ctrl: Nastia 18+

Nastia is a Ukrainian DJ, promoter, producer and label owner, and a rare example of how great success can be achieved solely by DJing, ideas and hard work.

Throughout the years, Nastia's activities have been aimed at promoting Ukrainian culture and artists, which made her the face of the country’s electronic music scene on the global stage. She was a curator and resident of the legendary Kazantip festival, a radio host, and a resident at Moscow’s cult Arma17 club, before co-running her own parties and the long-standing Strichka festival and NECHTO raves. While getting serious about techno, Nastia created labels Propaganda Records and NECHTO. During the pandemic, she supported Ukrainian producers and DJs as the first resident of the Beatport Residency project and released two seasons of her self-authored projects on YouTube. In 2022, due to the war in Ukraine, she temporarily moved to Amsterdam and took an active role in supporting her country.  

In addition to her go-to genres house and techno, Nastia is a true fan of jungle and drum and bass music. She is currently the most active touring and popular DJ in the history of Ukraine, performing at key worldwide venues and taking active social and political positions.
