Xpresso Martina @ Kicks & Hugs x Renate IV, 2nd of March 2024, Berlin, Germany


Despite being a relatively fresh face in the Berlin scene, Xpresso Martina has quickly been making a name for themself, seducing dancefloors with eclectic and genre-bending sets since 2022. Their unique track selection promises a flavourful blend of nostalgic Synthwave, New Beat and EBM complemented by cosmic acid basslines, uplifting, progressive House and the occasional Italo Disco gem. @xpressomartina

Big thanks to Intergalactic FM for spinning my Italo Disco Mix on the Cybernetic Broadcasting System on May 3rd, 2025!

ITALO DISCO MIX

What an incredible Sunday it was once again!
Even though the weather was a bit colder than we had all hoped, and the rain made an appearance, the energy from the crowd never faded. You kept the vibe alive from start to finish!

I kicked things off with some house and Italo tracks to set the mood. As the weather got heavier, I felt like pushing things a bit harder and faster than usual and you all loved it. The response was unreal!

I truly loved every single moment. A huge thank you to everyone who came out and made it so special.

And as always, feel free to ask for any track IDs! 😊

Recording of my performance at Cosy Festival 2025! Such an amazing festival, people, place and vibes <3 

Doctr - Live At  Cosy Festival - 13th July 2025

Aurora – Hypnotic Deep Trance Journey

Aurora ist ein tiefgehendes, atmosphärisches Trance-Album, das die Zuhörer:innen auf eine hypnotische Reise durch pulsierende Basslines, fließende Arpeggios und sphärische Soundlandschaften mitnimmt. Jeder Track baut behutsam Spannung auf, verschmilzt treibende Rhythmen mit melancholisch-melodischen Synth-Layern und entfaltet eine tranceartige Wirkung, die sowohl für nächtliche Clubsets als auch für introspektives Hören geschaffen ist. Inspiriert von den Farben und Bewegungen des Nordlichts, reflektiert Aurora den Zauber eines kosmischen Tanzes – emotional, treibend und zeitlos.
