On May 2nd we’re welcoming back the biggest sorcerer of sorcerers, Orpheu The Wizard. As a true warlock of the Amsterdam underground, Orpheu brews a mix of genres and bpms, effortlessly as ever. For this residency night, he’ll be transforming our basement into his sanctum of auditory spells accompanied by Doka family member F. Font. His hypnotic grooves will provide the perfect grounding force against Orpheu’s unpredictable curveballs. Prepare to be spellbound! Info & Tickets via link in bio.

- treating us monthly on nts with his oddball finds, @orpheuthewizard has a magic touch for digging. Whether it’s his broadcasts of curious, spaced-out cuts or driving dancefloors to a peak with raw house bangers, he keeps plenty up his sleeve. the real wizardry comes into play when he weaves these worlds together into one warm, immersive whole. When he’s not in the booth, he curates music programmes across some of the netherlands’ finest art and cultural institutions. it’s all part of his never-ending music knowledge and love for past and future-forward sounds. gather with the homies on sunday, tickets via link in bio 🌱

IDA & Carousel Selections present! Orpheu The Wizard (Wake Dream, NTS Radio / Amsterdam) at the place called Bar IDA! DJ, radio host, booker, digger, compiler, divine scene connector: for more than two decades Amsterdam’s Orpheu The Wizard has been a beloved member of the vibrant, all kinds of music-loving scene of his hometown & far beyond. As a DJ he is known for unconventional jams, that unite different styles under one slamming atmosphere that can be speedy or slow — depending on daytime & setting. Orpheu has released two albums + a three tracker 12” by Tallinn–Amsterdam based Ruutu Poiss under his top grade label Wake Dream, among other spectactular “diagonal music for between the vertical and the horizontal.” We're more than happy to see these two together on the freshly renovated dancefloor & behind the booth at Bar IDA. Warm–up duties for the night rely upon Ats. This is the plan on February, Friday the 13-th: ORPHEU THE WIZARD RUUTU POISS ATS IDA thanks Carousel! Carousel Selections is a boutique agency operating in Estonia, born out of the power of friendship & alternative culture, focusing on importing craft beers, wines & experiences.

> Today, Monday 24/11 at 4 p.m on @radioalhara 🔮 : @orpheuthewizard moves through a realm suspended between concrete and moss, where rusted fire escapes chime like wind bells and forgotten records hum with dormant spirits. Shaped by the open-windowed chaos of Amsterdam, a city where stone, water, and sky collide in restless dialogue, His sound is a portal to a world perched on the trembling boundary between the organic and the urban, mirroring the city's raw, ever-shifting architecture while channeling his own timeless, cosmic stillness. Yet for all his singularity, he is no hermit-wizard. His magic flows through others, nourished by the community around him. Orpheu stands as one of Amsterdam’s vital pillars: a connector, a cultural catalyst, a gardener of scenes. His mission extends far beyond his own spellcraft, to carve space for voices yet unheard, to create platforms where others may shine. This devotion took shape in the founding of Red Light Radio, a beacon that redefined the city’s underground mythology, and later in his stewardship of Het HEM , @oudekerkamsterdam and @nestruimte musical curation, where he nurtured a thriving ecosystem of artists, ideas, and sonic constellations. He has also been a vital part of the @dkmntl and @rushhourmusic families, further amplifying his impact on Amsterdam's and the world's underground music landscape through music and graphic design. While so many are drawn toward narrow specialization, his work as a curator celebrates eclecticism and interdisciplinarity, connecting music, performance, and art into a single, living experience that defies boundaries and expectation. I had the honor of inviting Orpheu back in 2023 for our second Pleasuredome (now @your_calling__ ) party in Paris, and later sharing the stage with him for @eternalsunfestival in September.. These experiences revealed not only his extraordinary artistry, but the generous, humble soul through which it flows. I’m grateful to have him in this special show, and equally delighted to unveil a new visual identity crafted by @_ines_bk which captures the essence of the show and extends its thread toward each guest 🌱💜 YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS!

The next after party is at our home away from home, the Love Inn. As a key figure in Amsterdam’s vibrant music scene, and founder of the legendary Red Light Radio, Orpheu The Wizard is a true digger and divine scene connector. His sets are famous for their unconventionality, seamlessly uniting wildly different styles from psychedelic electronic and ambient trance to new wave house and heavy techno. Whether he’s moving fast or slow, Orpheu has a magical touch for creating a genre-bending atmosphere. We can’t wait to welcome him to the bill. On support duties is Bristol’s own Dave Harvey. More than just a local legend, Dave is a pillar of the scene with a career spanning decades and a critical ear for multi-genre music that makes you move. Expect an expert blend of many things from one of Bristol’s finest. Tickets on headfirst now.
