It’s a family thing! With the Demiurgo EP we present, for the frst time, all of our current Connaisseur protagonists together on one release. Sicilian veteran dj and producer Musumeci and Malta's top dog and man behind the Cosa Nostra events - The Element - have created together two state-of-the-art cuts.

''Demiurgo''and ''Pneuma'' take inspirations from Plato and Stoic's philosophy and they both represent an experiment where The Element and Musumeci are trying to turn concepts such as 'Matter' and 'Breath of Life' into their own musical vision. The tracks have the same timeless approach with a clear structure, demanding grooves and touching, but never flamboyant melodies.

Olderic, DJ/Producer and owner of the legendary Venetian club CIRQ, gave ''Pneuma'' a proper remix treatment and created the most epic track of the release. A hypnotic and very cleverly constructed weapon, this is sure to be a killer on any dancefoor.

Second remix is by our dear Lehar. We are still speechless about how amazingly his profle has developed in recent months. His version of Demirugo is an alluring affair. Typical Lehar’ish melodies dominate this dreamy interpretation which is the perfect round-up of this release.

Artwork is taken from a canvas of Sicilian artist Ernesto Assenza based on Caravaggio's 'The sacrifce of Isaac‘.

KOAKOTI: The Legend of Rhythms Crossing Continents

KOAKOTI is a Russian DJ known for her unique style of Afro House that blends ancient rhythms with contemporary sounds. This enigmatic nickname comes from an ancient word meaning "soul of dance" in the language of a forgotten African tribe, symbolizing the connection between past traditions and the present.

From the very start of her career, KOAKOTI actively toured Russia, performing at well-known venues in Moscow and other cities. Seeking new experiences and inspiration, she moved to Turkey, where she spent six months captivating the Turkish audience with her sets and immersing herself in the unique atmosphere of the country.

But her journey didn’t stop there. The next chapter led her to Thailand, where she lived for 1.5 years, regularly performing at top venues on the islands of Phangan, Samui, and Phuket. Absorbing local sounds and rhythms, KOAKOTI incorporated them into her musical style, creating unforgettable sonic landscapes.

KOAKOTI embodies the nomadic spirit of music, bringing people together and making them move to the beat of both ancient and modern rhythms. Her sets are an immersion into exotic soundscapes, where each performance becomes an unforgettable adventure. Young and talented, with refined taste, KOAKOTI continues to inspire listeners' hearts worldwide.

GENRE: Tech/progressive/Afro/ HOUSE

Thoughtful. Nuanced. Deep. Soulful. Dreamy. Melodic. I believe that music should tell stories or connect with emotions or moods. I seek and play unique music that is full of soul and engenders deep emotions and feelings. I am a storyteller. I approach each set as a journey I would like to share or a story I want to tell.
