Born in Istanbul, Turkey to musically inclined parents, Gio Gulez moved to New York in 2002 and in the past couple of years he has been the icing on the cake in the New York techno scene in such roles as a DJ, promoter and nightclub manager. Gio has played alongside the likes of DJ Three, Guido Schneider, Audiofly to name just a few and since 2005 he has been throwing and promoting some memorable parties in the East Village of New York. Music has always been a part of Gio’s life. He started playing guitar at the age of 14 and like many adolescent boys his age his impetus for picking up the guitar was to simply pick up girls. But as his love for music (and his pick-up skills) blossomed, music became an increasingly important part of his life in it of itself. He started playing the piano at the age of 16 and at the age of 20, Gio began taking opera voice lessons. While growing up, Gio was heavily influenced by such artists as Guns & Roses, Metallica, The Cure, Depeche Mode and New Order. At the age of 23, Gio played electronic music on the decks for the first time and his love of synthesizers, drum machines and sequencers was born. Gio started out playing classical house but as he started listening to such DJ’s as Richie Hawtin and Gaiser, his style of music shifted from classical house to minimal. Gio started producing tracks a few years ago and his style can be currently classified as Deep Tech and Groovy Instrumental Dubby Bass. He likes to take it slowly to ensure every beat resonates in the hearts of listeners and make people feel more gravity. Gio predicts that electronic music will have a bigger influence in all genres of music and that electronic music will become a more intellectual pursuit that will have an impact on all aspects of people’s lives not unlike hip hop 30 years ago. Stay tuned for upcoming gigs and releases from Gio Gulez.Recently at Outer Heaven, Apollo Studio · often with Todd Fatjo, Giovani, Derrik Muñoz, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Born in Argentina, October 27th, 2004. Raised in Miami. Currently residing in NYC. Since discovering electronic music at the age of 13, Nico Noir has spent years developing a deep understanding of the culture, sound, and craft behind the music. What began with an early fascination for DJs and experimentation with online DJ softwares evolved into a dedicated pursuit of house and techno. Following his move to New York City in 2023, immersion in the city's renowned underground scene further shaped his artistic direction. Through continuous learning, working in the industry, and countless nights taking part of the dance floor as an attendee and DJ, Nico has cultivated a sound that is both deeply personal and distinctly his own. Nico's sound is forward-thinking, dark, and dub-influenced, rooted in minimal structures, textured sound design, and expansive atmospheric depth. His approach draws inspiration from artists such as Jane Fitz, Delta Funktionen, Marcel Dettmann, Biosphere, Radiohead, Malin Genie, and Nina Kraviz blending raw energy with experimental and electronic influences. The result is a sound focused on tension, space, and progressive movement. Notable appearances include sets at leading venues such as Outer Heaven, Mad Radio, Green Room, Apollo Studio, Bul Bul Berlin and 1-800 Lucky, further establishing his presence within the underground circuit. As the founder and curator behind Nocturna, Nico has focused on creating spaces where music and atmosphere converge. Through a dedication to thoughtful programming and a commitment to underground culture, he has helped establish Nocturna as a platform for forward-thinking electronic music.Recently at MAD Radio NYC, Outer Heaven, Apollo Studio · often with Yochanan, Ani Be, Jeny Michelle, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Born in beats, raised on rhythm. ROLO's journey into music began as a teenage guitarist and vocalist fronting bands at 15. But it was behind the decks where he truly found his groove—sparked by Paul Oakenfold’s legendary Creamfields 2003 set. Since graduating from NYC’s Dubspot School of Music Production in 2015, ROLO has incorporated production craftsmanship with an instinct for unforgettable dance floor moments. His sound is a kinetic blend of hypnotic drum grooves, vocal-driven melodies, and raw underground energy—drawing inspiration from rhythm-driven deep house, Romanian minimal techno, and breakbeat textures. From NYC spots like Rebecca's Bar, McCarren Parkhouse, and The Dirty Library to venues in India, ROLO brings the heat—delivering sets that move bodies and engage minds.Recently at The Local NY, Dada, MAD Radio NYC · often with Joverine, Alex Raouf, Pablo Flor, none of them here that night
