Olof Dreijer is a Swedish producer, DJ and artist whose vibrant, unconventional approach to dance music has made him a singular voice in electronic music. Best known as one half of The Knife alongside Karin Dreijer (Fever Ray), he returned to solo work in 2023 with releases on Hessle Audio, Dekmantel and AD 93, alongside remixes for Björk & Rosalía, Röyksopp & Robyn and others. His debut solo album, Loud Bloom, brings together joyful, rhythmically adventurous club music with collaborations spanning South Africa, Colombia and Sudan. Balancing experimentation with pure dancefloor pleasure, Dreijer’s work is also deeply informed by his longstanding commitments to queer expression, anti-racism and social justice.
Dopplereffekt is a pioneering Detroit electronic music project founded by Gerald Donald, also known as one half of the legendary Drexciya. Active since the mid-1990s and now a duo with To-Nhan, Dopplereffekt combines precise, mechanistic techno and electro with eerie melodies and a fascination for science, technology and speculative philosophy. From the seminal Gesamtkunstwerk to releases on Rephlex, Leisure System and Tresor Records, the project has developed a singular sonic universe informed by theoretical physics, mathematics and the relationship between humans and machines. Their latest album, Metasymmetry (2025), continues this exploration through sparse metallic rhythms and atmospheric electronics, reaffirming Dopplereffekt’s enduring influence on experimental electronic music.
Aurora Halal is a producer, DJ and creator of Brooklyn’s influential Mutual Dreaming party series & the Sustain-Release festival. Shadowy and psychedelic, her hardware live & DJ sets have a hazy sensuality and metallic dance floor intensity that’s at turns playful, dark, euphoric and emotionally vulnerable. In all her projects she treats dance music as an arena for transformation, and since 2010 her events have been rooted in an underground, DIY approach that pushes forward-thinking sounds, production and ideas. She’s a resident at NYC’s Nowadays, a regular at Berghain and De School, and has spent the last 10 years touring like-minded clubs, raves and festivals all over the world.
Italian-born, Berlin-based Massimiliano Pagliara is a DJ and producer whose eclectic sound moves fluidly between house, disco, electro and techno. A trained dancer and choreographer, he immersed himself in Berlin’s electronic music scene in the early 2000s and has since become a fixture of its nightlife. He has held a residency at Berghain’s Panorama Bar since 2015, alongside residencies at Robert Johnson, Basement New York and Romantica. As a producer, Pagliara combines a love of analog synthesizers with influences spanning experimental electronics and classic club music. His extensive discography includes four solo albums and releases on Permanent Vacation, Ostgut Ton, Live At Robert Johnson and his own label, Funnuvojere Records.
Athens-based Marine Tordjemann, aka OKO DJ, is a forward-thinking DJ and producer known for adventurous, genre-defying selections. She has performed at renowned venues and festivals including Atonal, Unsound, Tresor and Dekmantel, crafting sets that weave the weird and wonderful into unpredictable dancefloor experiences. She runs the acclaimed PU$$Y NIGHTMARE event series and LYL radio show, spotlighting FLINTAQ* artists, and holds an NTS residency blending personal dream narratives with ambient and psychedelic soundscapes. As a producer, OKO DJ moves freely between experimental music, dub, ’90s rock and spoken word, with releases on Dispari, Futur2010, Metaphore and Red Bull Music. Tender, cathartic and unconventional, her work consistently pushes boundaries.
Philadelphia-based DJ and selector Dave P. has spent more than two decades championing adventurous electronic music through his celebrated Making Time events, New York’s FIXED parties with JDH, and Making Time ∞. Founded at Philadelphia’s historic Fort Mifflin, the latter has quickly become a renowned three-day gathering dedicated to forward-thinking electronic sounds. Fearless and wide-ranging behind the decks, Dave P. moves freely across genres, connecting unexpected sounds through energetic and immersive sets. At the heart of his practice is the idea of “futuristic musical TRANSCENDENCE”: creating inclusive dancefloor experiences where music brings body, mind and spirit together. Through Making Time, he has helped shape Philadelphia’s electronic music community for 25 years.
