    the whole biography
    The Bay area native is an electronic music pariah who enjoys disintegrating and destroying dance music tropes through bizarre and wonderful sound potions. Frequent collaborator of Dark Entries records, he released his debut LP “Shaytoon” through their imprint in 2020. His DJ sets can range from off-kilter house and psychedelic techno, to haute electro, aphrodisiac acid and freaky jakbeat music. In late 2017 he began performing live PA sets, sonically ranging from potent drum cocktails to psychedelic and oxygenated soundscapes. Sepehr is the label head of Shaytoon Records, an imprint focused on Middle Eastern underground electronic music.

    Amelia Holt, is one of Brooklyn’s most distinctive, interesting selectors With a unique approach to rhythm, Holt crafts DJ sets which fuse percussive rhythms with electronic beats, transforming any dancefloor into a culture-bending, otherworldly experience. One may hear her play broken beats, deep high octane, fine and elegant dance, alt techno, sharp electro, and delusional krautrock – sometimes all in the same night. Amelia holds a residency at The Lot Radio and has played in the best of NYC’s venues including Good Room, Nowadays & Bossa Nova Civic Club & festivals, Sustain-Release & Dripping. Outside the US, she’s brought her sound to Mexico City, Berlin, Munich, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Madrid and many more.
