their own biography
the whole biography
NDRX is a Georgian electronic music scene activist and resident DJ of renowned techno club BASSIANI. The journey of a compassionate defender of club culture’s true values starts back in the mid-2000s, when, joined by teenage peers, he starts throwing impromptu raves in the streets of Tbilisi. "We Need More Clubs in Georgia'' becomes a motto of then-newbie young DJs, who were greeted by clumsy gazes and disdain by the passers-by. Nevertheless, the crave for dancing and playing music encouraged them to start throwing parties during the times when not much was happening in the city. Following years sees enthusiastic NDRX founding Stare at DJ (2012-2015), a music series which contributed to the development of the local scene for years. His next venture, 11TH Floor (2015) aimed to unite the group of like-minded electronic music artists. "Other artists joined me on the 11th floor, and something like a commune was created." NDRX’s dedication to the DJ school has encouraged a staggering wave of new DJs and producers, who fill the clubs both home and worldwide nowadays. Since 2016, NDRX proudly joins BASSIANI, a prominent techno institution which revolutionized Georgian club culture and left its mark on the electronic music movements globally. Serving as an underground basis for resistant and subversive youth culture, BASSIANI was notoriously raided by the state armed forces in 2018, prompting tens of thousands of dancers to take to the streets in protest. NDRX, no stranger to street raves, helmed the boisterous task of playing for the protest crowd joined by the artists under the new motto, "We Dance Together, We Fight Together." The state stepped back, and the club eventually reopened next weekend. In the last couple of years, NDRX stands as an embraced guest of one of the most celebrated dancefloors worldwide: Berlin’s Berghain, Amsterdam’s ADE, De School and Vault Sessions; Exit Festival Serbia; Sonar Barcelona; Basement NYC; ODD São Paulo; Fast Forward Copenhagen; Robert Johnson Frankfurt; and Kremwerk Seattle, to name a few; a frisky explorer of unapologetic queer collectives Herrensauna (Berlin); Spielraum (Amsterdam); and Tbilisi’s own Horoom Nights. Focusing solely on DJing, NDRX’s sets bring a scrutinizingly selected and masterfully put-together experience with technical prowess from his spectacular music collection. His sets create the unyielding spirit of the dancefloor, a gutsy passion that makes him the tour de force of the Georgian electronic music scene.Last at BASEMENT in Apr · often with The Carry Nation, Newa, ROBUS, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Brooklyn-based DJ and producer Clarisa Kimskii has cemented her musical footprint on the borough since moving back in 2022. Through a palpable blend of psychedelic and driving techno, Clarisa’s approach to the genre is deeply idiosyncratic - an assemblage of both timeless and modern grooves. As a producer, Clarisa has contributed to a handful of respected labels (Monday Off, Dusk & Haze, Mysteries of the Deep, etc.) within her sonic niche, but it’s through her own label L.A.G where the ethos of her sound truly takes form - a detailed variation of propulsive and atmospheric soundscapes. Clarisa is deeply rooted in the techno subculture’s underground, and in early 2022 - the 20+ year veteran was named resident DJ of the Brooklyn-based, queer party Merge. Through her former residency at Merge and regular appearances at the city’s premiere institutions in BASEMENT Nowadays and Bossa Nova Civic Club Clarisa’s prestige is undeniably felt. Her pure, yet passionate approach to DJing has graced the decks of memorable nights at international institutions in Berlin's Berghain, Tbilisi's Khidi, and at notably iconic parties in Wrecked, Club Toilet, and The Bunker NY. Recent festival appearances at Taiwan’s Organik Festival and North America’s Honcho Campout, Sustain-Release, Whole Festival , Draaimolen and The Great Beyond have only elevated her reputation as a force within those respective communities. The saga continues with juicy bits on the horizon.Industrial on 1, Techno on 1, Acid on 1 and Minimal Techno on 1. styles on their catalogued releasesTheir RA profile lists L.A.G., Monday Off, On Board Music, Gradient and 3 more.Recently at Bossa Nova Civic Club, BASEMENT · often with Ne/Re/A, Berghain, Ron Like Hell, none of them here that night
