Blazing through clubs across Europe — and earlier this year, North America as well — Caniche is fast becoming a defining force in contemporary Hardgroove Techno. Her sets blend percussive textures with rap-infused vocals. Funk-heavy rhythms meet tribal elements — all grounded in old-school drums. But her signature style doesn’t stop at the booth: As a producer, Caniche channels that same driving energy into her tracks, released on renowned labels such as RAW, GRÜV, Twice Infinity, and soon, BCCO. Her debut EP, released in 2024, featured remixes by ISAIAH and CULT — adding further weight to her growing discography. On stage, she’s known for igniting floors at Berlin institutions like Tresor and RSO, while also making waves at standout clubs across Europe, including Kalt (Strasbourg), Mondo Disko (Madrid), and Grelle Forelle (Vienna). A tour through India is next on the horizon — expanding her reach even further. Off stage, Caniche co-leads the PUSH Network, curating events at both Tresor and Grelle Forelle under its banner. PUSH is dedicated to amplifying FLINTA voices in electronic music, advocating for visibility, equity, and long-term change. More than just a platform, it’s a growing movement — and Caniche stands at its heart.

“KETARINA isn’t just mixing tracks; she’s telling a story, one built on RAW energy, deep selections, and an instinct for the moment.”
their own biography
the whole biography
KETARINA isn’t just mixing tracks; she’s telling a story, one built on RAW energy, deep selections, and an instinct for the moment. A true selector at heart, she draws inspiration from the grit of French rap, the raw intensity of UK grime, and the pulse of her Latin roots, weaving it into her own vision of techno. She knows the dancefloor because she’s lived it. She knows the stage because she owns it. Every set is a conversation, a push and pull between tension and release, precision and chaos. Whether she’s locking into hypnotic grooves or flipping the script with unexpected cuts, Ketarina doesn’t just play, she creates moments. And when she’s in control, the dancefloor follows.Recently at ÆDEN, OXI, Renate · often with L-AUX, Shanda, Pōnky, none of them here that night
“Born in Switzerland and currently residing in Berlin, Germany, DJ Sun has always been immersed in music from a young age.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Born in Switzerland and currently residing in Berlin, Germany, DJ Sun has always been immersed in music from a young age. With musician parents, the connection to music has always been present. His journey began when he discovered the world of illegals rave parties in 2015 where electronic music reigned supreme. Fascinated by their organization, DJ Sun quickly decided to venture into organizing his own illegals raves, which led to the founding of the OTIUM collective in 2018. Over time, he honed his DJ skills, specializing in old-school techno infused with influences from hip hop, jazz, and house. Beyond his DJ performances, he has also delved into VJing projects, leveraging his videography skills. For the past four years, he has been creating his own compositions to add a more personal touch to his DJ sets. The creation of his own label, OTIUM Records, in collaboration with his best friend Rødig, has been one of the highlights of his artistic journey. DJ Sun’s universe stands out with a commitment to quality over quantity, focusing on creating his first EP in 2024 that will reflect an authentic artistic approach. Looking ahead, DJ Sun’s project aims to create an A/V show entirely controlled by machines on stage. This complementary project is more festival-oriented, providing a more «touring» aspect compared to the clubbing / rave element of a DJ set.

In her sets, she blurs boundaries and takes listeners on a kinetic journey between trancy expansiveness, psychedelic energy, and driving, high-pressure kicks. With a mind-bending weave of massive hardgrooves and organic, psy-infused driving techno, she guides the crowd from deep hypnosis to ecstatic peaks. Her love for electronic music initially found expression in the local underground, where she established herself as both a DJ and an event organizer. Today, SAIKA is the youngest resident DJ at the renowned GOTEC Club and has already turned other venues upside down, including Nordstern in Basel and RSO in Berlin.Last at RSO.BERLIN in Dec 2025 · often with DJ Cringey, O.B.I., ANDATA, none of them here that night
