the whole biography
Alexander Kowalski is a Berlin-based electronic music artist, producer and live performer whose work connects the physical force of techno with depth, atmosphere and a distinct sense of musical authorship. Emerging from Berlin’s 1990s club culture, he built his reputation through hardware-driven production, a hands-on studio approach and a sound that bridges direct club impact with emotional detail. Kowalski’s first live performances took place in the late 1990s, including an early appearance at Tresor in 1997. Under the alias DisX3, he released his first records on Tresor Records before establishing himself under his own name with a series of influential releases on Heiko Laux’s Kanzleramt label. His debut album Echoes appeared in 2001, followed by Progress in 2002 and Response in 2003 - records that helped define his reputation for driving, detailed and atmospheric techno. Built around hardware instruments, live jams and a strong performance identity, Kowalski’s music has always carried a physical and immediate quality. Tracks such as “Speaker Attack”, “Belo Horizonte” and collaborations including “All I Got To Know” & “Hot Spot” with Raz Ohara became key moments in his catalogue, combining the directness of club music with a more personal, melodic and emotional language. I n 2006, Kowalski released Changes on PIAS, expanding his sound beyond the framework of his earlier Kanzleramt period. In 2009, he founded Damage Music Berlin, an artist-run label for carefully selected releases and a further expression of his independence, curatorial focus and commitment to artistic control. His 2018 album Cycles on MORD marked another important chapter and introduced an idea that now continues in a new form with the launch of his label of the same name. With the launch of his new label Cycles Music, Kowalski opens a focused contemporary phase of his work: rooted in techno, shaped by the club, but looking beyond function alone. The label brings together new productions, carefully curated reissues and a broader artistic vision dedicated to timeless electronic music - physical, atmospheric and unmistakably his own.Their RA profile lists PIAS, Cocoon Recordings, Factor City Records, Tresor and 6 more.Recently at Tresor / Globus, RSO.BERLIN, OXI · often with DINA, ROBUS, HEDDA, none of them here that night

This foundation allowed her to align her creative vision with technological precision. Preferring raw percussive elements, Viktoria crafts a signature sound that is atmospheric and brings tension. Her sonic identity is shaped by a steady, propulsive beat that captures the timeless aesthetic of techno.

“Hontas is a German DJ and curator based in Berlin, focused on rhythm-driven, narrative DJ sets.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Hontas is a German DJ and curator based in Berlin, focused on rhythm-driven, narrative DJ sets. Classically trained in piano and with a background in dance, her approach is shaped by timing, structure, and physical response to sound. Electronic music became a central focus in 2012 through Kassel’s underground scene, where an ear for atmosphere and pulse developed. After stepping behind the decks in 2015, she soon earned a residency at Kassel’s Club ARM. From early on, her sets were structured as continuous journeys, built with clear progression and attention to long-form flow. The sound is defined by hypnotic rhythmic frameworks, precise track selection, and controlled tension. Weighty basslines are combined with restrained melodic elements, using loops, layers, and gradual transitions to create depth without excess. Each element is chosen for its function within the overall structure of the set. In addition to DJ work, Hontas has hosted and curated events throughout Central Germany, contributing to the regional electronic music community. Since relocating to Berlin in 2022, appearances have included several established venues, with regular performances at RSO. The current focus remains on cohesive, functional sets centered on rhythm, continuity and atmosphere.Recently at AMT, Loone, KREUZWERK · often with SUMME, ROBUS, Vysion, none of them here that night
