KARAT RECORDS

In the mid-nineteens, when the rave syndroma turned into a tasteless carnival, she devoted herself to weird parties organizations in several Geneva's squats during 3 years alongside the Mentalgroove crew. From djing to cleaning the floor after the chaos. At this time she gives up her piano studies for a new bought Roland R8, starts to get professional bookings (Weetamix, Usine...) and to search for silence.

She began the new century teaming up with amazing friends. Miss Kittin opened her the doors, while Weetamix gave her a residency alongside Luciano. During one night in Tokyo, she played after dj Hell who decided to take her on the Gigolo roster. Musically speaking, she was not on the same side, but she got many opportunities to play her sound in various cities around the globe (including nice shots from Sweden to Brazil).

After several collaborations with artist- friends (Serafin, Dandy Jack…) and crews (Mutek Chile, Soap System Istanbul, Cosmic Chile Zürich), Sonja starts a new live/dj project named Junction SM in 2004 alongside DandyJack. It consists on an impressive combination of live and dj sessions that lasts for hours. She did several solo-live sets like in august 04 for the Overground festival. Devoted to her studio, she continues to manipulate sounds and silences…

Today, the label/collective ruta5 is under reconstruction and a bunch of label parties are organized. A remix for legendary band T21 will appear in summer on Productions spéciales. Junction SM next release is ready to be listened on Kalk Pets, and Sonja's solo one on Karat.

You can also hear some mixes on her own Internet Radio broadcast on Basic.
