Cryptofauna is a resident of Berlin-based crews TILT and Dissident. Her style moves between forward-pushing energy, warmth and darkness, linking abstract, textured and functional sound. With over a decade of experience in crowd dynamics, she shapes floors from deep immersion to euphoric peaks and back.

Across Europe, she has appeared at clubs such as Berghain/Panorama Bar and Säule, Tresor, OHM and RSO in Berlin, Macadam in Nantes, POING in Rotterdam, FVTVR in Paris as well as Club RAUM and Radion in Amsterdam. In summer 2025, she played first intercontinental shows in New York at Nowadays, The Lot Radio and Lettone. Towards the end of 2025, she debuts in China and Vietnam.

For this mix, she spent a full night digging and kept following new paths in sound. Once the selection was done, the material felt overwhelming yet clear in direction. The result for BCCO is trippy, slightly off, gritty and full of swing, carried by an organic momentum.
