the whole biography
ANouch is an electronic music DJ and producer based in Lausanne, native from Liège, Belgium. ANouch has been in love with music since she was young, and at the age of 15, she discovered electronic music and her first influences: Jeff Mills, DJ Rush, and Miss Kittin & The Hacker. A few years later, she started deejaying and bought her first vinyls. Since then, ANouch has been a leading figure on the international electronic scene, performing in cities such as Berlin, Paris, Bangkok, Brussels, and across Switzerland, including Zürich, Basel, Geneva, and Lausanne. In 2018, her passion for music led her to explore music production. Her compositions have been released on various labels, including the latest "Jean Yann Records" based in Berlin. Her EP "Firefly" released in 2022 was ranked among the best selling Beatport. ANouch's sets are characterized by her ability to mix Electro, Dark Disco, Indie Dance, and Deep Techno to create a unique blend of original sounds that immerse the audience in an emotion exalted by a well-presented and melodic rhythm. Her leitmotiv is to take her audience on a journey and tell a story through her music. With a passion for music that shines through in her performances and compositions, ANouch has established herself as a rising star in the electronic music scene.Their RA profile lists Lauter Unfug, Jean Yann Records, Shikki Mikki Records and Nomadism Records.often with Frankie Flowerz, Ricardo Rodriguez, ACID BOGEN, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Working as a discjockey since 2007, Leon Licht has become an all-round DJ and a chameleon of sorts. Being knee deep into Berlin’s pulsating nightlife and his full dedication to the craft have cemented his way to the top. Growing a dedicated following and earning a reputation of delivering energetic vibes. First and foremost stands his ability to adapt his style to a particular mood, place and time. Keeping both ears open for current sounds and trends. But always staying true to his inner rave spirit and matching the energy of his audience. Be it the kind of organic tech-house that sounds like tennis balls being served, fury techno for peak time or a warm blanket of sounds for after-hours. As a lovechild of Berlin, Leon Licht’s interest for electronic music came through listening to music from 90’s Loveparade compilations and the days of MTV. His early interest and the abundance of nightlife in Berlin made for ideal conditions for his roots in rave to grow. Hanging out from Monday to Sunday in clubs grew the appetite to contribute to the scene himself. Meeting like minded people and absorbing every inch of nightlife along the way. These days he can be found touring all over Europe, but is always eager to return home to Berlin. Where he regularly plays Wilde Renate, Kater Blau, Watergate and his ever evolving residency in Sisyphos. Where he gets hordes of people into the groove and delivers his versatile array of flavours on any floor. With a steady stream of gigs lined up, he shows no signs of taming down his relentless hunger of being part of nightlife.Last at Renate in Aug · often with Memo., ADAMN, Rosa Kante, none of them here that night

Since the release of the single "Pulse" in 2021, Gizmo has experienced a steady rise. His tracks "Rush" and "Overdrive" reached the #1 position on the international Techno Release Charts on Beatport and are played worldwide. With over 3 million streams on Spotify and releases on renowned labels like Codex Recordings and Iboga Records, his music has made a strong impression in the scene and is highly valued. The reward for his work is impressive: festival and club appearances across Germany, tours in Central America, and major international collaborations. There’s no question of slowing down, which is why we can expect much more from this artist in the future.Their RA profile lists 1605, Iboga Records, Codex Recordings and TURBO.often with Sabura, NOTA, HOFFi, none of them here that night

“Markus Klee is quickly becoming a synonym for energizing groovy techno and tech house.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Markus Klee is quickly becoming a synonym for energizing groovy techno and tech house. The Berlin-based DJ and producer has been part of the Berlin electronic music scene for many years now and has since then become simply irreplaceable. His first experiences as a DJ were however as spontaneous and coincidental as could be: his talents came to surface during several after hour parties, where he would perfect his skills and experiment on a self-taught basis. Markus Klee is well known for demonstrating great expertise and performing in Berlin clubs like Ritter Butzke, IPSE, Suicide Circus or Weekend, which in turn allowed him to become a guest DJ in Munich’s best clubs and has given him the opportunity to successfully showcase his talents internationally in countries like Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Austria, Serbia and Switzerland. In early 2015 he began releasing his very own tracks on his very own label, Konzeptions, which he co-founded along with SoKool and Mr. Schug. He has additionally released tracks on labels like Lapsus Music & Patent Skillz.Their RA profile lists Ritter Butzke Studio and Konzeptions.Last at Ritter Butzke in Aug · often with Malouna, Prismode, Solvane, none of them here that night
