Study: Homosexuality Mystery Solved

With the help of sophisticated Technology the test subjects (ravers) will be acoustically stimulated with a mix of sub-genres like Euro Disco, Acid House and Detroit Techno.

Participants of this field study are highly advised to drink enough water during the experiment, to take care of fellow ravers and prepare for highly physical sensations… cause shit is about to go down

Between juicy booty Tech House and autonomous center badass-boss-b*tch demolition - Get ready to (t)werk!

Lets get down to the flooor!

Vivi Wahnsinn

Vivi Wahnsinn was dragged to the dancefloor unintentionally but found herself disappointed as none of the performing artists quite matched her taste at full scale. So without thinking twice, she threw herself into the art of djing to develop her very own style and to please fellow dancers.

By creating her distinct approach to house music, she was soon booked to various events at Odonien in her hometown Cologne, Nachtigall or Kit Kat in Berlin, just to name a few.

Her style is best described as dirty, bouncy Tech House laced with catchy vocal edits. Playing a wide range from minimalistic house to absolute G House bangers, she is always able to hold the energy on a very high level in a little bit trashy, little bit nasty way. Same as lemons being sour-sweet but you can’t get enough of it.

If you cannot find her behind the decks on her own, she is probably heating things up as a part of @latzundleder.

Xynia

Driving, hard beats interwoven with trancy melodies - her tracks are catchy as well as unconventional.

In Xynia’s DJ sets she creates a pulsating union of early Hardstyle classics and modern productions. An invitation to forget yourself in the moment, to follow the stomp of your feet. Without compromise, she takes dancers on a journey.

With performances across Europe, including @possessiontechno and @themeaningofrave, she has long ceased to be an insider tip.

Zoanthropiia

Zoanthropiia (she/her) born and raised in Donetsk (Ukraine) and once again raised in Berlin. She started discovering electronic music in Berlin when she moved to germany in 2013.

She started by mixing funky & afro house and continued with various genres of techno, including melodic, rave and trance.

Today, her sound comprises of driving baseline and punchy beat companied by space melody that is grooving on off-beat percussion.
