AWAKENINGS ADE 2024
OCT 16 - 20, AMSTERDAM
Jefta Wattimena also known as Jephta, is a Dutch DJ based in Amsterdam and a resident of the Rotterdam-based organization Embodiment.
After playing at events like Orphic in Amsterdam and Extended in The Hague, his undeniable talent was quickly recognized and he had the chance to play at Reaktor alongside artists like Anthony Liness and Oscar Mulero. Heavily influenced by the dark atmospheres with immense depth in the Scandinavian sound and labels such as Northern Electronics and Posh Isolation, together with the repetitive and controlled sound and way of playing, Jephta crafted his own sound within this realm often including experimental and hypnotic elements in his sets. He achieves that through his hybrid setup, and in order to make his performances as fluent and dense as possible, he always has 4 decks open.
As a resident of Embodiment, Jephta feels that his duty is to bring their vision to the community, but also to the newcomers in the scene, and together to create this special vibe and what in his eyes is a perfect club night.
