    the whole biography
    Asha Jasz, a Polish-born vinyl enthusiast now based in Brooklyn, NY, has been passionate about music from a young age. A dedicated digger with an ever-growing collection of records, her infectious smile and vibrant energy light up dance floors wherever she plays. Asha’s sets take listeners on a journey through sound, influenced by the European music scene she grew up with, and seamlessly blended with newly discovered vinyl treasures from record shops around the globe. Her selections span underground house, techno, electro, minimal, and timeless classics, creating a sonic journey that bridges the past, present, and future. Asha also has a deep love for ambient and downtempo records, which she occasionally weaves into her performances for a unique touch. In addition to her DJing, Asha plays an integral role in Brooklyn Sway, a vinyl-only music label, and is a co-founder of Freshly Pressed, a music collective and event series focused on raising funds for music-oriented nonprofit organizations in the New York City area.

    “Born in New York, Jared Maharaj has built his reputation in the city's underground on instinct over formula.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Born in New York, Jared Maharaj has built his reputation in the city's underground on instinct over formula. His sets are anchored by deep, driving basslines and move restlessly between warm, floor-ready house and hypnotic, dubbed-out techno — always chasing the feeling of the room rather than a fixed destination. That refusal to be pinned down has earned him spots alongside international talents like Youandewan, Boris Werner, and Giammarco Orsini, and collaborations with some of New York's most respected promoters and venues including Golden Record, Vigilante, Signal, and 333 Stagg. A residency with Ibiza Stardust Radio has extended that reach further. Beyond the decks, he co-runs E'Klektik, a party championing range across house and techno — rooted in a shared musical lineage stretching back to New York's earliest dance music days.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Connie Yin has been a major contributor to New York City’s underground electronic scene for almost 20 years. With a deep fluid mix of forward thinking 4/4 styles and a defined rhythmic sensibility that flows from her alter egos as a thumping rock drummer and newbie bass player, Connie is a steady crowd favorite and an accomplished pro who always brings the goods. Whether it is as resident DJ for ReSolute, one of the world’s hottest itinerant underground parties, or on the road touring from Brazil to Dubai, Connie’s aptitude and vigorous devotion to her craft have earned her turns alongside a litany of techno’s best. Connie uses her own success to inspire others to enter the world of DJing. To date she has privately trained 15 students. Connie has been producing electronic music since 2009, under the ‘Constar’ moniker as well as Connie Yin, with a dozen releases available digitally and on vinyl, under labels such as Bedrock Records. Currently, she is producing with long time friend Karina Chaczabian as C&K, with recent vinyl releases; and J Gabriel, on various projects. Connie’s love for music spans beyond electronic music; for the last 20 years, Connie has always been involved with at least one band at all times. Current live music projects include songwriting and drumming with post punk band Jilted Lover; playing bass guitar with rock/punk band Bricklip; creating techno synthpop in synth & machine heavy band Chic Choc; and playing keyboards and drums in Bover Cand - an 80s cover band....and also making music videos, her newfound passion. Connie also enjoys romantic strolls on the beach, candlelit dinners, and cuddling.
    Their RA profile lists Bedrock Records, Airdrop Records, NOSI Music, Jyre Records and 3 more.
