Mother Dance Open Air: Dave Nunes, NASH, AminJaz & More

Dave Nunes is a Dutch DJ and producer known for blending global club sounds with a pop-minded sensibility. His sound fuses Afro, Caribbean and Latin influences with electronic foundations, leaning into house and other club-driven genres. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, he balances authenticity and accessibility, bringing a distinct energy that never feels generic.

He first gained recognition on SoundCloud through his widely supported Diaspora edit packs, earning early co-signs from artists such as Diplo, Sarz, FS Green and Jyoty. Since then, he’s evolved into a sharp collaborator, co-producing for artists like Sevdaliza (“Ride or Die Pt 2”), Sarz & Asake (“C’mon Look”), Shimza and Skrillex. His recent track “Ganga Riddim” with Jarreau Vandal became a viral hit, reaching #3 on Nigeria’s Spotify Viral 50.

As a DJ, Dave has brought his high-energy sets to major festivals like Lowlands and Down The Rabbit Hole. He’s also featured on Rinse FM and appeared as a guest on BBC 1Xtra’s Tiffany Calver show.

With a growing track record and unique sonic identity, Dave Nunes is carving out his own lane by bridging continents, sounds and audiences with every release and performance.

Delhi-based DJ and selector NASH is more than a DJ, he is a connector. His sound moves fluidly through hip-hop, UKG, bass, leftfield and dembow. His sets are groove-led, emotional and built for the dance floor. With an effortless presence behind the decks, NASH creates spaces where people feel free to move.

From Indian festivals like Jazz Weekender and Magnetic Fields to the Boiler Room India tour, his performances carry the same energy: community first.

NASH has played across Ireland, Australia and the UK, including Celtronic Festival, Pitch Festival and Dialled In. Along the way, he has shared lineups with artists like Hamdi, Ahadadream, Saliah, Jyoty and Benjamin Damage, steadily building a global presence while staying rooted in the underground.

Outside of music, he works closely with brands like Fred Perry, Adidas, Bally and Armani Exchange, sitting naturally at the intersection of music and culture.

He is also the founder of Mother Dance, a community-driven party that has travelled across Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chandigarh. It is not just a party, it is a space for people to come together through music, movement and shared energy. With an open-format approach to sound and elements like dancers, record stores and pop-ups, each night is about creating something collective.

AminJaz is a Mumbai-based DJ whose journey behind the decks began at the age of 16. Since starting out in 2015, he has gone on to perform across clubs, events and festival stages around the country, steadily building a distinct identity within India’s electronic music scene.

His sound is rooted in groovy house, shaped by rhythm, energy and an instinctive understanding of the dance floor. Moving fluidly across different shades of house, his sets are defined by strong flow, infectious grooves and a focus on creating an atmosphere that keeps audiences moving.

A decade of performing across a wide range of rooms and crowds has shaped AminJaz into a versatile DJ with a clear musical direction and an increasingly refined approach to his craft.

Beyond the decks, he is also the host of Untriggered, a podcast that has built a community of its own and extended his presence beyond the world of music.

PAVNII is a selector and DJ shaping a percussive sound across global club music. Her sets draw from house, gqom, polyrhythmic percussion and UK underground influences.

She gravitates towards less obvious, sometimes weirdly witty selections, moving between these sounds with a strong sense of rhythm and curiosity.

Her sound has moved beyond her early Afro House beginnings, retaining subtle Afro diasporic influences while developing a distinctly leftfield sensibility.
