Description
I’m writing this up as another edition of Dekmantel Festival comes to a close and it could not be more fitting. I first saw Kampire play at Dekmantel last year after serendipitously coming across her set at the Greenhouse stage. It ended up being one of our favourite sets of the weekend - the energy in the Greenhouse was electrifying throughout as she brought the sound of Kampala and beyond to the Amsterdamse Bos in her signature party-starting style - it was the perfect setting.
Part of the Nyege Nyege collective which was founded in Kampala in 2015 - which is known for being the party capital of East Africa - Kampire was initially asked to help out her friends with the planning around the festival before the suggestion came for her to DJ at these events too. One of the first multi-day festival’s with camping and 24-hour music to take place in East Africa, Nyege Nyege’s distinctive percussive, bass-heavy and often fast-paced style of music (ranging up to 180 - 200bpm) and selection of world-class artists and DJs have garnered a global following, leading to Kampire’s touring schedule to include Red Bull Music Festival in NYC, Boiler Room, REEF Berghain, Body Movements Festival, Bass Coast Festival as well as international Nyege Nyege events in the likes of Amsterdam and Paris. Kampire also hosts a monthly radio show on NTS where she spotlights East African club music and is working on creating safer spaces for women and LGBTQIA+ people as well as teaching women to DJ. Organising some of these events in Kampala which fall outside of the Nyege Nyege brand can be more dangerous with the party unable to be labeled as a queer event and is sometimes necessary to have different levels of security depending on the party.
However, this isn’t stopping from Kampire’s mission of bringing the sounds of East Africa across the world and hoping to open doors for more African artists to come through with her. Kampire will hopefully be heading to Colombia for the first time this month where there’s a big connection between Colombia and East/Central Africa.
Speaking about the 909 mix, Kampire says, “I definitely over thought this one and made multiple attempts and missed several deadlines but here it is! The usual ungovernable blend of genres and cultures, but hopefully one that reflects my growth as a DJ these past few years. I’m so, so grateful that I get to travel and play at such diverse venues and parties, as it has really broadened my palate and pushed me to explore the boundaries of what I'm capable of. As difficult as I find doing them, I do enjoy creating mixes, which give me more space for interesting sounds and silences, and risks I wouldn’t necessarily take while mixing live on the dancefloor, so thanks for the opportunity and thanks as always to the producers who make this gorgeous music. I hope you like it”
It’s definitely bringing me back to that special moment at Dekmantel in 2022, losing my mind on the dance floor with a huge group of friends who were all so happy to have stumbled into that stage at the right time to witness the powerful energy of Kampire.
