MAYA is a DJ and performance artist based in Lviv who has already performed at events such as Palyvo and Motanka and contributed to the opening of Noir Nights, a bar in Lviv that is quickly becoming a cultural landmark.

Passionate about dark, enigmatic, and occult atmospheres, MAYA’s sets are a deep dive into immersive soundscapes, blending genres like EBM, industrial, dark disco, and dark wave. She finds her true inspiration in the cyberpunk aesthetic, drawing heavily from iconic works such as Blade Runner and Ghost in the Shell.

Guided by a fascination with futuristic dystopias and a profound appreciation for artificial intelligence, MAYA crafts her performances to transport listeners into a world where technology meets mystery, creating a unique experience that resonates deeply with her vision of a dystopian, yet hopeful, future.

Pierre Berge-Cia - Reboria Fanatica [Mutant Modality]

И не обратились люди в бегство.
Кто-то застыл — с лицом, иссечённым страхом.
Кто-то сгорел, расплавившись в экстазе.
Кто-то исчез, растворившись в безумии.
И в пляске без имени, в круге без конца
они топтали прах мира,
что канул в небытие 
под звуки несущегося хаоса.

Some stood frozen — faces carved by fear.
Some burned, melting into ecstasy.
Some vanished, dissolved into madness.
And in a nameless dance, in a circle without end,
they trampled the ashes of a world
that had fallen into oblivion
to the sound of roaring chaos.

«Когда наступает тьма, стены становятся тёплыми и светящимися, дрожат и пульсируют жизнью внутри — движущейся, как музыка, скрытной, богатой и горячей.»
(Конрад Айкен)

«As darkness falls, the walls grow luminous and warm, the walls tremble and glow with the lives within them moving, moving like music, secret and rich and warm.»

Pre-order: https://depthrequest.bandcamp.com/album/if-you-do-then-when

Depth.Request proudly announces the debut full-length album from French electronic artist Pierre Berge-Cia — a culmination of two years of dedicated experimentation and creative exploration. This inaugural LP represents a significant milestone in Pierre Berge-Cia’s musical journey, showcasing his innovative approach to electronic music.

Crafted through experimental processes and delving into themes of tension, control, and movement, "If You Do, Then When?" unfolds as a visceral journey through the complexities of bodily and sensory experience. Each track is designed to reflect the human body in all its shapes and forms, using innovative sounds and structures to evoke physicality and movement, and aiming to resonate with listeners on a deeply corporeal level.

The album was produced using a combination of the Elektron Digitone synth, a Mackie CR1604 mixer, a Shure SM57 microphone, and a limited selection of digital plugins to maintain sonic consistency. Mastering was handled by Pierre’s close friend, Stefan Brown — also known as "Lesser Of". His expertise as a top-tier sound engineer at Abbey Road Studios helped shape the LP’s pristine and powerful sound identity. Additionally, the tracks were tested and refined using some of the electronic scene’s most beloved sound systems, ensuring an impactful club experience. 

The album’s artwork, created by Pierre Berge-Cia himself, is a reinterpretation of one of his favorite art performances: "Rest Energy" by Marina Abramović and Ulay. The tension of the drawn bow and the close-up framing of the subject evoke a palpable sense of danger and emotional intensity, mirroring the physical and psychological strains within human connection. Pierre used his own hands as the model, infusing the artwork with a deeply personal and intimate touch that amplifies the psychic gravity and thematic cohesion of the album.

Pierre Berge-Cia’s debut LP is a multi-sensory experience that challenges listeners to feel sound in its most physical and affective form.

Mild Affect is the founder of Umbra, a Moscow-based promo collective focused on industrial techno, EBM, noise, and other forms of dark, abrasive electronic music. Today, the dark electronic scene in Russia is going through a deep crisis: clubs are closing, access to international platforms like SoundCloud is blocked, and cultural isolation is growing. Despite this, Umbra continues to organize events and nurture a space for raw, transgressive sound.

Although Mild Affect began making music only in late 2023, he represents a new generation of Russian artists emerging from the ruins of a once-vibrant underground. His work channels a sense of urgency and resistance shaped by the harsh realities of the current cultural climate. Through this mix, he offers a glimpse into the atmosphere and defiance of a scene fighting to survive — and reconnect with the global underground.
