Now five years down the line, Mala Junta has added three more residents to the roster D.Dan(Ted), Why Be (Tobias) and Yazzus(Yasmine). Tied together by a fuck-it-up attitude and high-octane, fast, nu-old school vibe, the collective unequivocally evoke a sense of liberation and ecstasy with their sound, tapping into the roots of rave culture to present authentic opportunities for ritualistic dance sessions and united Queer expression. Words and Interview by Charlotte Hingley & Magdalena RoeĪ collective that uniquely encompasses many different cultural influences with its sound is Mala Junta, the Berlin based collective that smashes through any preconceived notions of what to expect as they seamlessly deliver something fresh yet iconic with every set. Since its first 2013 edition in Amsterdam, Dekmantel has defied convention to pioneer a multitude of rhythmic expressions across the many fringes of music from emerging artists to world-renowned DJ’s, the festival prides itself on its genuine passion for showcasing cutting-edge dance music from around the globe. What makes this festival particularly captivating is the striking juxtaposition between the peaceful natural setting and the electronic, technical element of sound that transpires amongst the beating heart of the forest. This summer, Dekmantel opened its gates for the 9th time, allowing thousands of dedicated ravers from across the world to dance, connect and let go amongst the tranquil, serene setting of Amsterdam Bos.
