“peachlyfe is an artist of playful provocation.”
their own biography
the whole biography
peachlyfe is an artist of playful provocation. Blending psychoactive techno, swampy psy-trance, and alien acid, their DJ sets intentionally induce a state of sonic mindfuck, while their holistic live performances target transcendence. Transitioning through jazz music, composition, and the electric bass, peachlyfe rejected the rigidity of their formal conservatory training after finding freedom and empowerment in the culture and queer community of electronic music. Since then, the Fast Forward member and Endurance resident has become a mainstay within Copenhagen’s fast-growing techno scene, and earned an international following that’s seen them booked across 4 continents. Approaching production as a conceptual art form, their creative offerings are defined by innovation and irreverence. From the epic EP Medusa's Revenge to the playfully elemental Boi \_( ̄ ツ)_/ ̄EP (a sonic imagining of four transmasculine superheroes) to the sci-fi story that guides their full-length album Permission to Roam, released on Nene H’s UMAY. On top of this, peachlyfe’s extensive contributions to a wide array of compilations and remixes have established them as a ubiquitous presence in modern dance music. peachlyfe's alternate alias SOFT PXRN, released the EP Raver Equation on their own imprint PEACCH Records. While peachlyfe's music is fast-paced and high-energy, SOFT PXRN explores the deeper, more melodic realms of progressive house and trance-infused rave sounds.Their RA profile lists Lobster Theremin, Mama told ya, EXTRA ENERGY, Fast Forward Productions and 4 more.Recently at BASEMENT · often with Amanda Mussi, ROBUS, SUMME, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
After getting her start performing at underground poetry events in her hometown, she eventually moved on to playing live beat sets during open mic nights at one of KC's most pivotal queer nightlife institutions of the 21st century, the Uptown Arts Bar. Occasionally she'd wander upstairs to Niche, a 100-cap club with a legendary sound system known as the Meta HiFi. There she got her first taste of the sounds of the UK bass continuum and the LA beat scene, with its prominent figureheads like Flying Lotus, Ras G and Shlohmo. Ever the nomad, she would spend her mid-twenties traveling, flitting between cities like New York and LA and the mountainous terrain of the Colorado Rockies. At 26 years old, she left behind a stable career in psychotherapy to pursue her creative dreams. This would lead her back to Niche where a ravenous desire to evolve as an artist connected her with Peter Anthony, aka Coughman, who ran the independent KC collective and label, Intelligent Sound. Soon Anthony encouraged Zo and her friends Mazzy Mann and Lorelei Kretsinger to build a platform of their own. In October 2017, the three of them founded the UN/TUCK queer/trans collective and record label. Over the next two years, they tirelessly built UN/TUCK into an internationally recognized platform, releasing their own music and organizing shows and parties curated specifically for trans and queer people in Kansas City. Under the name BTRFLY, Zo produced her own LA-inspired beats and rapped over them in her sets. As she delved further into the realms of Chicago house, early 2000s UK dubstep, and the hybrid sounds of Hessle Audio, Hyperdub and Idle Hands, she discovered a profound love for DJing and a different kind of production. Now based in Brooklyn, she has made definitive creative statements in 2022, releasing her debut EP, Screw Cheek, on acclaimed UK club label, Scuffed Recordings, and a follow-up EP, Freak Shift, on Martyn's hallowed 3024 imprint, as well as a slew of national bookings at Bunker NY, Texture Detroit, Sole Rehab, clubs like Nowadays, Good Room and Kremwerk, festivals like Slingshot and Honcho Campout and many more on the horizon. It's clear that Zo has solidified her place as an emerging artist firmly in her own lane, with tracks that span the continuum of UK bass and North American techno and house, and mixes that seamlessly capture and defy her genres of interest, blending deep dark percussive bass and broken beat with blistering techno, psychedelic house, east coast club and more.Techno on 24, Bass Music on 22, Breaks on 17 and House on 17. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on Clasico Records (2) (1), Delusional Records (2) (1) and Grid (6) (1); their RA profile also lists Pineapple Records, 3024, Fever AM, Scuffed Recordings and 1 more. labels on their catalogued releases and on their RA profileRecently at public records, Bossa Nova Civic Club, Le Bain · often with Mui Mui, Sheepshead, Saia, none of them here that night
“Gigolo means Playboy, but the word originally derives from the ancient French "Gigole" which used to mean Dancing Woman.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Gigolo means Playboy, but the word originally derives from the ancient French "Gigole" which used to mean Dancing Woman. This makes DJ Gigola both, a dancing woman and a playboy. Where others see tension and contradiction, DJ Gigola sees a chance for creation. In her playful way of breaking down boundaries, she hits the Zeitgeist of a generation that continuously transforms and recontextualises seemingly fixed concepts and stereotypes. As a result, both her sets and productions are quint-essentially genre-fluid. Her critically acclaimed cutting edge releases take a hybrid approach, successfully blending boundaries between Dance and Pop music. On a night out, you might hear DJ Gigola mix Madonna out of an old Bonzai record and back into Surgeon all within 5 minutes. Her sets are enigmatic and reflect a natural sense of curiosity - eager to explore, she does not shy away from experimenting. As playful as DJ Gigola’s selection may seem, however, she rigorously weaves together seemingly disperse tracks with one common thread: rhythm. She experiences music primarily through the rhythmic structure emergent from patterns of percussion rather than layers of melodic harmonies. This deep understanding for rhythm and groove, combined with her multi-facetted knowledge of music and curious audacity to try new things makes DJ Gigola one of the most exciting DJs to experience on a dance floor.Their RA profile lists Public Possession, Live From Earth and Method 808.Recently at Knockdown Center, Paragon, H0L0 · often with Margo XS, MCR-T, Berghain, none of them here that night

Rooted between Brooklyn and Los Angeles, OZA is a DJ, producer, and founder of the acclaimed queer party and multimedia platform TUNNEL, cultivating a forward-facing sound and connecting emerging artists with the wider world. His sets skillfully fuse propulsive percussion and erotic techno tension with trance-laced rhythms and expansive electronic textures.

His performances span institutions such as Basement NY and FOLD London, as well as appearances at notable international festivals. With co-signs from Gucci, Lady Gaga, FKA twigs, and leading voices throughout the global underground, OZA’s world remains high-impact, high-frequency, and unmistakably his own.Recently at Bossa Nova Civic Club, Red Eye NY, 3 Dollar Bill · often with CEM, Sevyn 0000, Griffin Maxwell Brooks, none of them here that night
