With an unparalleled presence, style, and demeanor in the underground, DJ, producer and label head Xiorro is renowned for igniting revelry. Having begun his artistry in 2017 in Brooklyn’s then-vibrant underground, Xiorro’s current status as a Berlin-based DJ is illuminated by his impactful run in Brooklyn with ALKHEMY & the beloved warehouse and off-site rave series, The Black Hole, which he both co-founded. Now a fixture in Berlin’s fervent club scene, Xiorro has transitioned seamlessly into a resident role at RSO where he frequents regularly, picking up where he left off at with his residency when the club was known as Griessmuehle and located in Neukölln. Fueled by a relentless and unyielding dedication to the craft, Xiorro has forged a style which blends endurance with mixing prowess and a meticulous selection. For a secret that almost feels like a clandestine, the dance floor needs not to worry when in the hands of Xiorro, as he has solidified himself as a trusted armament of RSO where he’s recognized for his extended sets during the club’s renown club night weekenders. His ability to play long sets and adapt to the style of the night elevates him to a league of his own. Whether guiding the audience through an intimate, incorporeal experience or powering the dance floor with moving fervency, Xiorro’s versatility and adaptability shines through as an exquisite fusion of artistic finesse together with his Puerto Rican heritage. Moreover, what distinguishes Xiorro apart from others is not only his self-taught musical ear for composing otherworldly vibrations but also his innate sense of drive and groove. The way that Xiorro understands how groovy rhythms succumb to the drive and revel in the intensity of the increased tempo, makes him a luminary leaving an indelible mark in the hearts of listeners. The inception of Xiorro’s Whirlwind Trax label in 2019 stands as an attestation to his commitment to interpreting techno through his own lenses. With releases that showcase both Xiorro’s own work as well as the work of label affiliates, Whirlwind Trax holds a catalogue of tracks that are sure to set a soundsystem ablaze. In tandem with a mixture of a desire to create a memorable experience with an affinity for the sheer excitement of techno, Xiorro now works on the continuance of The Black Hole now evolving into the ULTRANOVA club night series at RSO in 2024. Creating a community for the outcast of the outcasts, Xiorro is now focused on cultivating his own community within the Berlin ecosystem through his newly inaugurated night.Their RA profile lists Whirlwind Trax.Recently at RSO.BERLIN, Latitude Record Store, Tresor / Globus · often with ROBUS, Henning Baer, Ellen Allien, none of them here that night

Growing up as a first generation Syrian-born kid, the struggles of integrating into the Dutch society while balancing his Arabic heritage and burgeoning queerness proved to be a struggle - often finding himself in between worlds, caught amidst maintaining his inner pride and sense of self against a world that he strained to see himself in. Through the desire to find harmony within a lifetime of dissonance, Fafi found dance music in his young adulthood. While his connection to the music was powerful and provided a necessary level of personal reprieve, he soon realized there was a need for more participation from artists and DJs of color in the scene. Fafi’s queer clubnights at OOST in Groningen were born out of this resolve to create community empowerment for marginalized people to transcend beyond the oppressive dominant culture surrounding them. As a DJ, Fafi never fails to captivate dancers into a sense of timelessness & otherworldly joy. His sets distill the liberatory kinetics of house music down to its very essence, embodying an era of music unaffected by genre-constraints or rules. Dissolving boundaries between sound, movement and being, dancers can expect everything from spellbinding melodic passages, house-inflected body music and enchanted breakbeats melded into flourishes of ecstatic sensation. Oscillating between jubilance and insight with a distinctive sense of narrative and technical finesse, Fafi’s selections expand the universe of mystic, passionate and evocative strains of house - tapping into the source of music’s fundamental ability to transform lives, through a deeply personal level of expression transmuted directly from his soul through the speakers. Always encouraging us to connect with one another and celebrate the myriad of differences we share in our world, Fafi’s vibration has radiated simply by embodying his truth and encouraging others to do the same for themselves. Currently based in Amsterdam and with a slew of gigs only continuing to manifest throughout the world, his mantra remains the same no matter where the music is played - Love is the messageRecently at Berghain, RSO.BERLIN · often with Jennifer Loveless, VINVAR, CRYME, none of them here that night

From intimate underground gatherings to packed main rooms, ISAbella has become a leading figure in today’s global electronic scene. As co-founder of the celebrated LGBTQ+ party, platform and collective MARICAS, she has crafted inclusive spaces that celebrate queer culture and foster connection both on and off the dancefloor. Her impact, however, extends far beyond the city – ISAbella is now a powerful presence on the international electronic music circuit, known for emotionally charged sets that blend house and techno into deeply transformative dancefloor journeys. Originally from Cali, Colombia, ISAbella found her creative home in Barcelona, where she co-founded MARICAS in 2018—a party that quickly evolved into a multidisciplinary platform and record label. In 2020, she released her debut EP Audio Exótica on MARICAS Records and launched the livestream series The Art of Staying at Home, which offered a lifeline of connection and joy during lockdown. As a producer, ISAbella continues to explore hypnotic and percussive sonic landscapes that reflect her Latin American roots and club sensibilities. Her music has been featured on respected imprints like Peach Discs and MARICAS Records, with tracks that balance raw emotional intensity and bold rhythmic energy—further solidifying her voice as a singular artist in the global scene. Her reach has since gone global, with standout performances at world-renowned festivals like Primavera Sound, Glastonbury, Sónar, Dekmantel, Dimensions and Lentekabinet. On the club circuit, she’s brought her distinctive sound to iconic, legendary venues including Berghain, Fabric, Nitsa and Fold. Beyond the decks, ISAbella continues to push for visibility and liberation within the scene—championing a vision of club culture that is radical, joyful and deeply human.often with Roza Terenzi, Miss Parker, Jennifer Loveless, none of them here that night

Starting out as a party promoter in Fukuoka, Richii has led a global\nomadic lifestyle spanning from Japan to Australia and most recently Berlin, allowing her to rack up a considerable portfolio of dancefloor miles in different scenes.
