j@pluralartistmanagement.com Bapari is a musical force known for their heady dance tracks, cheekily disruptive pop edits, and hard-hitting DJ sets that blend techno, jungle, garage, club, hip-hop, and IDM in unexpected ways. A Grammy-award winning producer for their work on Eusexua by FKA twig's, Bapari pushes experimentation within electronic music to the edge, exploring all outcomes, from unique underground club tracks to evocative sonic landscapes. Bapari’s most recent project “Evermore” (Halcyon Veil, 2025) saw them pick up the mic and live guitar, featuring Ari’s hauntingly original vocals for the first time while exploring ‘90s influences of shoegaze, trip hop, and R&B. Born in Los Angeles to Haitian immigrants, Bapari found their way into music as a DJ in downtown LA’s underground party scene in the mid-2010s. Since then, They have released four EPs; collaborated with FKA Twigs, Eartheater, Kelsey Lu, Lolahol, and more; opened for Steve Lacy in Australia and Japan; and toured extensively as a DJ in North America, Europe, and Asia. Their work has been featured in DJ mag, Mixmag, Highsnobiety, Interview, Flaunt, Dancewax, and Resident Advisor, which named their 2021 track “Daybreak” a best-of-the-year. Touring highlights include headlining Boiler Room five times; festival appearances at Sonic Acts, Dweller, and Primavera; museum shows at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (London) and MoCA (Los Angeles); and club nights at Knockdown Center (NYC), Tresor (Berlin), Parkingstone (Paris), Mitsuki (Tokyo), Le Fag (Melbourne), Spiritual Sauna (Milan), TUNNEL (LA), and many more. Bapari has shared lineups with artists like Shygirl, Yves Tumor, LSDXOXO, and horsegiirL. Their music has been featured in campaigns for the fashion brands YSL Beauty, Melissa Shoes, I.AM.GIA, Barragán, Marshall Columbia, and Wildfang; the smart ring company Oura; and the NFT platform Foundation. They have created soundtracks for designers No Sesso and Helena Eisenhart for New York Fashion Week presentationsAvantgarde on 3, Techno on 3, Alt-Pop on 2 and Dance-pop on 2. styles on their catalogued releasesTheir RA profile lists Halcyon Veil and Naafi.Recently at Paragon, Bossa Nova Civic Club, Market Hotel · often with Miss Parker, Sevyn 0000, Memphy, none of them here that night

Vesolo is the alias of the artist, DJ, producer and vocalist, Solo Matelau. Known for their blending of a highly contrasting selection, Vesolo creates an atmosphere unlike any other on the dance floor. Beginning their artistic career in New York City, Vesolo made an enigmatic name for themself playing as a live solo act at staple underground clubs such as Spectrum, HECK, and Secret Project Robot- eventually pursuing DJing and playing at nightclubs such as Knockdown Center, Nowadays and Paragon. Their sets have attracted attention from around the world and playing recently at Warsaw's queer rave 'Kem' and Paris's elusive 'Zhona' and with an upcoming Spanish tour playing at the iconic Razzmatazz and in Madrid at Skin the club. Musically they draw from their extensive classical music background, bringing a new take on where widely different genres of music can unite- techno meets opera, ambient meets house, metal meets electro. Their style is packed with energy and nostalgia, often quite dark but always experimental, bringing the listener on a journey from darkness to total bliss. Vesolo is dedicated to surprising their listener, and pushing their sets to be harder and harder to define.often with @newagetension, SWIMMIE, Subcultures, none of them here that night
