Dea

Cosmic disco · Psychedelic electronic · House

Aradea Barandana, known as Dea, is an Indonesian DJ and producer with a taste for cosmic disco, unusual records and psychedelic electronic music. He began DJing for a breakdance crew while still at school, then developed his musical approach through Jakarta parties and record digging in London. His sets connect disparate sounds through rhythm and atmosphere.

Solo records and collaborations

Dea's musical projects include Precious Bloom and Zatua, alongside releases under his own name. His connections span DJ Harvey, Ricardo Villalobos and A Mountain of One. Glazer Drum, his EP for Peggy Gou's Gudu Records, brings that exploratory approach into percussive, club-oriented productions.

Where to start

The Glazer Drum EP includes the title track, Zaria Sto Chaos and Mahfudzot, plus an I:Cube remix of Mahfudzot. Compare these with his longer mixes to hear the difference between his production work and record selection. Klymax's programme listed a dedicated Dea session on 28 March 2026.
