Club Highlight – Sanna Samuelsson

Posted September 4, 2014 in More, Music

 Sanna Samuelsson likes to party and to write, and luckily she gets to do both for a living. She’s the editor of electronic magazine PFT, which is downloadable at pft.nu. Featuring texts by an interesting array of young writers, it mostly covers culture and politics. She’s also doing the radio show SATAN Radio at Radio Skanstull. Not exactly work-shy, she also promotes the club Disko Dumpling at the Bamboo Garden Chinese restaurant, with Lap-See Lam and Johan Norling. Besides freelancing for different magazines she is also a part of Grupp 13, a female- and trans-separatist party promoter gang that creates great parties, inside as well as outside. Sanna is born in the countryside and likes cats and folköl.

What are your plans for this year?

My plans for the rest of the year is to spend a month in Berlin, I need to get away. This summer I’m also hopefully doing some fun parties and another issue of PFT. Then I’ll help my parents at their farm, they are retiring and need to fix lots of things before moving. Then I want to travel alone to the US for a few months this fall, but we’ll see how that goes.

What’s this new radio show all about?

It’s different every time. It’s an interview, talk-show thing with different themes. So far I’ve spoken to the artist Iris Smeds about work and the director and playwright Marcus Lindeen about dreams and daydreams. The next one will be about growing up on a farm. I’m talking to the amazing photographer Märta Thisner, who shares my background. You can listen at radioskanstull.fm!

 What can we expect from your club nights?

Good music, a chilled vibe and great venues that are not on Stureplan. No snobbery, no music nerdism when it comes to genres. Most likely I’ll sit down and DJ. You can probably expect that my girls and queers will hang around with me and keep it nice!

 What’s your favourite nightspot in Stockholm?

Right now: Dovas basement at Ringvägen, you can find great clubs there, such as Body and FIST.

 Where do you go to eat?

I don’t eat out very often, Stockholm has too much meat on the menus. That said, I like Lao Wau, Kokyo, Cafe Reggev, Elefantpojken… That’s about it. And Bamboo Garden!

What about bars?

Bamboo Garden’s bar of course. KB if you want some luxury and can take the old men. I sometimes end up at Blecktornskällaren, I’m not sure why. I avoid Riche and all places with pointers.

 What’s your ideas of how Stockholm’s nightlife can improve?

Make it cheaper and more open. I hope young club organizers will abandon the classic venues with pointers and expensive cocktails, and start finding better venues to be at, where everyone is welcome. I hope we will se more parties in the suburbs. One good example is Vårbergs Dansservice at Angelos in Vårberg. Although I live north of the city so I hope there will be more parties on the blue line!
