RROXYMORE

Whether on stage, on record or deep in the collaborative process, the musical lexicon of rRoxymore develops with frequency and pace. As respected for her esoteric, offbeat club records as her semi-improvised live performances, the sheer expansiveness at the heart of rRoxymore’s work has marked her as a vital artist on the fringes of contemporary club culture.

rRoxymore’s accolades include her celebrated sophomore album, Perpetual Now, released on Smalltown Supersound in 2022. Her acclaimed productions include the EP I Wanted More for Aus Music, contributions to Tresor’s 30th anniversary compilation, a remix of E-Dancer's Human Bond on Drumcode Records and her celebrated 2019 debut album, Face to Phase, which was highly rated by Pitchfork and Resident Advisor. In a live setting rRoxymore has thrilled with performances for leading-edge festivals Atonal in Berlin and Festival Musica in Strasbourg, original productions curated by SOS MUSIC and On Loop, and commissioned projects in collaboration with Austrian choreographers Ian Kaler and Sweden’s Stina Nyberg.

rRoxymore’s sound may radically evolve, yet her principles as an artist remain rooted in experimentation, community and a committed social consciousness. This approach is shot through the bands and DJ booths of her youth, her longstanding residency with Berlin collective Room 4 Resistance, her position as a core artist on UK label Don’t Be Afraid, and projects in tandem with artists from alternative and queer culture, like Planningtorock and Decon/Recon. Pushing forward to larger and more diverse audiences with her music, yet possessed of the clarity of vision and humble urge to experiment, rRoxymore continues to be defined only as an artist who exists outside of common boundaries.

MOSKA

When it comes to DJ’s fiercely dancing on stage, we instantly think of fake moves executed mainly for the feeds. But that's not always the case. As with Moska – hailing from the small town of Ljubljana but lately more frequently spotted in Graz and even more in Vienna where she currently resides. Her stage moves are enthusiastically honest, but more importantly she doesn’t read the floor, she’s a part of it – whether she's doing a head noddin’ true school HipHop set, a laid back Soul-Funk soiree or conducting a serious Footwork/Bass/Ghetto/House club workout. Sometimes she even mixes it all up. 

The bio formalities and impressive references: Moska started actively deejaying around 2015 and since then performed in different countries across Europe (Sweden, Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, Austria...), on different festivals and radios such as Elevate festival, Impulstanz festival, Ment festival, Radio FM4, Redlight Radio, Radio Helsinki, Res.Radio, Radio Nula and Radio Študent. She shared the stage with names like Traxman, Darwin, Equiss, K-Lone, EMA, Jio, Souci, Torvs, DJ Fulltono, DJ Innes, MC Sa-Roc, MC Dynasty, FVLCRVM, The Bug, Miss Red… She used to run a weekly radio show called Mishmash Mo’ on the online Radio Nula and occasionally organises events with her fellow DJ friends. She's part of not one but three collectives that connect her triangle of home bases: Service (Vienna), Whammy (Graz) and Ghetto Trunk (Ljubljana).

Moska truly and thoroughly embodies the classic DJ ethos: peace, unity, love and having fun... and giving it always 100%! Keep it fresshhh.

KTA

Cutting her teeth in the small but dedicated underground scene of Graz, KTA became well familiar with some of the most left-field dance music around at a young age. Now based in Vienna, she just started off changing sides from the middle of the dancefloor to behind the DJ-booth, sharing her rich musical experience with the world.

In her sets, you may expect anything from Electro to Techno, from Breaks to Jungle, from Ghetto House to Footwork, from 120 to 180 BPM – yet always full of energy and creativity and guaranteed to make any crowd sweat!

And as said, she's just even getting started, so be sure to watch out for her before everyone else does...
