    the whole biography
    Serrian has been enmeshed in NYC nightlife since she was a teen - beginning as a promoter, finding her way to DJing and now also a talent buyer and curator. She has opened up for the likes of Phil Weeks, Museum of Love (DFA), and Russell E.L. Butler. She has played at notable venues in NYC such as Good Room, Elsewhere, Bossa Nova Civic Club, TBA, H0L0 and more. Some of her favorite gigs have been queer parties outside of New York, such as here&there (ATL) and Ladies on Wax (Philly), dance to forget (San Juan), and Bless This Mess (Chicago). Serrian can be heard playing classic house, acid house, techno, electro, new wave and cosmic/nu disco. Her variety of styles can be attributed to her booking background as she has operated as a promoter for fifteen years: supporting labels, parties, and collectives that mold and innovate the fabric of NYC nightlife. Her style is eclectic, emotive, and upbeat - she crafts a story, bringing nuance and surprises to every set.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Hailing from Rio de Janeiro and now firmly rooted in Brooklyn, Deo’Jorge is a multifaceted DJ, music producer, and event curator who has reshaped dance music communities across two continents. From his early days designing and directing art campaigns for major brands in Brazil to becoming the driving force behind influential nightlife movements, Deo’s journey has always been fueled by a relentless passion for authenticity and connection. In Brazil, Deo co-founded O/NDA, a groundbreaking free-party collective celebrated for reclaiming public spaces in Rio and creating a safe, inclusive environment at a massive scale. Initially a spontaneous birthday gathering, O/NDA quickly evolved into a vibrant cultural movement drawing thousands of people into the city’s underused and iconic locations. After moving to New York in 2017, Deo launched Hot Honey Sundays, initially a low-key, bring-your-own-beer event on the Greenpoint waterfront. It rapidly became one of Brooklyn’s favorite dance gatherings, attracting both legendary artists and emerging local talent. Over the past five years, Hot Honey Sundays has filled iconic venues including Knockdown Center, Brooklyn Mirage, and Elsewhere, returning now to Greenpoint in partnership with BK Backyard to reignite the neighborhood’s creative legacy. Known for his dynamic sets, Deo effortlessly weaves together deep house, soulful grooves, Latin rhythms, and sharp electronic textures, always keeping the energy fresh and dancefloors packed. His monthly residency at Dead Letter further solidifies his reputation as a tastemaker with a genuine connection to the crowd. Driven by community, diversity, and a sharp critique of commercialization in nightlife, Deo remains deeply committed to keeping music accessible, joyful, and meaningful. Whether behind the decks or orchestrating an event, Deo’Jorge creates experiences rooted in authenticity, spontaneity, and pure dancefloor magic.
