she/they) is a UK-born, Amsterdam-based DJ and writer. Inspired by a collective dialogue between their journalistic research surrounding dance music history and obsession with collecting old school vinyl, LNR translates pen to wax by creating journeys centred around fluid iterations of sound system culture. Their sound channels refractions of music along the hardcore and psychedelic spectrums, integrating technological rawness with dissociative coils. LNR sculpts journeys of twisted and unsettling energy, excavating obscure records across tekno, jungle, drum n bass, trance, acid, dub and beyond. Their expansive knowledge of this musical lineage connects the dots between past and present - maintaining subcultural integrity whilst injecting a contemporary rhythmic form. LNR plays in the shadows, frequenting at Amsterdam’s Garage Noord, and free party collective V23 in
Belgium. From the darkest crevices of free parties held on industrial sites, to the beating pulse of club dance floors like Horst Club, Raum, Ormside Projects, and Strange Brew, LNR is firmly rooted in the rave, and the club. They have performed alongside 90s legends such as Spiral Tribe’s 69db, Eat Static, Patrick Russell, Felix K, μ-Ziq, and Scion, as well as contemporary mavericks Objekt, Woody92, Konduku, and Wata Igarashi. They are the author of Biodegradable Soundsystem, a series of essays, features, and interviews navigating microclimates of old school dance music culture within the sphere of free parties, raves, club culture, and experimental sonics.

Gemma Maree
From the bass-heavy landscapes of Aotearoa to the underground booths of Amsterdam, Gemma Maree is a navigator of the deep. Her sound bridges the gap between deep dubs and forward-thinking bass music. Together weighted dubs and intricate bass lines that demand to be felt as much as heard. Unbound by rigid genres, Gemma allows her energy, intermixed with the reciprocal space to dictate the pace, creating a curious environment where thought-provoking melodies meet the primal force of the sub-woofer. Most recently, with Son of Sesh she is co-curating MASSIEF, our community focused on bass driven subculture. She has leant into the sub-heavy, listening space dubs at Club RAUM for Interfering Grounds, as well as channeling the dub techno grit of Garage Noord, for the collective; Peel, Gemma’s selections remain collective and specific to the mood and subculture at the forefront of the night.

Déandrah (VJ)
The visuals that Déandrah presents are an investigation of the subconscious and the unconscious derived from fiction and real world matters. This revelatory ethos comes from how sound and vision are integrated through media, both mainstream and not, in order to manipulate the emotions and the perceptions of the viewer. Déandrah exhibits their creativity by amalgamating images, concepts of initiation, the banal with the strange, the obvious with the obscure, to seek new avenues of exploration and to short-circuit the training the brain has already had to be accepting without thought. Their aim is to parody all that was, is and will be right and wrong with the world, respective to the individual's morality. A mix of pop culture indoctrination, pain and suffering, hopes and dreams, fierce confrontations and wide-open confessional blurs to expose to the viewer as they feel bewitched and vulnerable at their core.
