their own biography
the whole biography
Living in Brooklyn by way of Karachi, Pakistan, Dynoman is widely credited as an instrumental figure in the formation and development of the Karachi underground and Pakistan’s electronic music scene. He has been producing electronic music under the Dynoman moniker since 2009, and co-founded Forever South, Pakistan’s first internationally recognized digital label, in 2012. Over the years, his sound has evolved alongside his lived experience, remaining rhythm-forward, percussion-driven, and rooted in movement. After relocating to New York in 2017, Dynoman founded Rare Frequency Transmissions, which he continues to co-run. He is a frequent presence in the Brooklyn underground and self-releases much of his work through Dynoman Music, showcasing a wide breadth of styles and approaches. When stepping into the booth, his sets are shaped by the moment rather than pre-planning, often unfolding without a fixed trajectory as he responds to the energy of the space and the room. In 2023, Dynoman co-founded Tarka, a project celebrating diaspora through artistic practice. In recent years, his work has increasingly explored rhythm, repetition, and shared states through sound, with live performances and recordings reflecting a deep engagement with percussion-led, future-facing approaches grounded in South Asian lineage.Experimental on 1. styles on their catalogued releasesTheir RA profile lists Rare Frequency Transmissions.Recently at Eavesdrop, Elsewhere, Silence Please · often with Bergsonist, Nabihah Iqbal, Ushka, none of them here that night

the whole biography
While Sevyn's calling for live instrumentation and musical arrangement has thrived, she has unanticipatedly embarked on her journey into the world of DJ'ing and established her name and footprint in musical spaces outside of her hometown, Washington DC. Sevyn is a producer, DJ, curator and founder of music platform and curatorial studio "Beautiful Noise" based in Brooklyn, NY. She seeks connections through music and her deep appreciation for culture and history radiates through narrative-driven mixes and productions. She centralizes story and narrative; genres are just chapters which, when taken together, are greater than the sum of their parts. Her energy on the dancefloor pulsates the same rhythm while weaving in and out of records from House gems to Jazz, Techno and Soul. Her commitment to music and sound has led her to opportunities in spaces outside of the club. She composed a piece for a film presented in the Alvin Ailey exhibit titled "Edges of Ailey", directed by Kya Lou and Josh Begley at The Whitney Museum in New York City. The birth of Beautiful Noise has expanded her role as a curator soundtracking The Getty Museum celebrating Black Visual Culture for the African American Art History Initiative. Her time as a DJ has brought her gigs internationally where she toured and opened for jazz musician Cktrl, played at the legendary Tresor in Berlin, London, Paris, Tokyo, Seoul and more. Whether playing in her stomping grounds or rocking dance floors overseas, Sevyn creates dance floor memories you'll want to replay again and again.Recently at Paragon, BASEMENT, public records · often with VARSHA, Honey Bun, Tlim Shug, none of them here that night
