    the whole biography
    Born in Beijing and now based in NYC, Vivian has carved a niche in the global dance music scene with her high-energy sets and profound musical narratives. Vivian’s journey in music began amidst the backdrop of Tiananmen Square, inspiring a lifelong quest to express freedom and connection through sound. Her sets defy any single genre as she creates unconventional blends of rare vinyl treasures and innovative original productions. Her dynamic presence and versatility has propelled her to the top of the DJ scene, sharing stages with luminaries like Cassy, Danny Tenaglia, Seth Troxler, Juan Atkins, and David Morales, leaving audiences spellbound from Brooklyn to beyond. Vivian’s commitment extends beyond the DJ booth; she’s a pivotal figure in the Brooklyn Sway Label and a co-founder of Freshly Pressed, a music series that supports youth music programs. Join us in celebrating Vivian Wang, who dances to the beat of her own drum, leaving a trail of joy and liberation wherever she plays.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Texas-born and Brooklyn-based, Henry Chow has spent nearly three decades embedded in the underground, moving dance floors with raw, mood-driven techno and house. A lifelong crate digger, his sound leans heavy on tension, groove, and restraint—built for dark rooms and long nights. As a DJ, Chow’s reputation has carried him to international stages and key venues across the U.S., including regular appearances at The Great Beyond (US). In Houston, Chow co-founded Crossroads, then one of Texas’ longest-running dance parties. The series became a proving ground for uncompromising international and regional artists alongside deeply rooted local talent, helping shape a sustainable, late-night culture. After arriving in Brooklyn in 2017, Chow re-established Crossroads with a series of events at the now defunct TBA Brooklyn. Years later Chow teamed up with Dianna Loevner, Samuel FIsh, and Dyllon Young to help create the underground outfit Mizz Softee. In the studio, Chow first cut his teeth in the early 2000s, releasing an EP on Marco Carola's seminal techno imprint, Zenit. Followed by original and remixes on labels such as Genetic Recordings, Thoughtless Music, Harmonious Discord and Abiotic. Dug from the past and locked into the present, Henry Chow delivers music that’s physical and meant to be felt.
