Joining RARE, she now has gained experience playing regularly in one of Glasgow's finest club spaces La Cheetah, as well as a recent slot in Berkeley Suite for Polka Dot Disco Club.

On Day 2 I spoke to DJ and Producer Nightwave. 

Originally from Slovenia, Nightwave found her way to Glasgow via London due to the city’s vibrant club scene and reputation for the heavier sounds of techno. A resident of Glasgow’s La Cheetah for the past 9 years, she has cemented her status as one of Glasgow’s best electronic artists and deservedly earned a slot on the main stage at this year’s Riverside Festival.

Curated Wax initially started in lockdown as a record subscription service, but after bonding over their shared love for record collecting and music, Oscar, Fin and Joe began to run nights in Glasgow's beloved Berkeley Suite. 

Expect to hear how Curated Wax came about, how buying a collection of 2,000 records influenced their DJ'ing, their experience running nights in Berkeley Suite and what's coming up for Curated Wax in the near future. 

**Apologies to Fin for getting his name wrong. My bad.**
