Their sets are versatile yet discerning, featuring shimmery house, global bass, and deconstructed club, punctuated with bad bitch rap and layers of textural percussion. A co-founder of ABEG NYC, a collective by and for queer Africans, and SLICK DOWN, a DJ collective, label, and staple Brooklyn club night centered around electronic music’s roots in Black culture, Simisola is dedicated to connecting QTPOC communities through music and event curation. In addition to hosting HYPNOSIS, a quarterly party which pays homage to their disco roots, Simisola frequently performs at popular venues across NYC, including The Lot Radio, Paragon, and Bossa Nova Civic Club, and is a resident on 8Ball Radio.

their own biography
the whole biography
Gogo steht für treibenden, hypnotischen Techno mit Trance-Flavour, epischen Breaks und tiefem Bassdruck. Seine Sets sind schnell, psychedelisch und voll auf den Vibe gebaut – energetisch, positiv und immer connected mit der Crowd. Kein Plastik-Techno, sondern Gefühl, Druck und Story. Seit 2021 ist der Frankfurter DJ unterwegs – mit einem Sound, der sich zwischen Peaktime und Psychedelic bewegt, aber nie die Reise verliert. Geprägt von Acts wie Boris Brejcha, Akki, Schrotthagen oder Mha Iri, hat Gogo seinen eigenen Weg gefunden: ein Sound, der ballert und gleichzeitig träumen lässt. Ob MTW Offenbach, Batschkapp Frankfurt, Kesselhaus Berlin, Bellini Mainz, Tokonoma/K39, Weißer Hase Berlin oder auf der Scène du Gurp – Gogo bringt nicht nur Musik, sondern Präsenz. Er ist Host der Projekte Tiefe Klänge und Holovision – Letzteres ein visuelles Konzept für große Bühnen, bei dem immersive 3D-Welten live mit dem Sound verschmelzen. Keine Deko, kein Gimmick – Holovision ist ein echtes audiovisuelles Erlebnis für große Floors. Gogo war Teil der Reihen Dark Velocity und Lost in Orbit, spielte bei Kollektiven wie Escape oder Kunstfreiheit – tief in der Szene verwurzelt, aber immer mit dem Blick nach vorne.Last at Oberon in Oct · often with MISQUARED, Luis Fernando, none of them here on Saturday
