FRIED PLATANO dishes out a fusion of Latin musical flavors mixed with hard hitting, bass heavy electronic beats. Being of Caribbean descent, he amplifies melodies and vocals from his culture with the current sounds of his NYC nightlife experience. His Dominican upbringing makes him serve up fast rhythms of Dembow gone wild and transports you to a hot steamy tropical dance floor.Recently at H0L0, Paragon, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with Sterling Juan Diaz, Total XTC, ALEXIS DE LA ROSA, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
MPeach, aka Mariana Martín Capriles, is a Venezuelan multidisciplinary artist living in Brooklyn, NY. As a vocalist, producer, DJ, and audiovisual artist, she intertwines bass-heavy electronic sounds with rhythms rooted in traditional music. Having built a body of work that explores sounds of Latin America, the Caribbean, and Africa, as well as the possibilities of these sounds in new electronic territories, MPeach lives in the liminal borderlands between honoring folk sounds rooted in rich cultural histories and envisioning the future of Latin American sound. By engaging Venezuelan folkloric music as a tradition that remains alive and evolving, she challenges stagnant notions of authenticity by creating work that is responsive to the forces that shape its creators, listeners, and dancers, using electronic music as a vehicle for preserving tradition in the collective memory. She has toured across the United States, Latin America, and Europe. MPeach has released music with Dutty Artz, Abstractor, Nacional Records, Interscope, Majia, On the Corner, and her own imprint, Peachtwon. Her music appears in several official motion picture soundtracks, including films such as Piedra, Papel o Tijera and Skate Kitchen, as well as television series like HBO’s Betty. She has performed alongside Arca, Cardopusher also known as Safety Trance, DJ Babatr, DJ Yirvin, and Phran at the first-ever Boiler Room in Caracas, Venezuela.Recently at Superior Ingredients, Good Room, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with 8888, Kamikaze, Tambor y Caña, none of them here that night

Pauli Cakes is a New York born and based sound curator known for bringing people together and getting them moving. The DJ, community organizer, spirit raiser, performer, multi-faceted artist and founder of collectives DiSCAKES and xCAKES is an unmistakable figure in New York's underground queer rave scene.

Pauli believes that limitations and binaries can be transcended through music, communion and creative expression. Pauli’s sets have been described as a “break neck wonderland” and a "Spirit Raising Journey Through Sound". Their sound is a high energy, genre bending experience filled with sonic eclecticism and colorful sound adopted from their stomping grounds of NYC.Recently at Bossa Nova Civic Club, Market Hotel, Honey's · often with Xana 101, SKIN CONTACT, Vice, none of them here that night
