    “Olivia is a record proxenete, dealing grooves across territories her unique sound can reach.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Olivia is a record proxenete, dealing grooves across territories her unique sound can reach. Strongly influenced by the sounds of Senegalese drums as a child, both as a percussionist and dancer, she eventually fell in love with the post modern aesthetics embedded in Detroit’s industrial landscapes. From Brooklyn to Kiev, she has been queering consciousness through her roaring, pulsing, sonorous soundscapes. Entangled in the UK underground for 5 mad years, Breakbeat, IDM, Experimental, DnB, Dub and Techno were some of the defining genres she explored as an artist. As a passionate vinyl archaeologist she keeps roaming record shops to excavate forgotten pieces that she cross-pollinates with the avant-garde, aiming to keep the magic, encoded in music, alive. Her background as a France and UK based music journalist, artist and event promoter imbues her DJ sets with an eclectic range, playfully leading us through deep, steady minimalistic journeys. She is also the founder of the FLINTA collective KONVENT, intending to create positive spaces to reinvestigate and elevate the discourse on contemporary feminism, through site-specific music and art interventions, where she smashes the patriarchy one beat at the time.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Eleonor Bianchi is a DJ and producer from Rome, now based in Berlin. After completing her Bachelor’s degree in Audio Production at SAE Milan, she relocated to Berlin to continue her artistic and sonic research within the Creative Production Master’s programme at Catalyst. Her practice focuses on hybrid electronic aesthetics, where processed voice, atmospheric textures and shifting rhythmic structures intersect. Moving between techno, experimental electronics and more introspective sound design, Eleonor shapes a personal language built on contrast, tension and emotional detail. Within Berlin’s evolving scenes, she creates DJ sets and live works that investigate identity, texture and the narrative potential of sound. Her practice is rooted in continuous research, evolving through production, voice processing and cross-disciplinary collaborations. https://linktr.ee/eleonorbianchi

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Martina Bertoni is an experimental cellist and composer whose work bridges the emotional and physical realms of sound, inviting listeners to explore the liminal spaces where perception, sound, and emotion intersect. Classically trained, Martina has developed a distinctive practice centered on electronic music, drones, synthesis, modern composition, and generative systems. Her compositions and performances expand and challenge perceptual relationships with control, spatiality, and emotional resonance. Martina’s creative process employs temporal and spatial proximities, utilising timelessness as a central compositional strategy. Through the articulation of sound-generated structures, her work investigates the relational and immersive potential of sound, fostering introspection and transformation. By crafting evocative emotional landscapes, she challenges normative listening paradigms and reimagines the experiential dimensions of space and sound. Following two self-released EPs in 2018 and 2019, Martina debuted her first full-length album, All the Ghosts are Gone (FALK, 2020). Her sophomore album, Music for Empty Flats (Karlrecords, 2021), received critical acclaim and was named one of A Closer Listen’s Top 10 Ambient Drone Albums of 2021. In 2023, she released Hypnagogia (Karlrecords), which garnered widespread praise for its immersive compositions. Her forthcoming album, Electroacoustic Works for Halldorophone, scheduled for release in February 2025 (Karlrecords), builds on her research into tuning systems and generative practices for the Halldorophone, developed during her residency at EMS Elektron Musik Studio in Stockholm. Beyond her artistic practice, Martina’s cello and original works have been featured in numerous soundtracks for films, series, and documentaries. She is also a Lecturer in Composition and Sound Design at the Catalyst Institute for Creative Arts and Technology in Berlin.

  • Nilgün Özer

    Turkey · 3 bookings since Dec 2025

    “Raised in the Black Sea mountains, Nilgün Özer is a multidisciplinary artist from Turkey, currently based in Berlin.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Raised in the Black Sea mountains, Nilgün Özer is a multidisciplinary artist from Turkey, currently based in Berlin. Her work spans various mediums—including music, fine arts, and design—driven by a thematic approach rather than a fixed discipline. Her musical practice evolved from folk and singer-songwriter roots into an experimental approach that blends electroacoustic, ambient, and experimental folk elements. Her recent album, Broken Patterns, reflects this interplay—merging east and west, acoustic and electronic, daily routines and societal unrest. The album features 13 tracks, including two octophonic compositions designed for an eight-channel sound system, immersing listeners in a fragmented yet cohesive auditory experience. Beyond sound, her practice extends into visual and tactile mediums. For Broken Patterns, she created a seven-piece mixed-media painting series, designed a conceptual booklet, and sewed performance attire. Rather than focusing on a single medium, she centers her work around themes or subjects she seeks to explore, allowing each project to take on a life of its own over time. She believes that having space to brew ideas is essential, as it enables the creation of pieces that shape an environment, nourishing these concepts. This fluid, multidisciplinary approach allows her to treat each project as an evolving ecosystem, where sound, visuals, and space interact to deepen the narrative.
