Mononome is a musician/producer hailing from Thessaloniki, Greece.
Releasing music under the moniker since 2011, he soon accomplished to become one of the key figures of his generation within the European beat-producing scene.

Starting off with sampling, and presently based on a mixture of it along with live instrumentation and electronics, Mononome managed to create a characteristic sound, blurring the lines between future and old school.

His breakthrough album “Come Close” released in 2012 led to multiple tours across Europe, playing festivals and venues sharing the stage with the likes of Wax Tailor, Chinese Man, Thievery Corporation, Nightmares On Wax, DJ Krush, Ras G and Gramatik.

His work has been praised and received airplay by radio stations such as L.A.-based “KCRW”, Paris-based “NOVA” and “Le Mellotron” and has been featured on the “BandCamp Daily” column of the renowned platform.

Few artists embody the metaphor of life as a journey quite like Joyce Muniz. Born in Brazil and raised in Vienna, the DJ, producer, vocalist, and radio host now splits her time between Vienna — where she runs her studio and hosts a show on FM4 — and Berlin. She first made her mark at Vienna’s legendary Flex club as a DJ and MC before moving fully into production, releasing on leading labels including Exploited, Get Physical, Kompakt, Permanent Vacation, International DJ Gigolo, and Pets Recordings. Joyce also spent five years as a radio resident on Rinse FM UK, further cementing her presence across Europe’s electronic landscape.
Joyce’s creative world has expanded significantly in recent years. She became the first woman to join Germany’s Synth Live orchestral project, taking her hybrid electronic–orchestral show across the country. Her 2023 album Zeitkapsel (“time capsule”) represented a major artistic leap and the launch of her own imprint, Joyce Muniz Music. The record revisited the sounds that shaped her — from trip-hop and downtempo to drum & bass, house, and electro — with highlights such as the Portuguese-spoken anthem “Arrivederci Bella.”
A deep spiritual and artistic transformation also fuels her work. After overcoming cancer in her early 30s, Joyce returned to her Brazilian roots through plant-medicine traditions linked to her grandfather’s shamanism — a rebirth that continues to guide her creativity and purpose. During the pandemic she honed her technical craft, became a sought-after workshop host for Native Instruments, and completed a Bachelor’s degree in radio presenting.
Her momentum has only accelerated. In 2024 she released “No Haters” with Renato Cohen on Permanent Vacation, followed by her breakout Kompakt debut “Beats & Lines” with Sara Bluma — a track that held the No.1 position on Beatport’s Indie Dance Chart for several weeks. In 2025 she returned with the Afro-electro single “Mo Dupe” on Exploited, a lo-fi Yoruba-inspired homage to gratitude, and the powerful Kompakt release “Hack The System” featuring Futuradora, blending electro energy with sharp socio-political commentary.
Equally dedicated to the community, Joyce serves as a mentor and A&R guide for Lady of the House Brazil, supporting women and non-binary producers in electronic music. On the road, she tours nonstop across Europe, the Americas, and Brazil — where her achievements earned her a Mixmag cover feature.
Joyce Muniz is an artist in constant evolution: a boundary-breaking producer, a magnetic DJ, a cultural connector, and a storyteller guided by rhythm, identity, and spirit. With new releases and collaborations ahead, her journey — already spanning continents, styles, and generations — is only just beginning

We just say Fouk.

For Daniel Leseman & Junktion (Hans Peeman), successful producers on their own merits and friends since childhood, a collaboration was inevitable. Their house sound infused with disco and a lot of funk has been proven to be very infectious.

After the infamous Detroit Swindle signed them to their Heist imprint and released the booming Kill Frenzy EP their name was established firmly to a broad and quickly growing audience. The result was requests for DJ sets across Europe, the America’s & Australia with personal highlights including Glastonbury, LoveBox, Concrete Paris, Output New York, Club Space Miami, Claire and De Marktkantine in Amsterdam.

Their first vinyl release as Fouk, on their own Outplay Records was met with great enthusiasm, the brilliant reactions to ‘Stuff Your Dad Liked’ and ‘Cat Lady’ propelled Fouk and Outplay firmly into the scene as the ‘one to watch’. Since then they’ve released EP’s on Room With A View, The House of Disco and Razor-n-Tape and made a string of strong remixes for the likes of Kraak & Smaak, Smoove & Turrell, Groove Armada, The Brand New Heavies, Luke Million, Joey Negro and Mayer Hawthorne.

After releasing ‘Release The Kraken EP’ featuring Thumpasaurus on The House of Disco, ‘Truffles EP’ on Heist Recordings in 2019 and two EP’s on their own Outplay offshoot ’24 Carrot’ they return again on Heist in 2021 with ‘Blue Steel EP’. Continuing to build on the sound they have evolved throughout the years with a new impulse of creativity.
