Nastia, the Ukrainian DJ named Anastasia Topolskaia started her career in 2005. In a short time, she became a curator of the KISS FM stage and a resident at the legendary Kazantip festival, she also hosted her weekly live radio show from 2006 to 2016 on the aforementioned radio station. In 2010, she was offered a residency at Moscow’s cult Arma17 club. Inspired by the club’s team and their project, Nastia began to organize her parties in Ukraine. After gaining experience and recognition, Nastia, together with the team of Closer, the famous club in Kyiv, created the Strichka festival in 2014, which runs to this day. A year earlier she launched a vinyl label Propaganda Records, which quickly gained a strong presence in modern house music. Her career developed rapidly: she appeared on the covers of Mixmag and DJ Mag magazines, recorded an Essential Mix, and was a resident of BBC Radio 1, regularly spoke at many conferences such as ADE and the International Music Summit, frequently performed for Boiler Room and later made appearances on Berlin’s famous radio HOR. In 2019, Nastia concluded the Propaganda Records label as it no longer suited the direction where she was headed.
