Yoshitaca & Malin Evrenos @ Nest Karaköy

With all the summer action going on, and the wait & see ambiance we are all living through, local event producers are still working to create a viable atmosphere where everybody can enjoy themselves and share experiences within a community of like-minded people.

A thriving local music collective “Matinee Istanbul”, established in 2015 by Lilly and Sertac Kazan, is still going strong, inviting in foreign and local talents/friends to DJ and spin the nights away in various interesting locations.

“Sunday Matinee” is a weekly Project which takes place at Nest Karaköy, a wonderful rooftop bar next to the Bosphorus with superb views.

This Sunday August 7 at Nest, the full-on night event will feature unique underground DJ/producer from Tokyo, Yoshitaca and Swedish DJ and producer Malin Evrenos.

Yoshitaca is currently based in Berlin with a 10 year long career that put him on top of the Japanese electronic music scene and continuously playing electronic music gigs in international clubs like Watergate and many others.

Enriching his ears by listening to so many kinds of music and experiencing various dance floors with international artists, he began producing music and releasing quality tracks through famous labels such as Get Slow, Metroline Ltd., and Rabbit Hole Recordings. He later created his own label: Fasten Music. With all this rich background, and being from a country that is far away geographically from the center of the electronic scene, in addition to his passion for music, it all places him right where he belongs, in the middle of the international electronic music scene.

DJ and Producer Malin Evrenos, part of the duo Y+M, has an active role in Stockholm’s vibrant underground music scene. She has played at most of Sweden’s top venues, as well as festivals like Sónar, Cult Cosmic, Red Bull Music Academy Weekender and Way out West.

Selecting unique venues including well known clubs, underground warehouses, and hidden away forest clearings where she plays a selection of house and techno music to the eargasmic crowds. During the years, Malin has warmed the decks for a number of influential DJs and producers, like Blawan, Luke Slater, Shed, Erol Alkan and James Ruskin. Her techno sets are hypnotic, decisive and rhythmic, while her house sets are more playful, filled with punchy kick drums, energetic hi-hats and acidic leads.

Being invited again and again for the third time to be part of the eclectic Istanbul scene, she has left her mark and the crowds keep on coming back for more.

Welcoming great talents in Istanbul on the shores of the Bosphorous, this is an event not to be missed, dance the summer away alongside “Matinee Istanbul” with friends and good vibes…
