Based in Berlin, DJ, curator, queer-activist, Ipek Ipekcioglu produces an extraordinary warm, dynamic and organic interpretation of electronic music melted with the melodramatic sound of Anatolia/Mesopotamia, Turkey, Orient & the Middle East. 
Ipek Ipekcioglu received German Record Critics' Award for her Beyond Istanbul Albums @ Trikont and was named as a musical and political "visionary" by the Süddeutsche Zeitung. and cited as a representative for “ideologically blinker-free living” by Rolling Stone Magazine. 
The socialy- critical minded producer is an activist and member of female: pressure network and has a strong social-critical agenda related to women, immigrant, queer and gender topics which she transports into her productions. Ipek has been pushing boundaries within the ethnic & electronic music scene and communities for over two decades. This vibrant mix and her work have earned her a place as “one of Berlin’s most important cultural contributors” [Zitty Magazine]. She proudly carries the title of "MC of cross-cultural understanding" (Daniel Bax - TAZ).
Ipek has performed at Glastonburry, Fusion, Sziget, Garbicz, At. tension, Ms Dockville, Womex and many more international electronic and world music festivals from New York City, Beirut, Erbil, Yerevan, Marseille, Los Angeles, Salvador de Bahia, Cairo, Sana’a, Istanbul, Seoul, Novosibirsk to the desert Sahara of Mali, developing an exclusive brand name with her unique & hybrid Sound mix. She has toured throughout, China, Siberia, Japan and the US.

<< Style >>
Have you ever wondered how many subgenres there have been in our scene since 2010? 5, 10 or 20? Do you remember when there were no pure downtempo productions? It felt like an eternity looking for downpitchable songs that also fitted together stylistically, didn't it? ...
I'm a real fan of so many different subgenres of electronic music – I could listen to them all day! And every now and then, I like to mix things up and try something new. At the end, I am thrilled to say that I understand and feel 'arkadiusz' more as a music project! Especially during podcast collaborations I try something new and special. 

As a performing club DJ I am focused on two amazing directions: Slow and fast, or as I like to say: Hypnodream and Hypnodance!

🐌 = slow (80-115 BPM) = Hypnodream - hypnotic & melancholic & deep downtempo
🚀 = fast (115-125 BPM) = Hypnodance - cool bouncetempo meets disco & techhouse

Discover and enjoy.
