their own biography
the whole biography
Kikelomo's eclectic sound stems from many influences in her life, including her home city London and her Nigerian roots. As a result, her high energy sets are packed full of everything from techno, house, garage, bass, deconstructed club, house, jungle, jersey club , electro, hip hop and more. This sound has become renowned for its ability to get crowds moving. Since starting out in September 2017, Kikelomo has experienced an explosive growth, playing across multiple continents alongside industry heavyweights, from Objekt to DJ Stingray to Skepta. She has launched t-shirts in collaboration with Adidas and Keep Hush, played and regularly hosts at Boiler Room, as well as continuing to showcase her sound at events like Splash! Festival, the infamous Fusion Festival, opening the internationally renowned CTM Festival at Berlin’s prestigious Berghain/Panorama Bar, in addition to being given the honour of playing to a crowd of 100,000+ people at the Brandenburger Tor national monument, broadcast on national television to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Kikelomo is actively involved with broader initiatives pushing for diversity and inclusion in the music industry, co-chairing the D&I workstream for the Association for Electronic Music.Recently at Berghain, OHM, Mom's Limousine Service · often with Berghain, Virginia, LIL RISK, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
Meg10 moves like someone who understands clubs as cultural pressure points and playgrounds for self-expression. Rooted in hip-hop and reggaeton, and sharpened by years inside Europe’s more uncompromising dance floors, the Berlin-based DJ has spent the last nine years shaping a sound that sits somewhere between politics and pleasure: bass-heavy, polyrhythmic, and unapologetically femme. Her path runs through rooms that carry real weight: Berghain, Tresor and Watergate in Berlin, Razzmatazz in Barcelona, Drugstore in Belgrade, Le Bain in New York, Axis Club in Chengdu. In 2025, she closed ADE with her club night Hoe__mies and appeared at defining parties including Riposte at Electrowerkz and HOWL Pride Fest in London, Pornceptual in Berlin, and En1gma in Madrid. Festival stages followed: WHOLE, Horst, Pukkelpop, Fusion, Wireless, and Sonder in Australia. Alongside this, her eye for image and style has led to ongoing relationships with houses like Bottega Veneta and Mugler, placing her at an easy intersection of nightlife and fashion without feeling ornamental to either. Her touring has steadily stretched outward. Two Australia tours, an Asia run across China, Hong Kong and Thailand, club dates in New York and Chicago, and most recently a first run through Latin America, with stops during Carnaval in Brazil, Buenos Aires, and a self-curated Hoe__mies party in Lima. Through Hoe__mies, she has also built a network of nights promoting shows across Tokyo, Melbourne, London, Glasgow, Paris, Lisbon, Barcelona, Amsterdam and Brussels, and connecting local scenes through collaboration, friendship and a shared sense of intent.Recently at Renate, OXI, Tresor / Globus · often with Mobilegirl, Bad Puppy, Saint Nia, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
Key Clef is a Berlin-based, Italian Dj and producer with a strong passion for analog instruments, founder of the label Ipnotica Erotica. After experiencing the last years of the flourishing rave scene in Rome and accomplishing a degree in sound engineering her creative process evolved into different directions from club music, to performance art and electro-acoustics. In 2013 she released her first digital EP followed by releases on Love Blast, KKY, MinimalRome, BlackWater, DelirioRec e Mitten. In her own world music is a continuous dialogue between styles and hybridization. Her music productions as well as her live performances include synth, drum machines, and analog effects reflecting her ethereal trajectory while her Dj sets show the full prism of her music taste and knowledge of the dance floor. Key Clef sound doesn’t hit on the surface instead aims to channel emotions and contact between her music and the listener.Their RA profile lists MinimalRome, Trick Track Records, Love Blast, Blackwater Label and 4 more.Recently at arkaoda Berlin, Giri, Tresor / Globus
