their own biography
the whole biography
DJ City's first notable release came on Stockholm imprint Born Free in 2018. Previously he had been releasing small edition cassettes but it was this record "Teenage Sex Drive" that brought his music to larger audiences. By this time he had also recently become a resident DJ at Berlins infamous Cocktail d'Amore at Griessmuhle and was experiencing a renaissance in his djing as he got to know the collective and artists involved with the party. In 2020 he had a string of releases on Public Possession which since then has become the principal home of his music. With these releases he established his sound that departs from italo, synth pop and new wave, and through early Chicago style house music lands in what it sounds like today. He started doing vocals by himself and cultivated a type of world making that is present in most of his music still. Lately he has also been working with labels such as Live at Robert Johnson, Permanent Vacation, Uncanny Valley, Vitamina and Les Yeux Orange and at the same pace also been touring Europe, playing from Madrid to Stockholm.Their RA profile lists Permanent Vacation, Uncanny Valley, Cocktail D'Amore, Rat Life Records and 3 more.Recently at Crack Bellmer, Renate, Zur Klappe · often with La Schmock, Sofiia Zoloto, MVHY, none of them here that night

the whole biography
John Loveless is a DJ, radio host, writer and producer, whose unusual trip through alternative culture is defined by passion and perpetual motion. A lifelong immersion in music has helped define Loveless not only as a respected, instinctive club DJ, but a constant conduit for the creativity of others in the scene. Originally from the North West of England, Loveless’s long weekend in Berlin has since lasted a decade, where he maintains a unique position. As well as his own Hot Concept imprint and party series, Loveless is known for his creative work alongside Erol Alkan and Palms Trax on the labels Phantasy and CWPT, introducing diverse talent to record shelves, refining an instinct for music of rare character. This open-minded philosophy has also defined Loveless’s approach to radio, as heard across two long-running residencies in Berlin. His monthly ‘Display Resolution’ show has broadcast on Cashmere Radio since 2017, and will conclude in 2025 after one-hundred episodes, each blending house, techno, disco, dub, indie and experimental music with unfiltered curiosity. Since 2020, Loveless has been a fixture on Refuge Worldwide, the community-focused station where he has also established an occasional, anecdote-heavy residency with Palms Trax, and curated several takeovers. In unison with fellow Brit-turned-Berlin Gramrcy, the pair enjoy a lockdown-born studio partnership, one that has expanded beyond remixes for Discovery Zone, W.H. Lung and Real Lies, to a lightning bolt of an original production in ‘Highdive’. Released on Phantasy Sound in 2022, the track memorably anchored sets by DJs from 2ManyDjs and Peggy Gou, before soundtracking catwalks for Moschino and Hugo Boss. After a long search for suitably ludicrous sounds, further experiments are set to rattle bass bins soon. Having extensively contributed as a writer to The Guardian, CRACK and Bandcamp Daily as John Thorp, Loveless was responsible for both the introduction and a number of essays for ‘Techno is Boring’, a book of photography from Daniel Avery and Keffer. Humorous and introspective, earning compliments from Trainspotting author Irvine Welsh, the book was introduced by a European tour, including a transcendent back-to-back with Avery at Berlin’s ambient-oriented kwia, and an alternately thunderous appearance at FVTVR in Paris. Loveless has passed at various tempos through iconic nightlife institutions such as The White Hotel, Ohm, The Warehouse Project and Hang Dai. At Alkan’s request, his versatile ear broke down eras on 2020’s ‘A Psychedelic Sensibility’, a compilation blending highlights and obscurities from the history of Phantasy Sound, which was awarded Compilation of The Month by Groove Magazine. A sequel, ‘A Psychedelic Sensibility II: The Remixes’, followed in 2023. Following two compilations raising funds for charities Doctors Without Borders and Habibi.Works, Hot Concept continues to introduce like-minded underground talents like Teplice, Yr Lovely Dead Moon and Beigean, pairing their productions with boundary-free remixes from esoteric artists such as Peder Mannerfelt and aya.Their RA profile lists Phantasy Sound, CWPT and Hot Concept.Recently at Renate, Crack Bellmer, arkaoda Berlin · often with Frinda di Lanco, Cheriii, GREEN, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
Sara Miller is an Irish-born, Berlin-based DJ, producer and sound engineer. Drawing from the timeless pulse of 90s progressive and deep house, alongside the Balearic, Italo and acid sounds that helped shape it, her sets are high energy, groove-driven and euphoric. Astral melodies, rubbery basslines and soaring breaks form her palette, shaping fluid journeys that blur the line between reflection and abandon. Over more than a decade, she has become a trusted presence on Europe's most respected dance floors, from Panorama Bar, Robert Johnson and Tresor to Phonox, Badaboum, Macadam and Nitsa. Her natural ease behind the decks mirrors her skill in the studio, where she translates club energy into finely detailed, melodic productions. Her relationship with Munich label Permanent Vacation began with Orange Sea (2021) and has grown through her acclaimed Lunar Theory EP (2023), vinyl debut Cervo on Cracki Records (2024), and remixes for Permanent Vacation and Live at Robert Johnson. Oceanic Dream (2025), her second EP for Permanent Vacation, moves between dreamlike introspection and open-hearted euphoria. DJ Mag described her as "one of the rare alchemists who can push a tune to its emotional breaking point while also keeping it on the right side of cheesy." Resident Advisor called Lunar Theory "filled with melodies as complex as honeycomb" noting its low-end heft and idiosyncratic touch and "a reminder that just because you're going big doesn't mean you can't stay weird." In 2024, she was selected for the Detroit-Berlin Residency, spending two months at Submerge, headquarters of Underground Resistance. Collaborating with Detroit artist Shawescape Renegade on a hardware live show, she was immersed in a city built on resilience, innovation, and community, an experience that continues to shape how she thinks about music as a shared, sustaining force.Their RA profile lists Permanent Vacation, Live At Robert Johnson and Cracki Records.Recently at Kater, Berghain, Crack Bellmer · often with Sparkling Water Dreams, Alinka, ACID BOGEN, none of them here that night
