Alena Arpels

2nd Sunday of Each Month

2-4pm

London-based DJ, dancer and record collector, Alena Arpels DJs regularly across the UK and Europe, sharing the stage with legendary DJs such as Bill Brewster, Dave Lee, Nancy Noise, Luke Una, Norman Jay MBE, Kon and many more. Alena is a confident and experienced DJ, who is skilled in delivering brilliant party sets, spinning for Up On The Roof in Brixton, Sweetie's at The Standard, Apricot Ballroom Sound System and more. She equally enjoys expansive marathon vinyl-only sessions at the best audiophile venues and private members’ clubs – taking it from dinner to a packed dance floor at Brilliant Corners, Bambino, Groucho, Spiritland, Seed Library and Caia. Her record collection, taste and knowledge of brilliant obscure music have caught the attention of superstar DJ Dave Lee, Z Records, who’s invited her to select tracks for the 9th installment of the cult “Under The Influence” compilation series, following on from Red Greg, Paul Phillips, James Glass, Nick The Record, Sean P, Faze Action, Winston and Woody Bianchi. The compilation was released in September 2021 to positive reviews and received radio support from Gilles Peterson and more.
