Wrecked steps into November with an all-star lineup. Partok returns, taking charge in BASEMENT for a techno set. One of the organizers of the beloved Launderette party series, Partok has become a figurehead in the modern queer underground. He is truly a world class DJ, with a range that can stretch across genres with ease. But he made his name in large part on his techno bonafides, balancing in equal measure a staggering, brutalist power with a canny, sensuality. Mike Servito joins him, stepping away from his usual post in STUDIO for a techno set. Born in Detroit but defined by his multi-decade run in New York, Servito is one of our era’s most exemplary DJs. His craft is rooted in the old ways, with a no-BS edginess that remains evergreen. But he has never stopped evolving, and consistently finds fresh ways to bring the raw, rugged jacking energy that is his calling card to life. Wrecked’s Ryan Smith completes the night, matching his colleagues with some propulsive, at times mutant energy.

PEPIITA makes her debut, ready to set it off. The French DJ is a co-founder of the Queer Ranch Festival, located on the Greek island of Lesbos. Need we say more? In this iconic location, PEPIITA and her cohort have cultivated a pop-up utopia of music and queer liberation for five editions and counting. The ‘90s spirit that is foregrounded in their curation is matched in PEPIITA’s sets, which bounce with nearly-unhinged energy and pure excitement. Loren joins from Detroit. A resident of the renowned TV Lounge and the co-founder of queer party series HUNNI, Loren embodies the spirit of Midwest rave to a tee; genres be damned, just keep the spirit flowing. Wrecked’s Ron Like Hell rounds it out with a dose of pure, heady psychedelia of the highest order. Accept no substitutes.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    For more than a decade, he has been one of Berlin’s most enduring presences and a key figure in the city's queer scene, playing regularly at both Panorama Bar and Berghain. His aesthetic is rooted in the origins of underground dance music, taking cues from the rawness of both US and UK cornerstones. Acid-tinged patterns, rolling toms, and full-bodied low ends combine into a groove that’s punchy and alive. As Dekmantel noted on his contribution to their mix series, “He packs plenty in, dexterously switching up the mood as he weaves through evocative and emotional sounds, always powered by crisp drums.” His longevity and quiet authority have led him to be a regular fixture at some of the most celebrated clubs and parties around – Adonis in London, BLITZ in Munich, and Savage Hanoi, as well as performances at leading festivals like Glastonbury’s Block9, Houghton, Wonderfruit, and Lost Village. This energy also fuels his project LAUNDRETTE, a collaboration with Roi Perez and David Elimelech. What began as a series of intimate gatherings has grown into one of Berlin’s most beloved parties, which also function occasionally as fundraisers for marginalised communities and humanitarian causes.

    “Some DJs burst upon the scene like a supernova, fading just as quickly.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Some DJs burst upon the scene like a supernova, fading just as quickly. Others take years, even decades, to make their way—but those are the ones who make the most impact, thanks to a lifetime of accumulated musical wisdom. Mike Servito is a prime example of the latter. His career is one that’s defined by a slow and steady rise to upper ranks of the deejaying realm—and along the way, he’s perfected a jacking style that equal parts house, acid and techno, a sound that pays homage to the past while being very much of-the-moment. A Detroit-area native, Servito got his early education by tuning into the Electrifying Mojo and the Wizard (Jeff Mill’s radio moniker). By the early ’90s, Servito was primed to try his hand at the deejaying arts, “I was just kind of cocky about it,” he says. “I knew I could do it.” And he was right—in the DJ hotbed of Detroit, internalizing knowledge gleamed from the likes of Mike Huckaby and Claude Young, he kept working at it until he established himself as a force to be reckoned with in the Motor City circuit, eventually becoming a member in good standing with the inner circle of Ghostly International. But Servito felt the need for a change from the sometimes insular environment of Detroit. By the late ’00s, he was living in NYC with no real game plan in place. As it turned out, he didn’t really need one—he soon fell in with the city’s premier techno party, The Bunker, becoming one of its mainstay residents. Around the same time, he was beginning to make his presence known on a global scale, packing dance floors with gigs around the States and around the world. But it was a hometown festival snub in 2014 that really got things going. Servito had played Movement once before, in 2011. “And between then and 2014,” he recalls, “I had been playing so many Bunker parties, playing so many great gigs and my profile was rising—so I was sure they would book me again.” The invite never came. Instead, he booked himself at every Movement after-party he could, one of which was the annual No Way Back, a legendary throw down hosted by The Bunker New York and Detroit’s Interdimensional Transmissions label. The set, a riotously sweaty bleeps-and-beats affair, was recorded for posterity; unexpectedly but deservedly, it garnered a nod as the year’s No 1 online Mix of the Year on Resident Advisor. That was the spark that set Servito’s career aflame, the push that took him to the top. Since then, he’s cemented his status as one of the most respected spinners around, regularly manning the decks at such hallowed halls as Berlin’s Panorama Bar, London’s XOYO and Tokyo’s Contact, not to mention the world’s best festivals—including, of course Movement. And to this day, his approach to deejaying is refreshingly simple: “I really don’t think about it,” he says, “When I’m playing, I just dive in, and I’m OK.” He’s far more than okay—he’s one of the best around.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Born in France, she developed a passion for the arts at an early age, studying film before moving to Paris to pursue a career in cinema. However, it was the underground electronic music scene that ultimately captivated her, pulling her away from the world of film and immersing her in the beats and rhythms of the Parisian nightlife. Over the years, PEPIITA has made a name for herself as a DJ, performing at iconic venues such as Cabaret Sauvage, La Machine du Moulin Rouge, La Station - Gare des Mines. Today, she’s joining Spectrum Waves as a resident. Her eclectic taste and dynamic sets place her at the heart of the movement, making her a key figure in amplifying the voices of marginalized communities within electronic music. In addition to her performances, she’s also the co-founder of the Queer Ranch Festival in Lesbos, an event dedicated to inclusivity and the empowerment of queer and trans communities. PEPIITA’s roots are deeply connected to her desire for freedom, self-expression, and breaking down barriers. Her music reflects these values: powerful, bold, and always playful. Her dark disco sets, seamlessly blending elements of hard house and rave, invite listeners to lose themselves in the rhythms, guiding them through a transformative journey on the dancefloor. Beyond the music, her magnetic energy and infectious personality ensure that every space she occupies becomes a celebration of life, liberation, and joy. With an unwavering commitment to fun, inclusivity, and creative expression, she will continue to inspire and energize all those who enter her world! Picture by Emotional Riots.

    Approaching a dj mix as assemblages, Ron Like Hell aligns sound with emotion, focusing on texture to create psychedelic soundscapes, imaginative spaces for comfort and surprise spectators with an unexpected crafty transition. With 26+ years of making people dance in numerous countries along with years of vinyl shop experience and music promotion, his/their role in the industry is unique and influential. Their latest production, EXALT is their dream come true where Ron selects a personally beloved dj to play solo then close out the night together with a b2b set. EXALT's first guest was Matrixxman in April 2022 at Basement in Ridgewood-Queens, NY. Ron also djs as Wrecked, a music first queer dance party which recently turned 14.
