Music Podcast Interview Series

Podcast

EPM.195 comes from HannahLuyah. As a key ‘behind the scenes’ partner with both EPM and Cod3 QR plus AFEM (Association For Electronic Music) and ICNAC (The International Consulting Network for Arts and Culture), she has earned her DJ stripes from the old school, playing and spinning at parties across the US and Europe. This mix was exclusively performed at the COD3 QR label party in August 2025 and in her set at Maastricht’s Muziekgieterij, old-school classics meet more contemporary house, with an infusion of jazz and hip hop influences referencing her New York heritage. Featuring Berlioz, Laurence Guy & J. Peacock, Todd Terje, Barry Can't Swim, DJ Rolando, Pachanga Boys and more her DJ set is a patchwork of genres, loosely connected by a backbone of house. As Hannah says, “Let the music move you, soundtracking your holiday listening with its warmth and smooth (yet raw) textures."

HannahLuyah moves through the club like a storyteller, stitching bass-laden rhythms with glimmers of melody, glitch and groove. Her sets feel alive; shaped in real time, tuned to the pulse of the room, and held together by an instinctive sense of narrative. Growing up between New York’s eclectic sonic landscape and the warmth of her Brazilian heritage, she draws on a wide palette: house, techno, electro, breakbeat, hip hop, tropical influences and the alternative edges in between.

As a founder of event series Funk It!, she helps nurture a community-driven corner of the underground, from beach parties to no-phone raves across Barcelona, as well as select events in London, Tokyo, and beyond. Her creative work extends far beyond the booth: she is a digital strategist and communicator for labels, collectives, festivals and cultural organisations, shaping identities and telling stories that blend strategic clarity with artistic curiosity.

Whether behind the decks or working behind the scenes, HannahLuyah operates with the same intention: to connect. To lift a space. To find the threads that bind sound, culture and community, and weave them into something unforgettable.

EPM.195 is also available on Soundcloud, Mixcloud & will be available on Apple Music on 25 December!
