El Tony Mate recently brought its Selected Sessions series to Basel’s iconic fondue bar Hafechäs, where Mixmag cover star and March 2026 DJ-Kicks artist, Peruvian house and techno DJ Sofia Kourtesis, and local Swiss talent Sebastian Konrad played to 75 selected guests on April 9th.

Now, everyone’s invited to experience it, as the full set from Sofia Kourtesis is available to watch on YouTube.

At each Selected Sessions event, El Tony Mate brings together globally renowned headliners (e.g. DJ Tennis, Sofia Kourtesis, Young Marco, Innervisions’ EDE alongside carefully selected local talent, hosting intimate events across Europe in unique locations such as Hafechäs (Basel), Merguez Fripe (Marseille), Condomerie (Amsterdam), Amira Barbershop (Zurich), and La Taqueria (Zurich).

‘With Selected Sessions, we aim to revive the true spirit of electronic music – where culture, creativity, and people come together on the same wavelength,’ says Flo Würgler, El Tony Mate’s Marketing Director.

El Tony Mate, known within the global club scene for its natural energy drink, curates the Selected Sessions as intimate, music-first experiences that contribute to the cultural landscape. The focus lies on connection over convention, creativity over commerciality, and carefully curated settings over scale. They also run DJ academies across Europe and producer academies in Ibiza to support and develop emerging talent.
