    “Metaverde, also known as Marie Midori, is a Swedish-Japanese artist born and based in Berlin, Germany.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Metaverde, also known as Marie Midori, is a Swedish-Japanese artist born and based in Berlin, Germany. Influenced by their multicultural background, metaverde has explored a wide range of creative scenes throughout their life. From producing radio mixtapes in their childhood bedroom at the age of six, to busking around odd corners of the globe as a teenage scout leader, to dropping out of university to become a DJ in their early twenties—music has always been the strongest creative constant amid their ever-shifting interests. Fascinated by sound, the natural world, and the whimsical tales of Japanese anime, Marie enjoys digging between genres in search of pieces that defy easy categorization. The name metaverde—“between green”—directly references their given name Midori, which means “green” in Japanese. The color symbolizes balance, harmony, and nature, offering a refuge from the demands of modern life—values the artist aims to reflect in their sets.

  • Bell Towers

    Melbourne, Australia · 6 bookings since Jan 2026

    “Bell Towers is no stranger to the night.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Bell Towers is no stranger to the night. Moving curiously through dance music as a DJ and producer since 2009, BT has had four years of fun with cult Melbourne party Bamboo Musik (RIP); a successful relocation to the Northern Hemisphere (finally landing in Berlin) and gigs all over the world; a long-standing NTS residency and dibs on the name ‘Dance Music Show’; an ever-evolving discography; and credits for show music at New York, Paris, London and Shanghai Fashion Weeks that has further shaped his musical sensibility. BT’s DJ sets flirt with 4/4 basement house, flimsy synthetic pop, cheap and chic funk, and emotional sunrise burnouts. He connects the dots and gives the floor his own idiosyncratic interpretation of ‘dance music history’. You might’ve heard the tracks the first time around, but the point here is that you haven’t heard them played like this. In his eight years as an artist/producer — an output he self-describes as “file under 12”, intentionally laconic — BT has wriggled on various shades of house, 80s influenced pop and sample disco, released across respected labels like Public Possession, Internasjonal and Cocktail D’amore – the latter also being an infamous party series now serving his DJ skills as a regular new home. No two of his eleven singles sound the same, but there’s a long-play LP on the way that’ll make these styles stick like an entry stamp to your wrist on a Monday morning.
    Their RA profile lists Permanent Vacation, Internasjonal, Cocktail D'Amore, Unknown to the Unknown and 2 more.

    “FEMDELIC This Berlin DJ has built a solid reputation for coming to wreck your body.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    FEMDELIC This Berlin DJ has built a solid reputation for coming to wreck your body. Shaped by the energy of Berlin, where she grew up, Marisa aka Femdelic is a DJ with a deep love for boogie funk and disco. She started spinning vinyl in 2005 but fully dedicated herself to music after stepping away from dancing. With a Congolese father and German mother, music was always present in her life, and her african heritage played a key role in shaping her musical ear. A former breakdancer with a background in popping and b-boy culture, movement was her first language—until music took over completely. Her journey has taken her to many European countries, California, Kazakhstan, and South Africa. bringing her groove-infused sets to dancers and music lovers alike. Alongside her music career, Femdelic has always been engaged in social work, a commitment that runs parallel to her artistic path. Over the years, Femdelic has shared the stage with artists like Maurice Fulton, Nightmares on Wax, Shy One, Mendel, DJ Amir, DJ Koco aka Shimokita, Kyoto Jazz, and many more. Her selections have not only earned her a place among respected crate diggers but also led her to open for legends such as Cymande, George Clinton, L’Impératrice or Fatoumata Diawara. Whether warming up for icons or locking in a dance floor deep into the night, she brings the same dedication to groove, always crafting a journey through sound. With an ear tuned to the raw energy of funk and electro boogie, Femdelic curates selections that bridge the past and the future, always staying true to the rhythms that shaped her. Since last year, she has been hosting a monthly radio show on Refuge Worldwide, where she further explores other genres and invites guests to share their musical perspectives.

  • Philippa

    “Philippa is a Berlin-based DJ and producer crafting music from the deeper end of the house music spectrum with a strong musical identity and a clear dancefloor focus.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Philippa is a Berlin-based DJ and producer crafting music from the deeper end of the house music spectrum with a strong musical identity and a clear dancefloor focus. Originally from New Zealand, she has spent over a decade embedded in Berlin’s club culture, developing a reputation for expressive, emotionally resonant work. With nearly three decades behind the decks, Philippa brings a high level of experience and instinct to her sets. Her sound draws heavily from African-American musical traditions - house, soul and jazz - filtered through a contemporary European lens. The result is a style that feels both classic and forward-looking. Her productions reflect this ethos. Releases on respected labels including Freerange, Local Talk and SlothBoogie have positioned her within a lineage of artists dedicated to musical depth and longevity rather than trend-chasing. Her tracks often feature modal harmony, rolling basslines and understated but impactful arrangements. In recent years, her profile has expanded steadily, leading to performances at Panorama Bar, Glitterbox Ibiza and a growing number of bookings beyond Germany. Alongside her artist career, she holds a Master’s degree in Creative Music Production, where her research explored how sound can facilitate immersive and transcendent states, and teaches at Catalyst Berlin, supporting emerging artists in developing both craft and artistic identity.
    Their RA profile lists Freerange Records, Lazy Days Recordings, Local Talk, Razor-N-Tape and 2 more.

  • Toribio

    “A triple threat who lights up a room when behind the decks, in the studio and on stage, TORIBIO is a lifelong student of rhythm.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    A triple threat who lights up a room when behind the decks, in the studio and on stage, TORIBIO is a lifelong student of rhythm. Analyzing melodies and chords with a musician's ear, the Dominican-American artist blends different genres and moods in all his creative pursuits–DJing, producing, singing, playing instruments, and even his skills on the mic. Thanks to a childhood spent playing in church and jazz drumming, the Florida-born, New York-based act has a natural sense of harmony. He takes on the role of musical cartographer in his Afro-Latin band, Conclave, whose debut album was named one of Resident Advisor's best in 2021 and praised by both Rolling Stone and the New Yorker. Acting as the ensemble's bandlander, vocalist, and key instrumentalist, TORIBIO connects jazz, soul, and house from various cultures with style and grace. His speciality in sonic connections are especially tangible in his DJing. Gliding from pan-Latin club to raw electro to jazz to old-school funk, his sets are a masterclass in building energy and tension. Whether playing Boiler Room or clubs in Mexico City and Tokyo, he knows how to work a crowd with selections and transitions that are as precise as they are powerful. As a producer, his edits and originals are DJ weapons, rinsed by the likes of Gilles Peterson, Rich Medina, and Theo Parrish. His original tracks have been remixed by the likes of Louie Vega, Joe Claussell, and DJ Spinna. Known for fostering community through movement, his Brooklyn block parties (Public Service NYC) embody the spirit of New York’s dance culture while his newly formed imprint B.D.A. is quickly becoming known for bringing these vibes to vinyl. A TORIBIO show is a full-body experience— as he always says, “bring dat ass, and your feet will follow.”
