    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Exploring the vinyl labyrinthes of Europe, Benabou has found herself inducted into the eclectic effervescent of the techno world. Drawing influence from notable labels (Token, Polegroup, Eaux, Semantica, Hypnus Records, Northern Electronics…), she delivers a project with experimental resonances. Her curious expeditions have led her since a young age to accumulate strong inclinations for the fluid and vaporous resonances of jazz, soul and psychedelic music. This results in a natural tendency to adorn her tracks with ambient and ethereal synths that immerses us into a dark and hypnotic dimension. C’est en parcourant les labyrinthes des vinyles shops européens que Benabou finit par se mêler à l’effervescence éclectique du milieu de la techno. Influencée par des labels notoires (Token, Polegroup, Eaux, Semantica, Hypnus Records, Northern Electronics…), elle nous livre un projet aux résonances expérimentales. Sa curiosité l’amène depuis très jeune à cultiver de forts penchants pour les résonances fluides et vaporeuses du jazz, de la soul et de la musique psychédélique. Cette tendance naturelle à orner ses tracks de nappes et de synthés éthérés fait alors sens et nous plonge dans une atmosphère à la foi sombre, disciplinée et hypnotique.

    “So, there's this super cool guy named Alexkid.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    So, there's this super cool guy named Alexkid. He's been doing awesome music stuff for almost three whole decades. First, he was in Paris, but now he lives in Berlin, which is far away. People really like him because he's really good at making music and he loves playing with music machines, like big musical toys. When he was a kid, he liked music gadgets more than video games, unlike his friends. He started with music machines and it led him on a big adventure of making cool music and working with others. Alexkid can do lots of things like a superhero. He can be a DJ (that's like the person who makes everyone dance at a party), a music maker, a tech expert, and a sound scientist. In the past, he made special music albums that everybody loved. He was also like the DJ boss at famous places where people dance. Like the Rex Club or Watergate. He's part of different music groups, and he's known by big music labels like Rawax, Fuse, Rekids, and other labels with weird names that sound trendy. His music stories are magical. They can make you feel like you're dancing at a concert or dreaming in a magical world, all from listening to his music. Even though he's always looking for the perfect music beat, he's also like a jazz explorer, finding cool sounds even when they seem a little strange. Now, he doesn't travel to parties as much because he's really good at making computer software that he loves, and also has discovered he likes to sleep. He's like a computer music wizard! But sometimes he still makes parties super fun in Berlin at a place called Renate. He makes everyone dance and have a blast. So, even though he's a grown-up now, he's still making music and making people happy.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    With a musical mind that is both innovative and artistic and an infectious appreciation for sound, Thilini is an ever-growing force in underground circles. Originally from Brisbane and drawn to the pulse of Sydney, Thilini’s early days saw her spinning iconic Australian events like Breakfast Club, SASH and Subsonic Music Festival and holding a residency with Sydney's influential Mantra Collective crew. Through her own FLUX events, she brought international heavyweights like Archie Hamilton, Julian Perez, and Cristi Cons to Brisbane for the first time, driven by a vision to reshape the city’s musical landscape and educate the dance floor. Now in Berlin, Thilini is carving out her space in one of the world’s most competitive club scenes. She’s found her rhythm at cult-favourite venues like Heideglühen, Sisyphos, Club der Visionäre, and Renate. Her sets are a showcase of versatility and deep crate-digging, weaving together groove-heavy house, minimal, UKG, breakbeat, and more, all while reflecting her understanding of music as a conversation that’s constantly evolving and never predictable. Her reach stretches across the Atlantic too. Since 2021, Thilini has become a regular in New York’s revered house scene, holding an international residency with Golden Record NYC and contributing to the sound curation behind the scenes. Always on the hunt for intelligent beats that move the dance floor, she continues to push boundaries with a subtle but undeniable energy that pulls people in. And her influence extends beyond the decks. A dedicated advocate for equality in the music industry, Thilini is working to build a more inclusive, equitable scene. Through thoughtful programming, amplifying underrepresented voices, as well as advocacy and education efforts, she’s helping drive meaningful change. For her, music is as much about community as it is about sound. Her journey is far from over. Keep an ear to the (under)ground, big things are on the horizon for Thilini.

  • Johannes Albert

    Berlin · 10 bookings since Aug 2025

    “Johannes Albert is a well-known House music producer and DJ from Berlin.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Johannes Albert is a well-known House music producer and DJ from Berlin. For over 10 years, he has been running his own music label, Frank Music, and has become a key figure in Berlin’s club scene and beyond. His DJ career has taken him around the world—from London and Tokyo to Sao Paolo and Offenbach—thanks to his exciting sets and reputation for mixing different music styles. He has also released music on respected labels like Live At Robert Johnson, Rawax, and Permanent Vacation. Johannes blends different styles in music, mixing modern disco affairs with acid house, current rave revivals, and classics in the right moment. His sets are energetic and full of surprises, often showing off his open taste in music. He grew up in Franconia near Würzburg and got into music through his love for House and Disco. Over time, his interests expanded to include Techno, Italo Disco, and more. His talent and personality helped him rise from small hometown clubs to become a regular at top venues like Robert Johnson and international venues like Sunday Sunday in Mexico City. Frank Music started as a home for his own work, leading to four solo albums, including the ambient gem "Spessart". Tracks like "Endorphin Refill" and "Fountain of Youth" have become favorites, and he has also worked with artists like I:Cube, Fred P, Eden Burns, Robert Owens and Gerd Janson. The quadruple Moon album series with longtime collaborator Iron Curtis show off his more moody material while his EPs with Lauer & Biesmans are made straight for club-use. Johannes is also a sought-after remixer, known for his versatility and instinct for the dancefloor. Artists like Riva Starr & Mark Broom, Keinemusik, and Catz 'N Dogz have trusted him to reinterpret their work. In summer 2025, the acclaimed producer returns with his forthcoming album "Private Dancer" on Permanent Vacation and it's a statement. The album - his first in 6 years - stars a sound that was always in him - called House - something that moves the body and warms the soul. Collaboration is key. London's own Helen Salvin graces "Wide-Eyed" with her magnificent voice where midtempo meets a subtle boogie. Things heat up when Biesmans jumps in for the infectious, uptempo "Get My Gee". And when friend Iron Curtis lends a hand, the title track "Private Dancer" melts into subliminal grooves. With 15 years of releases and 25 years behind the DJ booth Johannes Albert masters the balance: Dance Music that's always classy yet still offers a modern twist. Maybe all we need now is a basement, a red light, and - you know it - more of that feeling.
    Their RA profile lists Permanent Vacation, Live At Robert Johnson, Jack Off, Frank Music and 2 more.
