  the whole biography

  Soos is a DJ and producer from Mexico City that has been pushing a zany approach to dance music for over 17 years. Both his DJ and studio work explore the phenomenon of cross-genre narratives that blend anything from obscure dubby house to dreamy downtempo – a creative vehicle for an eclectic music palette where amusement and discovery rule over all other traditional story-telling. Via his studio work, the D.F. born producer traverses the musical universes of 1990’s and 2000’s nostalgia by re-contextualizing the retro sonic shades of latin club music, balearic-influenced soundscapes, and downtempo techno – landing him releases in acclaimed record labels like Japan’s Mule Music. Within a constant DJ agenda in Mexico spawning in clubs, festivals and one-off events, Soos has landed a handful of residencies that reflect his multifarious taste like the country-wide party series Sunday Sunday and Departameto. In addition to these residencies, the “Mundo Cute” artist perpetually presents international radio shows like NTS, Rinse.FM and Refuge Worldwide.

  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.
