critical Ps’ sets, as well as her productions, are very much influenced by the past. Laying down old school groovy house tracks, mixed with a bit of modern day soul creates a fusion of feel good chugging beats that you can’t help but bop to. While her taste is refined, her selection veers away from being perfectly polished but instead prefers songs that are more grungy and rough around the edges. Originating from Duisburg, she now finds herself living in Berlin where she has become part of a house trio collective known as Kedi Bounce who have performed in multiple locations throughout the city such as: Else, Renate, Alte Munze, Sisyphos, Bulbul & Paloma for promoters such as QS1, while also hosting their own event series called Kat Nip from time to time. critical P brings attitude and composure to each of her sets, knowing when to ignite the crowd and when to let them groove along. Her production life is centred around a collective called ORA, an all female group focused on releasing various forms of electronic music from each of their members. With a few releases out already, she is planning on releasing more house music in 2026.Their RA profile lists ORA and Kedi Bounce.Recently at Paloma, Lark · often with Beryll, Freigeist, Dario Klein, none of them here that night

Born in Frankfurt am Main, maxim_jl found his footing on the dance floors of institutions such as Robert Johnson, Cocoon and Tanzhaus West, absorbing house and techno from an early age. Now Berlin-based, he threads that formative schooling into sets that glide from disco-fueled grooves to the punchy momentum of modern house, always tuned to the pulse of the floor. His mission is timeless: create spaces where strangers trade smiles, sweat and new stories, giving back to the culture that has shaped him. Alongside this, he co-founded Slammin’ House Movement, a Berlin-based platform shaping a distinct, high-energy take on house music. Rooted in the city’s underground club culture and influenced by scenes beyond it, the project channels his sound into curated spaces where selection carries intent, bringing artists and communities together to carry that culture forward.Recently at M01, Coco Boule · often with bīsu, Julian Sander, Marit, none of them here that night
