Ariane v - PLAYGROUND

London-based Ariane V is a selector hitting her stride. Over recent years she’s bolstered a reputation for igniting dancefloors, and with it her sound has become ever more assured.

Whether dialing it up at peak-time with breaks and acid cuts, or locking in for a heads-down ride, Ariane’s selections are rooted in a deep sense of groove.

She’ll pull for emotive house cuts that give way to trippy techno, punctuating things with driving prog, leftfield disco, glistening italo and big piano moments. It’s all laid down with a joyful appreciation of and profound connection to the music.
