    the whole biography
    From main stages to underground, Berlin's YASO delivers electrifying sets that leave a long- lasting impression. True community favourite, YASO creates intoxicating soundscapes that blend UK basslines, baile funk and club beats, seamlessly blending R&B and rap samples with energetic rhythms. As a queer DJ with Kurdish roots, YASO uniquely prioritizes community and liberation, creating moments of genuine connection. Inspired by icons such as Halfqueen and UNiiQU3, YASO's bass-heavy compositions have created unforgettable dancefloors at festivals such as Garbicz, About You Pangea, Fusion Festival and Nation of Gondwana, as well as in iconic Berlin clubs such as OHM and Mensch Meier. For YASO, DJing is about breaking boundaries and weaving loose threads together. YASO doesn't just stay on the ground, she invites everyone to take o` together.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    VALENCIA, is a Colombian born, Brooklyn-based DJ fueled by an undying passion for all things dark, infectious and irresistibly groovy. Her journey kicked off the moment she stepped into her first techno show and witnessed just how energized a dance floor can truly get. From that night (..morning) on, she was in. Countless hours of dancing in warehouses and meticulously curating tracks later, VALENCIA now channels her deep connection with the music from inside the booth. Her sound is a mix of '90s underground vibes with a modern, 21st-century edge. Seamlessly blending nostalgic techno classics with modern day hard-hitting grooves, luring in both seasoned techno lovers and new listeners alike. Since moving to New York, VALENCIA’s love affair with the music has only intensified. In just a year, she’s graced the decks at venues like TBA, Club Eternal, Listen BK, Dead Letter No.9, Hellphone, and The End, while also playing exclusive pop-up events for Equinox and Padel Haus. This year she also launched SURREAL SESSIONS, her fast-rising party collective, dedicated to showcasing new talent to the Brooklyn scene. Simply put, VALENCIA doesn’t just live to dance - she thrives on making others move too. Catch her behind the decks, brining her unmistakable sound to a club near you.
