10 years curating and DJing at Helsinki Coffee Festival 🎶 🪩 (PART 1)
I have been part of Northern Europe’s biggest coffee festival since day one in 2015, and from a music perspective, it has grown into something far, far beyond just background notes at a typical exhibition.
As resident DJ and Head of Music Programming, I have had the opportunity to really shape the sound and atmosphere of the event 👉 curating line-ups, building moods and manifesting uplifting moments while people enjoy incredible variety of coffee and tea flavours ☕✨
I feel truly honoured to have shared this journey with so many amazing DJs over the years. This also marks my 10th time playing at the festival, which feels pretty special. The back-to-back sessions with some of my favourite Finnish DJs have been a real highlight too, like the one with Paleface / DJ Daddy Pales where we found a perfect match together blending acid jazz, downtempo and Balearic sounds ❤️🔥
As a sign of respect to these great selectors, I’m sharing this first post featuring some of the artists who have contributed to create the unique atmosphere at Kaapelitehdas with their music selections throughout the past decade.
Welcome to experience the vibe of Helsinki Coffee Festival this weekend 💛
Big love to everyone who has been part of this ride 🫶👇
