Some nights are booked. This one is curated.

On October 9 at Kreuzwerk, we celebrate femininity and FLINTA voices across our scene, from the artists behind the decks to the passionate people keeping the show up and running in the background.

The lineup has been carefully curated with the dancers in mind. Every artist has been selected for their distinct sound and the role they play in the flow of the night, creating a seamless journey from the first record to the last. From the moment dancers step onto the floor, they can expect a journey that flows naturally through different shades of sound and intensity, creating an intoxicating dancefloor experience that carries them through the entire night.

Spain’s Laia will showcase her carefully selected sounds that bridge the warmth of house and the echoes of Detroit techno and more, while Lyza will bring her hypnotic and driving techno sound, a distinctive artistic vision that has earned her recognition across the underground scene, including appearances at Berghain.

Adding a special twist to the format, the night’s curators, Carmen Electro and BUTZ, will open the event with a house B2B set and return to close the night together in different shades of techno.

We’re excited to present this unique approach to curation and share a night built around connection, flow and the dancers of Berlin.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Blending the raw energy of mid-’90s club sounds with the finest modern groove, her sets are playful, dynamic, and full of energy - a powerhouse of rhythm and emotion where nostalgia and innovation dance as one. Playing both vinyl and digital, BUTZ embraces the best of both worlds, using each medium intuitively to shape the moment. Driven by instinct and the crowd’s pulse, she creates atmospheres that are both physical and intimate - translating emotion into motion. Her sets speak their own language: deeply connected to the now, warm, and unafraid to surprise.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Carmen Electro is a project by a Finnish artist whose DJ sets and productions move fluidly through edges of house, techno, and driving club music. Rooted in a love for vinyl and shaped by years spent immersed in underground dance floors, her sets balance precision with intuition, drawing dancers into a primalistic journey that is both emotionally charged and rhythmically compelling. Known for weaving together driving grooves, atmospheric textures, and unexpected moments of tension and release, Carmen approaches DJing as a form of storytelling. Rather than chasing trends, she focuses on creating a sense of connection: between records, between bodies on the dance floor, and between the listener and herself. Her selections reflect a fascination with the transformative power of nightlife and the ways in which music can blur the boundaries between introspection and collective experience. Carmen’s work of exploring club culture as a space for ritual, self-discovery, and belonging extends outside the DJ booth. Through ongoing field research, productions, event organizing and her KUJE Records label initiatives, she is committed to nurturing communities that celebrate curiosity, authenticity, and the freedom to explore identity through sound. She’s a local resident at Berlin's infamous Tresor club as well as with the Selected Berlin collective.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Lyza, better known for the DJ duo Lyric, was born and grew up in Hanover. Today she lives in Berlin, where she has not only honed her artistic skills, she has also developed a strong connection to the city's vibrant music scene, which continually inspires and drives her to expand her boundaries and reach new artistic heights even as a solo artist to reach. Her journey began in the clubs of her hometown of Hanover, where she became enthusiastic about the techno scene early on. From hypnotic melodies to pulsating rhythms, she developed a unique ability to transform her sets into captivating stories that captivate dancers. With her partner Ericson, she founded the successful DJ duo Lyric in 2019, under which they have already created some captivating productions and achieved successful gigs across Europe.
