the whole biography
ANICHE (pronounced "An-ee-sh") is an Indian-born, Brooklyn-based genre-agnostic DJ, producer, curator, and community builder blending Hindustani Classical roots with experimental club sounds into genre-fluid sets. His sets move like controlled chaos: joyful, unpredictable, charged with energy, bass, and moments that catch you off guard. He’s the founder of @finding.your.niche, known for events like EXTRA SPICY PLEASE and for the people, a substance-free, community-focused series. His sets have moved crowds at countless venues from Elsewhere to SILO to Meadows in New York City, and beyond, like San Francisco and Tokyo’s underground scene. A resident at Halfmoon Radio and Newtown Radio, ANICHE is known for high-energy, boundary-pushing sets rooted in intention and cultural influence. He also regularly uploads mixes to his YouTube channel, featuring unique locations: from a high-energy Halloween walking DJ set through the streets of NYC to a chill, jazzy session at the foot of Mt. Fuji in Japan.Recently at About Last Night, SILO, Caffeine Underground · often with ceviché, STEEN, KC, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
Petal Rose is a NY-native, Brooklyn-based DJ and producer just trying to figure their shit out. Born and raised by God-fearing Guyanese immigrants, music was never taken seriously unless it was in the context of the church. For lack of a better phrase, music became their god, and they’ve been a loyal worshiper ever since.Recently at Anything, Mood Ring, Rash · often with CMD+JAZMINE, BBYGRL, EEVEE, none of them here that night
“Jalpari is a NC-born Indian-American musician based in Brooklyn, NY.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Jalpari is a NC-born Indian-American musician based in Brooklyn, NY. While their artistic practice was sourced by the euphoric feeling of collective acoustic sound (orchestra), their artistry is currently sustained by the restorative nature of existing inside amplified sound. They were introduced to the transformative force of a proper sound system on dance floors in Hong Kong and Copenhagen, and moving to Brooklyn has opened their eyes to the deconstructive potential of a DJ set. Brooklyn’s rave ecosystem is teaching them that the DJ-2-Dancefloor energy circuit can recreate ancient forms of socializing that (nowadays) tend to only exist in the dark. Jalpari’s sets aim to activate this sacred space to give you something real you can blend into your journey when the lights turn on.Recently at The Living Gallery, Trans-Pecos, Jade · often with LTE, Booshie Mystik, Chainletter, none of them here that night
