Widely credited with shaping the progressive house genre, he first rose to international prominence in the 1990s through seminal mix albums like Renaissance: The Mix Collection and the Northern Exposure series with John Digweed. In 2000, he was voted the world’s No.1 DJ by DJ Mag. Known for emotionally resonant, genre-blending sets, Sasha has headlined festivals like Glastonbury, Coachella, and Creamfields, and held iconic residencies at Twilo, Space Ibiza, and Fabric. His acclaimed Involver series redefined the boundaries between DJing and production, while studio albums like Airdrawndagger, Scene Delete, and LUZOSCURA showcased a cinematic, experimental edge. Sasha has long embraced technology, famously debuting his custom Maven controller and Ableton Live setup during his groundbreaking 2005 Essential Mix at Maida Vale—a set now seen as one of the most innovative in BBC Radio 1 history. He later brought this hybrid approach to live audiences with Refracted: Live orchestral shows at London’s Barbican. Through his label Last Night on Earth, Sasha continues to champion emerging talent and forward-thinking sounds. In 2022, he scored Genius: The Score for the immersive Da Vinci exhibition, further expanding his creative reach. He has also collaborated with FKA twigs on genre-blurring studio sessions, signalling a continued evolution into new artistic territory. From underground raves to immersive art and global tours, Sasha remains a restless innovator whose work continues to inspire artists and audiences worldwide. // Francesca Lombardo // Has cultivated a sound of her own, one that represents her multi-disciplinary musical background and transcends the dance floor via an emotional narrative of dreamy soundscapes, stirring melodies and hypnotic rhythms.
