Operating out of Toronto, Trailcam crafts dense and feral music shaped by fractured percussion and dub's dislocation. Her debut album, Drumlin Loop, released on Northern Electronics, serves as a weathered map of these sonic territories.Their RA profile lists Northern Electronics.Recently at Tresor / Globus, OHM · often with Anthony Linell, Evigt Mörker, Jin Synth, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Daniel Rincon has lived in a hundred different worlds, and he has built a utopia in each of them. The Colombia-born artist—better known as NAP—would hear the sounds of cumbia and merengue floating through his house, but he was interested in rougher stuff: punk, hardcore, no wave. In his childhood, Rincon’s music teacher told his mother that he had an ear better fitted for field artillery than music; when he was a teenager, Rincon’s family moved to Vancouver, and there, he found a way to weaponize that ear. He started going to no wave shows, and he’d DJ parties with busted equipment. It was punk in sound, but more importantly, in practice.Techno on 7, Ambient on 6, House on 6 and Downtempo on 3. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on Craigie Knowes (1), Delicate Records (2) (1) and Quern (1). labels on their catalogued releasesRecently at arkaoda Berlin, Crack Bellmer · often with Norm Talley, deep creep, Francis Harris, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Significant Other, a UK-born DJ, producer, and curator now based in Berlin, has carved out a distinctive space in the electronic music landscape with his emotionally resonant productions and genre-resistant style of DJing. Consistently operating at the fringes, his creative output is an at times chaotic fusion of the tough and more tender corners of modern dance music. Initially emerging from the Brooklyn underground scene, Significant Other co-founded the prolific NYC event series and record label Club Night Club, cutting his teeth as a covert curatorial presence behind-the-scenes of a new wave of late 2010s Brooklyn dance music. With sporadic releases appearing across a range of acclaimed UK labels, little artist information provided, he emerged from the shadows as an enigmatic figure within the ecosystem of off-kilter dance production. His debut album Residuum arrived via Manchester cult favorite YOUTH in 2021, representing a veiled departure from the club origins of the project. A ghostly, atmospheric full-length grounded in texture and stygian catharsis which revealed a different side to his sound, transposing the tension and release balancing act of dance music onto a listening geared LP format. In the interim years his sound and DJ sets alike have become even harder to define. His work seamlessly blends elements of ambient, dub, and rougher club sonics, creating immersive fugue-state listening experiences that are at once both introspective and dancefloor-ready. The consistently elusive nature of the project has imbued his long discography with a liminal quality, his production and live output alike forever skirting the margins of genre and utility. Over the years he has garnered a cult reputation for his slant on the skudgier, atmospheric ends of contemporary mood-driven electronic music. In 2024 he launched the record label and Berlin event series Pain Management, an anti-dancefloor outlet for outsider sounds spanning spoken word, hellish dub experimentation and avant-garde electronica; ‘body music for restless minds’.Their RA profile lists SPE:C, Youth, Well Street Records, Oscilla Sound and 1 more.Recently at Lark, Flutgraben, OHM · often with Buttechno, Matana Roberts, Klein, none of them here that night
