It all started in the year 2002. Two rather refrained DJs were increasingly confronted with sentences like "Don´t you like what you´re doing? Take it easy! Just smile!" etc. All the time they were only concentrated, doing their thing. In order to further avoid further nagging questions and uncomfortable situations, they decided to hide their faces and created helmets to wear during their sets. A suitable name had to be found, underlining this rather involuntary appeareance: BROTHERS INCOGNITO were born. Now the honoured listener could devote himself to the only essential and  fundamental thing - music without compromise. Certain parallels to Daft Punk sank in much later and were, of course, unintentional. Since then, music is the absolute focus. The two quickly realised that now they were putting themselves under less pressure, relaxed and little by little developed a second personality behind their masks. In a certain way fantasy figures as known from movies, their creators giving them distinctive features and a special look, only in this case creator and creation merge into one. An explosive mixture seemingly allowing to cross borders and to achieve a certain freedom.

The fan-base quickly grew and - to avoid exchangeability - was named the HOT SECRET SOCIETY. Rumours and speculations about who is hiding behind Brothers Incognito are going on until today. Communication is only possible by body language, the senses are influenced in a special and different way.  Musically, borders and boundaries are equally pushed aside and different influences are incorporated into a DJ set. Thus you will find within a Brothers Incognito set House, Techno and Electro as well as Minimal and TechHouse. Always fresh, exciting and up-to-date.

Magda is amongst the most high-profile and in demand artists, having proven herself as a consistent, adventurous and exceptional performer, with a knack for bringing music together in unexpected ways.
Magda's realm as an artist pans far beyond the typical role of DJ and producer. With an open mind, Magda will try her hand at whatever feels right – from music technology collaborations and events to producing premium Tequila - creating a truly unique, multifaceted expression of herself.
Born in Poland and raised in Detroit, Magda discovered beauty and inspiration in Detroit’s raw urban landscape. In 1998, she joined the Minus label and began touring as Richie Hawtin's main DJ.
Since her first international tour in 2003, Magda established herself globally as an artist known for pushing musical boundaries and expressing her unique style. She released her forward-thinking DJ mix album 'She's A Dancing Machine' in 2006, followed by her debut artist album ‘From The Fallen Page’ in 2010 among other single releases. Magda’s remix work includes Plastikman and Depeche Mode and DJ mix albums for Fabric, Balance, as well as a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix, among others.
In 2006, Magda established the Items & Things label and booking agency with Troy Pierce and Marc Houle.
In 2017, she launched the Perm event series in Berlin. Sitting pretty at the crossroads between art and club culture, Perm was a collective initiated by Magda and established in the name of artistic cross-pollination with a very strong multimedia aesthetic. Guests included Atom TM, Burnt Friedman, Jan Jelinek, and Cristian Vogel.
Recently, Magda has produced and performed alongside T.B. Arthur as Blotter Trax. The Blotter Trax live show combines modular synthesis, live improvisation and rhythmic exploration. Performance highlights have included live audio- visual duets with video artist Lillevan (Morton Subotnick, Christian Fennesz) and a recent club tour of Japan which saw the duo performing live and transitioning into Magda’s signature DJ sets.
