Her music is guided by organically evolving motifs, shaping sets and productions that unfold with patience, tension and intent.
Her artistic approach is deeply informed by a background in archaeology and esotericism, influences that surface both sonically and conceptually through her work. These elements form the foundation of her label Katabasis, a platform that reflects her interest in depth, ritual and transformation within electronic music.
Releases on respected imprints including Modwerks, Repetitive Rhythm Research, Token and KSR have positioned Sanna Mun as a distinctive voice in contemporary techno.

Sedef Adasï has developed a sound guided by instinct, movement and close attention to the dancefloor. Her sets are fluid and responsive, moving between house, acid and rhythm-driven club music with a balance of raw energy and refinement. Rather than fixed structures, she builds in real time, allowing mood and momentum to shape each transition.
Raised in Augsburg, she chose to build locally rather than relocate, a decision that led to the creation of her HAMAM Nights series in 2017. Rooted in warmth, unity and shared experience, the concept has since resonated far beyond its origins, reaching some of Europe’s most respected clubs.
A resident at Munich’s Blitz Club and Berlin’s Panorama Bar, Sedef Adasï continues to sculpt nights that feel unrepeatable and deeply connected. Each set is an exchange, shaped by trust, timing and the collective energy of the room.

Born in Batumi and now based in Kyiv, Serafina has been immersed in music from an early age. With formal musical training shaping her foundations, she approaches DJing and production with a strong sense of structure, timing and emotional control.
Her sound is rooted in depth and atmosphere, favouring subtle progression over excess. In her sets, rhythm and texture work together to create focused, immersive journeys that respond closely to the energy of the room. There is a quiet intensity to her approach, allowing tension to build naturally and release with intention.

Silva Bumpa is a central figure in the current UK garage, bassline and speed garage resurgence. Based in Manchester, his sound blends raw UK bass pressure with the singalong bounce of classic club music, capturing the spirit of mid-2000s bassline through sharp songwriting and modern production.
Rising quickly from the underground, he has released on influential labels including Locked On, EC2A and ATW, alongside breakout records on Room 2. His music balances grit and warmth, pairing heavyweight low-end with vocal hooks built for collective release on the dancefloor.
As a DJ, Silva Bumpa thrives in high-energy club environments, driven by community and scene-building as much as momentum. With sold-out headline shows, major festival appearances and a rapidly growing international following, he continues to push UKG forward while staying firmly rooted in its culture and people.

Born in South Sudan, raised between Cairo and Brisbane, and now based between Paris and Tokyo, Skin On Skin brings a global perspective to contemporary club music. His sound blends techno and house with touches of alternative hip-hop, driven by groove, emotion and raw immediacy.
His breakout came in 2019 with a debut EP on Steel City Dance Discs, featuring the defining track Multiply. This momentum continued through a run of sought-after releases, the launch of his Stay On Sight Recordings imprint, and the street-level impact of Burn Dem Bridges in 2022.
Known for high-energy, expressive sets, Skin On Skin has appeared at leading clubs and festivals worldwide, alongside widely viewed Boiler Room performances. With sold-out tours across multiple continents, he has firmly established himself as one of the most recognisable and influential figures in modern dance music.

Berlin-based DJ and producer southstar has carved out a distinctive place in modern club music through instinct, restraint and melody-driven impact. Emerging in late 2021, his early releases laid the groundwork for a sound that balances emotional pull with direct dancefloor function.
His breakthrough came with Miss You, a global hit that pushed techno-house into mainstream consciousness without losing its club-rooted core. Since then, southstar has continued to refine his identity through focused releases, including collaborations with DJ Heartstring, further cementing his role within a new wave of melodic, high-energy club artists.

SPFDJ has built one of the most uncompromising reputations in modern techno through sheer energy, conviction and speed. Emerging from the underground circuits of London and Berlin, her rise has been fast, grassroots and deeply connected to rave culture.
Her sets operate at high tempo and high intensity, cutting through techno, acid, EBM, hardcore and trance with little concern for convention. The result is raw, physical and confrontational, designed to overwhelm rather than ease in. This approach found a natural home in Berlin’s Herrensauna, where she became a resident in 2018, helping define the party’s sweat-drenched, no-compromise identity.
Beyond the booth, SPFDJ channels the same vision through her Intrepid Skin label and long-running Rinse FM residency, platforming challenging music and revisiting rave’s outer edges. Few artists match her ability to push a room to its limits and keep it there.

Spriitzz is the live alias of Berlin-based Irish producer Tiarnan McMorrow, also known as Spray. Where Spray is built for the club, Spriitzz exists in a more fluid space, focused on atmosphere, melody and emotional lift. The project traces a personal path between Ireland, Berlin and Ibiza, channelled into music that feels suspended between night and morning.
His debut track Where R U set the tone. Euphoric and hypnotic, yet hazy and dreamlike, it captures the feeling of a sunset bleeding into sunrise. Trance sits at the core, but softened by pop sensibility, nostalgia and warmth rather than peak-time pressure.
Performed live, Spriitzz is about release rather than impact. It is music that floats, carrying a sense of longing and hope, shaped by memory, place and fleeting moments on the edge of the dancefloor.

Stef Mendesidis is known for a direct, physical approach to techno built around live creation and instinctive control. Working with a one-take recording philosophy, his productions translate emotion, imagery and internal rhythm straight into sound, favouring immediacy over polish.
Deeply rooted in analogue processes, Stef brings this mindset into the booth. Using four decks and his own drum loops, he builds techno in real time, leaving room for improvisation and responding closely to the context of the room. His sets are dynamic and forward-driven, shaped by constant movement rather than fixed structures.

THELMA has quickly established herself as a standout presence through instinctive selections and a sound that blends techno, electro and club pressure with confidence. One of her earliest releases, TRACK ID, gained significant traction and set the tone for a rapid rise built on energy and originality.
Since then, she has built a strong international profile through extensive touring, particularly in Australia, alongside appearances across Europe and the UK. Support from respected figures across the electronic spectrum has followed, leading to key performances at major festivals and iconic club spaces.
THELMA continues to push forward with momentum and a sound that feels both rooted and current.

Toobris developed his sound through movement between cities, growing up in Munich before spending time in Stuttgart, Berlin and Amsterdam. Each scene played a role in shaping his musical language, feeding into an approach that values intuition, texture and variation.
His productions and sets embrace a sense of controlled randomness. Unpredictable elements are introduced and allowed to settle into cohesive, flowing structures, rewarding attentive listening and physical response alike. The result is music that feels soulful, groovy and bouncy, driven by rhythmic basslines, crisp hi-hats and layered percussion.

UEBERREST, one of today’s most exciting DJ/producers.

Voicedrone is a London-based DJ and producer whose sound is rooted in depth, restraint and long-form tension. His sets prioritise atmosphere and physical response, unfolding patiently through subtle shifts in rhythm and space rather than immediate impact.

Enter the electrifying world of VTSS, the techno maximalist and high-octane club rhythms maestro.

From DJ/producer to vocalist/song-writer, her versatile talents have skyrocketed her to stardom in recent years, traversing effortlessly between the darkest of dance floors and the grandest festival stages.
Few artists attain the intricate balance of blending pop-cultural influences and niche electronic sub-genres while maintaining credibility quite like VTSS. With a skillful blend of refined productions and raw DIY authenticity, she breaks barriers and consistently delivers undeniable bangers. However, her selections go further, infusing each of her sets with a spirit of exploration, keeping her audience engaged by defying expectations with unexpected genre shifts and an ever-evolving soundscape.
Get ready for one hell of a ride with VTSS.

The sound of X CLUB., the dance production duo of Ben Clarke and Jesse Morath, is not easily defined. Inspired by early 90s techno all the way through to future-facing drum’n’bass, X CLUB. has carved out a space entirely their own thanks to their authentic and eclectic take on dance music with serious consideration for underlying groove.
Founded from the rustic walls of Brisbane/Meanjin Australia’s warehouse scene and exported to London as their home-base, the pair opt to guide their audience on a dynamic, energetic and unpredictable ride, gaining buzz as “one of the hottest new dance acts“, as labelled by BBC-R1’s Sarah Story, which is the result of friendship, authenticity, and of course, hard n’ fast tracks.
