Who they are
“Her artistic journey is a hypnotic dance, where vinyl-only sets have become her signature groove.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Her artistic journey is a hypnotic dance, where vinyl-only sets have become her signature groove. With relentless passion, she pushes the boundaries, fusing the nostalgia of the '90s with daring, modern soundscapes. In Shaleen's world, the pursuit of perfection is a constant beat. Her relentless quest for sonic mastery has led her to the analog realm, where she's fallen head over heels. A modular system now pulses at the core of her creative arsenal, forging the path towards electrifying live performances. Her global conquest is well underway, with iconic venues like Tresor Berlin, the enigmatic Säule at Berghain, and the pulsating E1 London bearing witness to her magnetic sets. She's graced stages from Link Bologna to Radion Amsterdam, leaving audiences electrified and craving more. As a resident of the transcendent "We Are Not Alone" events, Shaleen regularly casts her spell over Revier Südost Berlin. Her residency with Seelen. Records finds her a frequent guest at the revered Institut für Zukunft and the legendary Distillery Leipzig, solidifying her status as a techno shaman of the highest order. In 2020, she unveiled her debut EP in the heart of this techno tapestry, soon followed by releases on the trailblazing Turkish label Primus, known for its unwavering support of women's rights, and the pulsating streets of New York's Whirlwindtraxx. Shaleen's beats have even rallied for important causes, contributing tracks to Deestricted's fundraising compilation for Save Life in Ukraine and the latest "We Are Not Alone" compilation. But Shaleen's journey transcends the decks and studio. Her event series SURD stands as the vanguard of the first feminine/queer movement in West Germany's Ruhr-Area, an indomitable force since its inception in 2016 and still reverberating with defiant energy. And that's not all - Shaleen's audacious spirit knows no bounds. She's at the forefront of launching an interdisciplinary label project rooted in political activism, amplifying crucial causes and spreading awareness with every sonic wave. To her, techno isn't just music; it's a pilgrimage to the roots, a homage to its origins that must never be forgotten.Their RA profile lists SEELEN., Whirlwind Trax, Deestricted and Sektor Evolution \\ Revolution.often with GLOBUS, TRESOR, Xiorro, none of them here that night
