“Amanda’s sets change people.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Amanda’s sets change people. They feel like they are flying, and love moves through their bodies in waves. She plays with time like an alchemist, stretching it, deconstructing it, rebuilding until the floor becomes somewhere else entirely. Particularly known for her closing sets and all-nighters, she understands how a night breathes, how to read the arc of hours and bring a crowd to exactly where they need to land. Shaped by the mechanical soul of Detroit and the fractured textures of UK sounds, her music translates into deep, driving, dubby and hypnotic techno, extending into sassy, rolling house. The way she assembles a set carries that same instinct as sampling culture, lifting, layering, recontextualising until something new and unrepeatable takes shape, but still keeping the unrelenting continuous groove as the lead of her ceremonial sounds. What you hear is a language built from tribalistic percussion, layered vocals, and soundscapes that move between the earthly and the galactic, cinematic in texture, like transmissions arriving from just beyond the visible. She moves between ethereal stillness and raw kinetic force, between grounding and flight, holding space for both surrender and elevation. Over the years she has run a record label, a booking agency, and her own party, building scenes, not just playing them. That history of community-making lives on in how she moves through the world: collaborating deeply with artists wherever she plays, never a passing presence, always part of the connective tissue. Today that same energy goes into mentoring emerging talent, bringing together technical rigour and a holistic, intuitive approach to the craft. Berlin-based and South American at her roots, Mussi built her career across her home countries Brazil and Paraguay before planting herself at the heart of the global electronic music world. She has been performing on Berghain’s main floor for years, and has carried her practice further across São Paulo, Asunción, Amsterdam, and New York, continuing to tour widely across Europe and into Asia.Their RA profile lists 24 Hours Records, PG TUNE, Massa Records, Unterwegs and 3 more.Recently at BASEMENT · often with Berghain, nd_baumecker, Norman Nodge, none of them here that night

Defined by a technically-deft skill set (Resident Advisor recently proclaimed: “Now this is how you mix techno”) Rachel Noon is a fearless and uncompromising presence both behind the decks and on the dancefloor. Despite her rising European acclaim and recent appointment as resident DJ of Pornceptual, Noon attributes her significant career strides to her hometown of NYC and to Brooklyn's inspiring underground queer scene. Active as both artist and raver there, she successfully fostered a vibrant community of friends and like-minded peers. This community gave rise to her roaming event series LARGE MARGE which has since expanded internationally, with exciting plans ahead. Now from her home-turf Berlin, Noon has co-founded the intimate queer party series mp3, which has rapidly gained popularity in just two short years. If you ask Noon, her most exciting artistic initiative is currently going down inside the studio; she and her friend Steffen Dix have teamed up to form Self Care Starter Pack (or simply, SCSP), a production and live performance duo. Together they have cultivated a process-driven practice whose work takes a nose-dive towards hardware-only experimentation and the integration of optics into performance. Their first single was already released on the mighty Mala Junta x Amniote Editions compilation, and the duo debuted their live set in the fall of 2023 in Berlin. Rachel Noon, a true dancefloor devotee, has been hailed "equal parts DJ and rave spirit."Their RA profile lists Fast Forward Productions.Recently at Camp Kennybrook, Nowadays · often with Carly Zeng, Mike Servito, CRYME, none of them here that night
“Dee Diggs is a DJ, music producer, and creative multi-hyphenate based in Brooklyn, NY.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Dee Diggs is a DJ, music producer, and creative multi-hyphenate based in Brooklyn, NY. She is unapologetically black, queer, and a lifelong student of the tenets of House Music. Every single set by this connoisseur feels like a celebration – a celebration of club culture, of queerness, of community, of house and techno, and of house and techno's Black and Queer American innovators. Her energetic, yet deep approach to DJing has seen this Boston to Brooklyn transplant first garnering attention in the queer party scene of NYC and now lighting up dancefloors all over the world with regular European and international tours. Her aim has always been to contribute & sustain more spaces where marginalized groups are valued and thanked by name for their contributions to humanity. Thank the ORIGINAL Black innovators of House & Techno! Thank you, Disco and Ballroom Queens & Queers and Club Kids alike for the theatrics & fanfare of nightlife as we know it! There are homages to these origins alluded to in all things 'Dee Diggs', from the aesthetics to the sharing of the referential and varied tracks that fill her most noteworthy mixes, to her own original music! She’s known for releasing standout mixes for the likes of Daisychain, Honcho, and Dekmantel over the past couple of years. Her musical adventures spanning all possible genres, the common denominator here is Dee Diggs’ unrivaled taste. Her sound cuts an arch through dance music’s past and present to convey an interesting melding of Dee’s signature sounds: lyrical storied tracks, sensual club edits, soulful realness, sneaky grooves, passionate thumpers, and nostalgic endings. Her eponymous party, House of Diggs debuted in February 2020 to stir and settle the hearts of all the lovers of house, funk, soul, disco, and R&B in Brooklyn, before the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent club closings curtailed that momentum for 1.5 years. However, 2021, found her making strides again when she resumed curating House of Diggs as a semi-regular event series at Jupiter Disco, a rotary-focused intimate dance floor in Bushwick before her touring DJ schedule ramped up intensely. She currently holds and curates a seasonal DJ residency at a hi-fi nightclub in Gowanus, BK named Public Records. House of Diggs makes an appearance yearly around PRIDE to take over all 3 rooms of Public Records with Queer Imagination and Sonic Pleasure! Diggs' steady rise continues as she steps in to headline many club and festival lineups in 2023 and beyond. The east coast darling bares her soul on these decks — when you hear her, you feel her, and there is no mistaking the beauty and grit of this sound and this feeling!House on 6, Deep House on 4, Techno on 1 and Broken Beat on 1. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on toucan sounds (2), Dekmantel (1) and Find Your Own (1). labels on their catalogued releasesRecently at 100 Sutton Studios, H0L0, public records · often with Kilopatrah Jones, Nita Aviance, Ron Like Hell, none of them here that night
