Sauna Radio: live radio uit Stockholm

Eeeven...

De naald wordt afgestoft…

Sauna Radio

Steam first, then the drop.

House and techno, broadcast from a sauna on wheels.

Harold Boué, the French producer who records as Abstraxion, founded this in 2025 and put the studio inside a wooden cabin that could be towed. It started on the waterfront at Eden Bastun and was never meant to stay put: the cabin moves between neighbourhoods, cultural venues and festivals, and has turned up in Helsinki, Oulu, Berlin and the south of France. Every session is filmed as well as broadcast, so the archive doubles as a video record of who passed through the city that season.

Sessions are filed under labels of the station's own choosing — deep and minimal, dark disco and EBM, electronica and downtempo, spirituals and spoken word — and back-to-backs are the norm, with Stockholm selectors paired up with one another or with whoever happens to be passing through. Stockholms Kulturfestival and the Institut français have both taken the booth over.
