Freak Flag | Malzof B2B e-v @ The W Philadelphia | 2025-06-21

Recorded live at The W Philadelphia WET Bar on June 21, 2025 from 11PM-1AM as part of the FEMME HOUSE + W Philadelphia Take a Stance event series featuring Freak Flag x WKDU 91.7FM. Malzof: As a long-time events & community organizer, Malzof is also well-known for their public art, projection art/installations and musical output. Sweet Abyss resident Malzof has been DJing for a decade, playing their own signature style of transgender dance music. As a life-long music collector, their sound archives go deep. Heavily influenced by IDM, Ambient, experimental music, breaks, sampling, and dance music of all kinds, they are not afraid to make it blend. They see DJing as an extension of all the work they do- to bring people together, to encourage moments of release and joy, and to support people in showing up in their true expressions as resistance against hegemony. You may have heard Malzof play a freaky downtempo set at last year's Sploosh alongside Yessi, or perhaps somewhere across the region - from just about everywhere in Pittsburgh to Philly, NYC, Ithaca, Rochester, Montreal, Detroit or on your radio waves across the world. Malzof brings their creative vision and multimedia art practice into the ways they share sound. e-v: e-v is excited to be back on the airwaves and get more involved in Philly, having their roots in college radio starting in 2014 at WRCT 88.3FM, and briefly at WKDU in 2019. They got their start in Pittsburgh’s dance music scene as a founding member of the former Hot Mass/In The Weeds collective @gfx-pgh. Genre-agnostic, they’re a lover of straight-forward dance music with a twist: punk rock slop, laptop pop, acid nonstop, tunes with a drop, and f-a-cop hip-hop.
