Shaped by formative years spent between Seoul, Milan, Berlin, and New York, her sound weaves raw textures, left-field rhythms, and immersive storytelling on the dance floor. Blending styles across eras, Melona uncovers hidden details in familiar tracks, weaving them into something that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking. She moves between shadow and shimmer, glossy surfaces and weighty bass, constantly evolving her sonic palette.Recently at Mood Ring, Jade, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with SIREN, Subcultures, Nightwork, none of them here that night

MacKincey, or Actual Angel, is no stranger to Brooklyn nightlife. From her roots in event organizing at Mood Ring, she understands a good party. She spins ethereal, house inspired tracks, borrowing inspiration from various styles blending dream, trance, and electro pop. Her sets are dynamic and evenly-paced, offering space to dance while leaving room to breath. She has previously played for venues such as Nickys Unisex and Knitting Factory, and you can catch her on weekends at Abe’s Pagoda!Recently at Mood Ring, Jade, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with SIREN, Nightwork, Certified Jesus Freak, none of them here that night
“With an affinity for subwoofers and devilish dub, Brutal Twink seeks to represent the full dialectic spectrum of bass music.”

the whole biography
With an affinity for subwoofers and devilish dub, Brutal Twink seeks to represent the full dialectic spectrum of bass music. He encapsulates the most literal sense of his name: boyish brutality. His selection is tongue in cheek and unmistakingly genre-bending — entrancing his listeners to truly embody his love of syncopated rhythm. He co-runs both, Life Of (@life.of.nyc) and Community Hole (@communityhole_nyc), and has played venues Jupiter Disco, Mood Ring, Bossa Nova, Jade Bar and RASH.Recently at Jade, Mood Ring, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with Subcultures, SWIMMIE, Nightwork, none of them here that night
