Someone thinks that Russia is a mystery land known for bears & alcoholic freaks. But the true story is that Russia is full of creative & independent artists. Exactly like Helga.

Helga professionally dj’s from 1999. Playing at best Moscow's places, resident of Deep Mix Moscow Radio and Internet Radio RTS.FM. She became one of key figures in Russian electronic scene. From that time her life completely changed for frequent gigs outside Moscow, sets together with foreign stars. Logically, promoters started to invite Helga on big festivals like SonneMondSterne (Germany), Fusion (Germany), Global Gathering (UK), Kazantip (Ukraine) and many more. Her gig list grew bigger & bigger, so she eventually played with Richie Hawtin, Mathew Jonson, The Orb, Superpitcher, Swayzak, Steve Bug, Reinhard Voigt, Ellen Allien, The Hacker & other known artists. Russian clubbers recognized in Helga real professional dj who can rock the dancefloor right. Helga releases several mixes, they are rare & highly valuable cd's to have.

Again Helga is professional dj who knows exactly what to do with crowd & doesn't even try to act as a producer. Her mission is to play music in intelligent way, support vinyl & stay true to herself. And if Anton Kubikov from SCSI-9 is a King, so she's Queen of Russian club scene with European musical mentality.

Welcome real dj who doesn't play in trends, but knows everything about them. Welcome pro Helga.


Neko misli da je Rusija misteriozna zemlja poznata po medvedima i alkoholisanim frikovima. Ali istina je drugačija: Rusija je prepuna kreativnih i nezavisnih umetnika. Baš poput Helge.
Helga je profesionalni dj od 1999. godine, rezident Radia Deep Mix Moscow i Internet radia RTS.FM. Postala je ključna ličnost elektronske scene u Rusiji. Od tada njen život se potpuno promenio: učestali gigovi van Moskve, setovi sa stranim zvezdama. Logično je da su promoteri počeli da je pozivaju na velike festivale poput SonneMondSterne (Nemačka), Fusion (Nemačka), Global Gathering (UK), Kazantip (Ukrajina) i mnoge druge. Lista njenih gigova postaje sve veća što dovodi do nastupa sa Richie Hawtin, Mathew Jonson, The Orb, Superpitcher, Swayzak, Steve Bug, Reinhard Voigt, Ellen Allien, The Hacker i ostalim poznatim umetnicima. Ruski klaberi su prepoznali u Helgi pravog profesionalnog dj-a, koji zna kako da razdrma dancefloor. Helga je dosad izdala nekoliko mikseva, koji su retki i veoma vredni cd-i.
Helga je takođe profesionalni dj koji tačno zna šta da radi sa publikom i ne pokušava da igra ulogu producenta. Njena misija je da svira muziku na inteligentni način, da podržava vinile i ostane sebi verna. I ako je Anton Kubikov iz SCSI-9 kralj, onda je ona kraljica ruske klupske scene sa evropskim muzičkim mentalitetom.
Pozdravite pravog dj-a koji ne svira po trendovima, ali zna sve o njima. Pozdravite Helgu profesionalca!

MAX GRABKE is a representative of the electronic underground scene with more than 20 years of experience and a huge baggage of music compilations. In his every set, you can instantly recognize his style, sustained over the years, where the soft atmospheric-melodic component, aesthetically woven into the technological rigor of the rhythmic pattern, creates a truly unique structure for the flight of his exclusive mixes. He began to form his unique and innovative style from high-quality electronic minimal music since the early 2000s. In 2004, he became a resident of the legendary Moscow club MIX, which was part of the "Deepmix.ru" project, known throughout the world for its radio broadcasting. As a result, Max joined the cooperation with the Moscow radio, developing the style of "Deepmix.ru" with exclusive sets from the studio "OBO & HOBOS". In 2006, he received an offer to become a resident at the Shanti club, where he later co-organized the "Minimal for lonley man" parties. These events delighted the Moscow public and brought an instructive wave of minimal techno education to the masses. This was followed by a constant and extensive touring activity throughout Russia, as well as residency in almost all the best clubs in Moscow, fixed by releases of official mixes: “Minimal for lonley men. Vol.2", (Shanti, 2006), "Sub-technic" (Mix, 2007), "3.14" (Shanti, 2008), "Tech it easy Collection" (Solianka, 2008), "Step inside" ( Arma17, 2009). In 2008, he participated in the development of another well-known radio stream "Rts.fm". At the same time, in collaboration with Kammerton, he implemented a studio project - a universal mix based on Darren Aronofsky's film "Pi". It took half a year of painstaking studio work, more than 200 vinyl records, samples, loops and musical fragments, assembled under the concept of "3.14" in an hour-long techno mix. By 2010, Max (a.k.a. "Broken Fingers") expanded his musical range to include experimental hip hop electronics. Together with DJ Krlow (aka "Shiny Boots"), an ex-producer from the Russian rap group "Krovostok", he launched a series of parties "Twil". Through live performances, exclusive artists of the aforementioned genre such as Bullion, Floating Points, Fulgeance, Onra, they helped to introduce a fresh look at the development of the global alternative electronic scene to the Moscow public. Since 2011, Max has begun to spread his musical activity throughout Europe, gaining momentum at the performances of such festivals and clubs as: Sonne Mond Sterne, Meeresrausch, Deep in the Forest, Katerholzig, Kater Blau, Chalet, Welt Echo, Sektor Evolution, Folklor , Südpol, Moloch, Tante Emma, 102, Sabotage, City Club, Strand 22, Tunnel, Golden Gate, Jaz, A38, etc. At the same time, he worked hard on the project "150 Session's for Deepmix Moscow Radio", where from 2011 to 2013 for almost two years he implemented one session every 3 days without a break, it was a real marathon-journey through the world of treasures in the depths of deep sound. Subsequently, several pages, in one of the issues of the cult German magazine "Groove", were devoted to the creative path of Max, as well as the formation and unprecedented contribution to the development of the unique sound of "Deepmix.ru". In 2013, he released a collaboration with AntonZap, which is published on Anton's Ethereal Sound label. Since mid-2014, he has collaborated with the German team "Manege8" and the heart of its ideology City Club. Since 2015, Max has been organizing significant events with the Moscow "T&K" team, including the "Meets" festival, in the cult project of the unique Moscow club Rodnya. In 2016, he worked closely in organizing events with a community of old friends, such as Sil from Easy Changes - "Brothers", Lega - "237 Family" and Ghetto Po - "Les Copains D'abord" from the Swiss Alps. In 2017, he took part in the opening of the representative office of the Swiss "Rts.fm" in Lausanne, where the development of the project is carried out under his coordination as part of the "33 Soundsystem" team. Since 2020, Max has been collaborating with the Hidden art space and the Central Park club in Sochi.

Created in 1996, Playin' 4 the City is the brainchild of the multi instrumentist and producer Olivier Portal, a truly Deep house lover. Besides his own production, he has collaborated with the likes of DJ Deep, Franck Roger among others on labels such as Straight-up, Distance, Seasons, La Rosière, Music 101. His latest release is on La Mamie's records  mamiesrecordsparis.bandcamp.com/album/playin-4-the-city-night-shades-ep. His triple vinyl compilation "The Music & the Rhythm" is now released on BRS Records, Paris.
