the whole biography
Starting her solo career in 2021, Lucia Lu explored genre-fluid DJ sets as a process of searching — tracing her musical roots between the African diaspora and the German club scene, moving through house and techno without fixed boundaries. In 2025, this exploration crystallized into a clear artistic shift. Leaving genre fluidity behind, she now dedicates herself fully to techno, drawing inspiration from the pioneering spirit of Detroit while translating it into a contemporary, driving club language. Her sets are focused, hypnotic and intentional — rooted in history, built for the floor.Last at Spartacus Potsdam in Aug · often with Inverse Element, ZAKARE, Lars Huismann, none of them here that night
“Lixi was born and raised in Cologne and now calls Berlin home.”

the whole biography
Lixi was born and raised in Cologne and now calls Berlin home. He’s been behind the decks for about a year, already playing at venues like KitKat and RSO, steadily carving out his place in the scene. His sets blend emotional, cosmic melodies with hard, motorized techno — aiming to propel bodies into a feverish frenzy. It’s a sound that feels like stardust shot through an engine block: delicate, destructive, and euphoric.often with Huamaniser, Mama Yha Yha, ALP (DE), none of them here that night
