the whole biography
Her name may derive from the Turkish word for ‘different’, but its energy translates into every aspect of BASHKKA’s self-expression. From slaying the dancefloor with sensually acerbic sets to her ardent advocation of the cultural, political and de-colonial advancement of electronic music, BASHKKA is breathing fresh air into the scene with everything she sets her mind to. Irreversibly shaped by a decade living in New York and the Black & Brown trans women who inspired her truest incarnation, BASHKKA brings the flavour and authenticity of The Big Apple’s Ballroom scene to every party she plays. From her hometown residency at Munich’s Blitz Club to Berghain’s Panorama Bar, where she’s quickly become a regular, her sets channel an intoxicating energy that’s self-professedly “CUNT!” And on the other side of the booth, BASHKKA’s unapologetic integrity is echoed in her unwavering activism and commitment to her community. Through her vocal politics and dedication to SWANA and queer representation in the scene, BASHKKA is reimagining the counter-cultural potential of electronic music’s origins for the contemporary club sphere. Her debut EP, forthcoming in 2023, will see BASHKKA’s brazen attitude blended with a highly underrated technical prowess.Their RA profile lists UMAY and Spotlight Records.Last at Berghain in Oct · often with Berghain, Fadi Mohem, Gabrielle Kwarteng, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Majdolen is a Syrian-born DJ, producer, and curator whose rapid ascent in Berlin’s club scene has been nothing short of striking. Since emerging as a powerful presence behind the decks, her name has become a fixture on lineups across the city—gracing venues big and small. A resident at Power Dance Club and headlining some of its most defining queer parties, including Herrensauna, Cocktail D’amore and WHOLE Festival. She shapes her sound by a refined sensitivity to space and crowd. adapting fluidly between rooms and moods; oscillating between techno B-sides laced with low-end tension and percussive restraint, trance-drenched psychedelia, rough-cut house, shimmering disco hybrids, and emotionally potent minimal tools. Her sound draws from the past but reframes it through a contemporary lens, always bringing something unexpected while staying emotionally attuned. Her sets often unleash a collective release, with energy that unfolds from the first moment to the last, driven by the emotional arcs and sonic narratives she sculpts with precision, This approach has earned her growing recognition in Berlin and beyond, both for her storytelling and her grounding presence in queer nightlife. She expanded her voice as a producer with her debut EP Spirals (Umay Works), offering intricate, affective compositions that mirror the same vision that fuels her DJ sets.Recently at Zur Klappe, Kater, OXI · often with Massimiliano Pagliara, Khloe, ābnamā, none of them here that night

Founder and resident DJ of Power Dance Club in Athens and Berlin, Stathis has been a driving force in Europe’s queer underground for over a decade. Known for his eclectic, leftfield selections that blend electronic dance music with a fearless sense of play, he’s shaped dance floors from warehouse raves to major festivals. As the visionary behind the now-legendary DISCOSÓDOMA in London, Stathis helped redefine queer club culture in the UK before moving on to new creative chapters. His sets have lit up iconic venues like Berghain/Panorama Bar and Glastonbury’s Block9, where his bold sonic storytelling continues to leave a lasting imprint.Recently at Berghain, RSO.BERLIN, KREUZWERK · often with Byron Yeates, Maria Politi, Chris Cruse, none of them here that night
“Soon after moving to Berlin in 2015, she came upon a passion for collecting records – starting with hip-hop, funk, soul, jazz and boogie.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Soon after moving to Berlin in 2015, she came upon a passion for collecting records – starting with hip-hop, funk, soul, jazz and boogie. At a certain point, she began to receive some invitations to play her collection out at bars, which was around the same time she began going out to dance in the city’s clubs – her wider investigation of electronic dance music soon followed. So one could say Stella’s DJ practice began with collecting, then gained dimension as a selector and dancer, and this is audible in her sound – she plays sets that stoke a warmth in the body and keep it lit, sequences of deep-dug cuts that are mixed with a tactile intuition and trust in the track that only a vinyl DJ could have. Over the years, Stella has become a signature member of Berlin’s club community, enacting an old-school ethic of the DJ as a community-driven role. Today she is well-known for her wide knowledge of classic, groove-driven house and disco, as well as deep dubs and acid, but her rise as a DJ came hand-in-hand with booking and curating. After a number of years organising parties at the DIY venue Kake Stella founded Body Language with Camilla Rae and Caitlin Russell in 2021. Gaining a committed crowd over the last years, Body Language has hosted a vibrant array of international and local DJs. Rather than needing to brand the party with markers of identity, Stella emphasises the core ethic of the party being its openness – the function encourages a range of sounds and styles (one can hear everything from clever, groovy house and techno to classic Chicago cuts to RnB-laced high-NRG in recorded sets on SoundCloud) and so welcomes a heterogenous crowd. In this way, Body Language is part of a shift into a new line of queer parties in Berlin – “queer” precisely because diversity runs through its bookings, its sound systems, its dancefloors, and isn’t just a catchword printed on a statement. Although Stella’s original plans to become a singer were quickly overtaken by the drive to play out her record collection, 2022 saw the release of Détends-Toi and the formation of Stella and the Longos, a band and collaborative project with DJ and musician Ed Longo. Released on Cosmic Records, the album is a sensual tribute to 80s Zouk and Boogie, with Stella’s silky, sultry vocals taking the fore. Much like her DJ-practice, the project pays loving homage to sounds of the past while spinning them into the present, never simply lapsing into nostalgia. The 6-piece band has toured extensively over the last years, which has provided a counterpoint to Stella’s increasingly international DJ gigs – some notable bookings include Nowadays, De School, Gay Haze and a stint of sets in China last year. Closer to home, she has been a resident at Cocktail D’Amore since its heyday years at Griessmühle and played at Panorama Bar for the first residency night programmed by Refuge Worldwide, where she also hosts the Breakfast Show once a month. On the airwaves, in Berlin or abroad, a DJ-set or studio recording or upcoming edition of Body Language – whatever it may be, make sure to catch the singular warmth and deeply cultivated love of music Stella brings to the table. There’s nothing quite like it.Their RA profile lists Cosmic Romance.Recently at Berghain, Tresor / Globus · often with TRESOR, GLOBUS, Daniel Bell, none of them here that night
