the whole biography
Sissies of Mercy is the back-to-back collaboration between longtime best-friends sam & austen. Born out of their love for dancing together, their sound as a duo balances playful nostalgia and raunchy darkness to command a sweaty dancefloor. Weaving together diva-fueled house, sparkly 80's pop, nasty acid, and cheeky electro, Sissies' sets create shared moments of freedom and transcendent joy fueled by love and light.Recently at House of Yes, Gabriela, Elsewhere · often with Volvox, G I N A, Kim Anh, none of them here that night
“Electric is the only way to describe Andi’s sets.”

the whole biography
Electric is the only way to describe Andi’s sets. The NYC-based DJ, producer, and SYNTHICIDE label/party boss constructs a dynamic and intoxicating flow that’s always palpable between the walls of the foggy, neon-lit dancefloor. Parts sleaze and sultry, Andi’s aesthetic is body music based, thriving on the delivery of the groove and the bombastic highs of a track’s apex. As a devotee of distinct sounds such as EBM, new beat, Italo, freestyle and housey 90s elements, her sets reflect her deep vinyl collection: diverse, yet focused, and completely one-of-a-kind. Her own productions aim to challenge the expectations within the confines of traditionally masculine dance genres. With bassline-heavy grooves and a conceptual emphasis on storytelling with samples taken from long-forgotten erotic thrillers and seedy sci-fi films, Andi adds a wry yet delicate touch to machine music. As the boss of SYNTHICIDE—the internationally known party, label and event series—Andi has cultivated the dark underground scene for over a decade in Brooklyn. SYNTHICIDE started at the notorious club in Bushwick, Bossa Nova Civic Club, where the party still holds a monthly residency. Additionally, Andi is a resident at The Lot Radio and NYC’s Gabriela.EBM on 13, Techno on 9, Industrial on 7 and New Beat on 5. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on Eskimo Recordings (2), Dischi Autunno (1) and Surface Reality Records (1); their RA profile also lists Mannequin, aufnahme + wiedergabe, Mecanica, Synthicide and 1 more. labels on their catalogued releases and on their RA profileRecently at House of Yes, Gabriela, Le Bain · often with Facets, Rok One, Danny White, none of them here that night

Arvin T’s sound is a vast, rhythmic vocabulary that navigates the spectrum of emotions. He is a resident at Brooklyn club Gabriela and a frequent collaborator with the renown dark dance label/party Synthicide. Arvin can also be found in rotation in New York City's vibrant club scene including regular appearances at Basement, Good Room, and Paragon; with a formidable international presence to match. His production navigates high-energy and bouncy progressive, while grounding those movements in the textures of wave, 90s house, and trance-oriented atmospheres. This versatile output has garnered support across the global circuit, anchored by releases on the Dutch imprint Return To Forever, alongside New York’s own E-Missions Recordings and Magic City.House on 1 and Techno on 1. styles on their catalogued releasesTheir RA profile lists E-Missions and Magic City.Recently at Love's Club, Gabriela, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with Sharlese, Jordan Nocturne, Saia, none of them here that night
