Marco’s distinctive sound as a music producer blends ambient music, modern psychedelic techno with deep tribal influences, crafting immersive auditory experiences that transcend conventional boundaries. His personal research delves into the symbiotic relationship between visual rhythm, detail, and the evolving language of visual art as influenced by technology and subcultures: a continuous exploration of synesthesia, integrating sight and sound in a way that reflects a devotion to aesthetic minimalism, combined with an chaotic post-internet abstractism.Their RA profile lists KR3 Records, Omen Wapta, area127 and DE RIO.often with Säule, Abo Abo, Seta Loto, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Andriy Kostyukov, aka Andriy K. (cusoon dj), is a Kyiv-born, Berlin-based experimental sound producer, performer and DJ. His work involves sound design experiments with ambient and club music, finding a balance between deep listening live performances and hybrid techno DJ sets. Exploring the therapeutic effects of textures and the depths of human reflection, Andriy’s live performances offer a journey through emotions and mental artifacts. His DJ sets are steeped in atmosphere — dark and often shaped by IDM and drum & bass elements. He has performed at a wide range of international festivals, clubs, and venues, including: transmediale (Berlin), 100ve (Venice), Les Siestes (Toulouse), Zvuk (Almaty), Fog (Basel), Bukolica (Czech Republic), ICKPA (Berlin). Silent Green (Berlin), OHM (Berlin), RSO (Berlin), Garage Noord (Amsterdam), Ankali (Prague), Fuchs2 (Prague), Jasna1 (Warsaw), Fitzroy (Berlin), ∄ (Kyiv), Morphine Raum (Berlin), Kwia (Berlin), and Arkaoda (Berlin). He has shared the stage with artists such as Upsammy, Spekki Webu, M.E.S.H., Raär, Mark Fell, Sedef Adasi, Evita Manji, Buttechno, Blume, Maoupa Mazzocchetti, Katarina Gryvul, and Jay Glass Dubs. In 2024 Andriy joined the Shape + artist roster, while he is working on the upcoming audio-visual release, alongside two first LP.Their RA profile lists Oscilla Sound and Surf.Last at Objekt 4000 in Aug · often with endléa, alizé.e, mu tate, none of them here that night
“BLUME, rooted in South America’s electronic music scene, has found a second home in Europe.”
their own biography
the whole biography
BLUME, rooted in South America’s electronic music scene, has found a second home in Europe. After five formative years in Amsterdam, she now resides in Berlin, drawn to its raw artistic energy. In 2019, BLUME established Format Wars, an evolving platform spanning record curation, pop-ups, listening sessions, and forward-thinking music events. As a DJ and producer, her approach is fluid and exploratory, moving between ambient, leftfield electronics, half-time rhythms, and deconstructed club music. Her tracks and sets are shaped less by genre than by texture, tension, and atmosphere, balancing weight and intensity with fragile, ghostly detail. BLUME’s music flows between eerie ambient, broken rhythms, and the freeform energy of contemporary techno. Weaving brass samples recorded by herself, polyrhythms, glitch textures, jungle influences, and non-linear percussion, she explores tempo and sonic space through an open-ended approach to composition and storytelling. Heard in clubs like Open Ground, Berghain, Tresor, OHM, RSO, Oxi, and Renate in Berlin, as well as ADE in Amsterdam and the Positive Education festival in Saint Étienne, she also leaves her mark online with appearances on NTS, Rinse FM, and Refuge Worldwide, alongside hosting The Otherness, her bi-monthly radio show on Noods. Beyond the club, she frequently brings her collection to listening bars such as Kwia and Migas, presenting extended vinyl selections focused on non-linear percussion, abstract ambient, avant-garde jazz, and sound-focused listening experiences. Alongside her work as a DJ and producer, BLUME continues to shape Format Wars into a multidisciplinary platform spanning curation, releases, and sound-focused artistic practices. Her recent focus explores generative systems, Max for Live devices, and hybrid approaches to composition and performance, reflecting an ongoing interest in sound as both structure and instability. BLUME’s work continues to resonate across international labels, radio platforms, and local crews, carried by an instinct for atmosphere, experimentation, and emotional tension.often with Säule, ROBUS, Woody92, none of them here that night
