their own biography
the whole biography
Boris, the long-standing Berghain resident, is deeply committed to the captivating magic that unfolds on the dance floor. This burning passion within him sparks a longing to shape, tease and playfully amplify the intensity of the dance floor action. With over two decades of experience as a producer for the likes of Ostgut Ton and Careless and as a DJ, he remains an unwavering, yet never predictable, mainstay. Renowned for his extended, scorching techno closing sets, Boris is one of the most well-versed and dedicated protagonists in Berlin's vibrant queer electronic scene. However, to pigeonhole Boris only to Berlin would be doing him a disservice. In fact, his visits to legendary clubs like Paradise Garage and the Loft in New York City have left an indelible mark on his persona and DJ style. Imagine the euphoric sounds that created a sense of belonging and ecstasy in Boris's heart while experiencing the massive pumping sound and welcoming community feeling at NYC's clubs. He brings this same warmth and playful energy to dance floors worldwide. His infectious style makes it effortless for clubbers to lose themselves in the music and partying, earning him a loyal following within the queer scene - and beyond. Whether he's playing small, intimate clubs, festivals, or his prestigious residencies such as Berghain, Faust in Seoul, or House of Mince in Sydney, Boris has the gift to take people to another state of mind where nothing matters but the music and the moment.Techno on 5, House on 6, Electro on 3 and Ambient on 2. styles on their catalogued releasesTheir RA profile lists Ostgut Ton, Careless Records and 30D Records.Recently at Berghain, Der Weiße Hase, Coco Boule · often with Wilco, Veit, Bjorn, none of them here that night

Stemming from Lecce Massimilano Pagliara has been based in Berlin for several years where he's been one of the main forces behind recombining the city's hardboiled techno scene with an often overlooked sensibility for the soft and the tender. Call it underground disco passion. Massi describes his style as an eclectic mix of house, disco, electro and techno – one may call it current-yet-classic. DJing has since led to production. These days Massi lets his obsession with analog synths run wild – usually he's holed up in his apartment studio, working on his latest productions. Massimilano's last and sophomore album, ‘With One Another’ (LARJ, 2014), was about celebrating the joy of human encounters and in parts seemed like a big get-together with like-minded artists and friends. The record quickly hit the number one spot in Groove magazine's album chart – and its creator hit the road. Besides his busy DJ schedule and far from the usual club circuit routines, the Panorama Bar resident dedicated himself to intense travelling and exploring the world anew. ‘Feel Live’, Massimiliano's third full-length endeavour was recorded in several intimate, sometimes improvised studio settings between Los Angeles, Portland, and Massimiliano's homebase in Berlin as well as at airports and on intercontinental flights high up in the sky – Massi's most playful and imaginative work to date. It's as emotional as sensual, as vibrant as the first ray of light after a thunderstorm has cleared the air.Their RA profile lists Ostgut Ton, Balihu, Meakusma, Live At Robert Johnson and 6 more.Recently at Berghain, KREUZWERK · often with cotton, Quelza, Gabrielle Kwarteng, none of them here that night

Rooted in the golden lineage of NYC’s queer nightlife, Tom Peters carries forward the legacy of legends. Mentored by Kevin McHugh, the visionary behind Danny Tenaglia, Maxi Records, and Club Vinyl, Tom’s sound is steeped in the hypnotic pulse of tribal house and groovy techno. As a resident DJ for Susanne Bartsch’s ON TOP at The Standard’s legendary LeBain, he spins under the roof of a nightlife icon who gave RuPaul her first stage and founded the iconic Love Ball. Blending the raw energy of Berlin’s underground with the flamboyant glamour of NYC, Tom crafts dancefloors that are both liberating and technically refined. His sets are more than music, they're lineage, legacy, and liberation. Founder of DESSERT...is serving and BERLINCIAGAY, Tom Peters continues to make waves in the electronic music world. Known for fusing diva vocals, Latin percussion, and tribal rhythms into his sets and productions, his sound reflects the influence of McHugh, who managed him for four years and left a lasting mark on his artistic path. With standout performances at Berghain for SNAX, Basement NYC, the Gegen x Pornceptual NYE marathon at RSO Berlin, and a long-running residency with Susanne Bartsch at LeBain, as well as a collaboration with Honey Dijon, Tom has cemented his reputation as a powerhouse in the queer club-focused house and groovy techno world.Tech House on 10, Deep House on 6, Techno on 5 and Progressive House on 5. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on ...is serving (1), Innervisions (1) and Selador Recordings (1); their RA profile also lists Get Physical Music, Kompakt, Kompakt Extra, Kinetika Records and 4 more. labels on their catalogued releases and on their RA profileRecently at HHV.de Store, Berghain, ÆDEN · often with Phase Fatale, Roi Perez, BASHKKA, none of them here that night

Cormac (Polari/Running Back/Ostgut Ton/Correspondant) No longer one of dance musics' best-kept secrets Cormac's reputation as a revered selector has rapidly spread. The Queer Northern Ireland-born DJ is now soundtracking dancefloors the world over with his unique take on HI-NRG, House and Techno. Cormac was a listener and dancefloor staple at zeitgeist defining London institutions such as Trade, Nag Nag Nag, and Bugged Out! He's currently resident at Dicks in Ankali, Prague and is working on an event 'Aqueerius' with the same crew. As well as appearances at key events like Sonar Festival, PollarWeisen, Circoloco, WHOLE Festival, Homobloc, Adonis, isburning, Shmutz, Mustang, and many more. In Berlin and Europe, he's best known for his legendary closing performances at Panorama Bar and Snax. Sometimes running up to eleven hours in length, and with free reign to play across the board sonically, Cormac has fast become a staple on the line-ups for the club. As the light pours in on Monday mornings, the crowd are kept moving with a selection of his extensive 20 years of DJ knowledge. In 2021 he founded his own imprint Polari Records. Polari is named in reference to the secret old-school gay slang once used in Europe. The label showcases new and established producers with each release featuring collectible artwork from LGBTQ+ artists. Cormac's BBC Radio 1 Essential mix featured exclusive non-released material from Polari and artists Gerd Janson, Kink, Volta, Alan Dixon, and Jordan Nocturne, alongside the debut of his first solo release on Polari, the much loved anthem “Heartcore”. As one half of "Comets", he released on the revered Berlin label Ostgut-Ton. “Sparks” an homage to Cowley and Bobby O was released in 2022 on Polari Records. 2023 sees a debut on Running Back Records and the release of Leather ’n Lasers on Polari Records.

the whole biography
What started as a hobby in 2005, took a serious turn upon his move to Vienna in 2016. Since then, he has become a driving force in the city’s underground scene. He is one of the founding members of A party called JACK, an event series and collective celebrating house music and its origins in funk, soul, and disco. Rumi later also launched GAZE, a platform amplifying the “queer gaze” on electronic music, visual arts, and performance — now a cornerstone of Vienna’s LGBTQI+ community. Rumi’s dynamic approach behind the decks (mixing both vinyl and digital) has led to appearances at acclaimed clubs, parties and festivals across Europe over the last few years. In 2026, Rumi steps into a long-awaited new phase, co-launching a record label and releasing his first productions which are the fruit of 21 years of devoted music digging.Recently at Kater, Prince Charles · often with Dr. Rubinstein, Jay Jackson, fka.m4a, none of them here that night
