softchaos is the pseudonym of Tere Stout, the Ecuadorian-American dj, multidisciplinary artist, and dancefloor evangelist. Both thoughtful and commanding, softchaos’ sets are watermarked by their meticulous pairing of groove-driven music along with aggressive percussive tracks in unison, experimenting with genre meticulously in acts of black reclamation. Embracing this practice, their sound embodies reverence to techno while staying locked into the new turn in electronic music, blending with finesse. Their versatility is seen in the range of their schedule, from their one-of-a-kind sets at and Primavera Sound, Sónar Festival, Amsterdam Dance Event and CTM to club nights at RSO, Tresor, Fabric London, Nitsa and Razzmatazz. softchaos is undoubtedly at the forefront of playfully avant-garde and disobedient electronic music at home and international stages alike. Harnessing their punk ethos, and referencing classic landscapes of New York City and Detroit, their selection of techno, breaks, and rebellious sounds offer a transcontinental call and response and an offering to dancefloors everywhere.Recently at RSO.BERLIN, Giri, OXI · often with Cora, ROBUS, Coco Calypso, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
Oldyungmayn’s identity moves through his work as a current - refracted through rhythm, bass pressure, and affective tone. As a Palestinian-Egyptian DJ and producer, now based in Berlin, he emerged from Dubai’s self-built underground - a place where creative spaces were scarce and dancefloors had to be invented from nothing. Out of this absence, he forged a sound both tactile and elusive: bass-heavy, rhythmically volatile, and charged with emotional dissonance. His DJ sets are kinetic and unpredictable, (un)folding techno’s gravity into percussive experiments, sudden ruptures, and euphoric flashes. He navigates tension and release with precision, channeling energy that feels both intimate and communal, inviting physicality and connection. “Heady, frenetic dynamism rooted in textural depth, combining harsh sonics with heavy club euphoria” is heard in Crack Mix 544 whilst BUTT Mixtape - Insane Gay Asylum Mix brings out his “handsome mixing (on) this bassy, freak-forward techno set.” In productions, Oldyungmayn draws from a wide vocabulary: the serrated textures of industrial metal, the compressed drama of video game sound design, the rhythmic codes of diasporic bass music. These influences collide into something that feels at once personal and speculative - a soundworld where dislocation becomes propulsion. With recent releases on UMAY and Magdalena’s Apathy he continues to explore new terrains of rhythm, texture, and movement. An alumni of the SHAPE+ platform for innovative music, Oldyungmayn continues to expand the edges of his sound. He’s appeared at spaces like CTM, Herrensauna, Säule, FIBER, Whole and Unsound’s Ephemera, transmitting his singular hybrid of density, joy, and controlled chaos. Currently developing his debut album and new collaborative projects, he remains committed to the same principles that started it all - a DIY ethos and insatiable curiosity.Their RA profile lists ParkingStone, UMAY and Magdalena's Apathy.Recently at KREUZWERK, Blue Velvet, Else · often with ELAYN, Aaron Blau, BOYCA, none of them here that night

Born and Raised in Berlin. With Austrian and Afro- American roots. At various Berlin Youth events he built a reputation with young creative individuals flocking his sets. Through early club impressions and a penchant for nostalgia, his sound has consolidated over time. Its eclectic selection surprises in genres where many seem to know there is nothing new. Many genres are served, from Acid House, Techno, Ballroom to East German Schranz. It's all in the mix. This is where its craving for rhythm lingers, staying consistently in tune no matter what the BPM.Recently at AVA Club, Sameheads, M01 · often with travaspango, Eric D.
