Frinda di Lanco
Sandra Stein, alias Frinda di Lanco goes about her craft like a summer wind: Sometimes quiet with glimpses of blissful days at the shore. Other times as a refreshing breeze pushing away clouds and pulling at your limbs to get you moving, and in some cases, just raising the roof to a point where the shingles go flying.
These cosmically imbued gusts carried her name onto many line-ups alongside the grounds of the scene and to venues beloved: sharing the decks with names like Beppe Loda, Budino and Johannes Albert and casting aside the drapes of every day at Primavera Sound, Fusion Festival, Berlin's infamous "Cocktail d'Amore "party, the "Warning "instalments at about blank and places as far as Krakow, Sofia, Beijing and Tokyo.
She carefully selected sets gathered from backyards, basements, and record store backrooms from Lisbon to Beijing and Oslo to Palermo. Wherever she and her partner in life, crime and business are carried, they take you on a wild trip that brings everyone on the dancefloor.
Besides stirring up crowds, her love for music and vinyl can be seen and heard – and bought – all over Germany's capital and the aether of the world wide web. She hosts a well-curated radio show named "Music From Mullets "with guest appearances by Donna Leake, CV Vision, Arsenii Tikhonenko. Additionally, beloved outlets such as Amsterdam's Bordello Radio, Hysteric's Mothball FM, Mr Bongo Record Club, Refuge Worldwide and Berlin's experimental Cashmere Radio carried Frinda's explorations into music apart from the dance floor out to the world.
Her party series "Ciao Amore Baci ", dedicated to vibrant Italian disco gems and featuring renowned and upcoming local DJs, has become a welcome alternative for the disco-orientated Berlin nightlife longing to move to sounds apart from the beaten track.
On top of that, Frinda di Lanco and her partner Hendrik Stein founded their record label/store "Avec Plaisir ". They have been selling and releasing hand-picked rarities since 2020. The couple works with the likes of cosmic legend DJ Stefan Egger and digging private press record releases from the 1970s to the 90s.
