This DJ from Taipei Taiwan has been DJ'ing for over 12 years now, one of which was in VR. His DJ style is influenced by DJs like Takkyu Ishino, Technasia, Dave Clarke, and Space DJz. His go-to genres are Techno, UK Garage, House, Happy Hardcore, and more. They've played at Monday Relief, Shelter, EXCEED, Club Magenta, and E.C.H.O.

This DJ and Producer from New York has been mixing for 5 years now. Over the course of the 2 years she's been in the scene, she's DJ'ed at many venues. Her go-to genres are Neurohop, Hardgroove, Bass House, Breaks, and probably anything that has BASS. She was inspired to pick up DJing when she realized she had the freedom to mix anything how she wants and when she wants. With that in mind, this mix in particular is also inspired by the expression of variety and freedom to play and be who you are. One of her favorite songs in this mix is TEKNOHAZARD (XUSTRIST, GOS, HAIRBRUSH MIRROR) by RAVEMAIL. 

Outside of DJing, she said she used to longboard a lot but since she's moved she's been playing the piano and yoyoing. I used to want to get good with a yoyo but I could never figure out anything past throwing it down and getting it to come back up. She has been on her own since she was 13 and has traveled across more than half the states in the US, good times. One of her favorite non-EDM songs is The Mars Volta by Dyslexicon.

Finally, she's been working on a couple of projects which include a VRChat wold/Rave venue that hopefully steps away from the common club theme and she has an EP in the works. There's no real set release date for either of those projects but they're in the works.

This DJ and aspiring producer from the United States has been mixing for almost 2 years. They started by accident actually. They were asked to fill in a spot for a friend's event. At the event, their friend Vickyboo heard them mix and asked them to play at more events. As they played more events, their friends became a huge inspiration to continue. They've played at many Venues and events including Rizumu, WCKD, Static, Null, TerrorTorium, BCTO, TUNL, Techno-Tuesday, SnowGrid, and many others that make this too long to list but they appreciate every single venue that has hosted them. 

Some of their favorite genres to mix include Industrial Techno/Hardcore & Amen/Jungle. Most of their sets are based on how they're feeling that day or it depends on if they're trying to convey a story. Their Garage30 mix is a bit of both. They tend to play a more "dark" vibe than a party vibe in order to try to give a different experience than the norm of the community. One of their favorite songs in this mix is Artem Mortuus by Parapher, they really enjoy its abrupt descent into chaos.

DJ'ing has introduced them to many talented people that they've been able to call friends. For them, it's just been about the experience of it all. They've had a blast working and getting to know this scene as a whole, and they couldn't be more appreciative of how they've helped them. Whether it was doing a few charity events they've helped put together or helping them in a time of need. Their heart is full and they could never repay the kindness that has been given to them from it. 


Outside of DJ'ing they're really into writing Avant-garde/free-form poetry and one of their favorite non-edm songs is the peaceful sounds of rain. They also have a youtube channel, and IF you are able to find it, you'll find 7 of their past works as a DeathMetal Vocalist. Good luck.

Finally, they'd like to promote a merging of projects they've created with Garage30 Alumn Woodgraves - formerly known as Akuma. It is called Empty Sessions, and it is a merging of their two projects where DJs play 1 1/2 to 2-hour sets of experimental, conceptual, or story-driven sets. They said it's been a blast working with Woodgraves, and they're excited to see more DJs step out of their comfort zone and play a different kind of set than usual.

This DJ and producer from Dallas, Texas has been mixing for about a year and a half. After attending their first event at Ghost Club they were immediately infatuated with the music, atmosphere, and people. A month later they were turning knobs. They've always loved music, especially when you can feel the DJ's emotion and narrative/style they specialize in. Their favorite genres to mix are Techno and Breakcore and since DJ'ing in VR, they've played at Null, Dead End, Nurtured 2, and multiple standalone events and pop-ups. 

For their Garage30 Mix, they wanted to create an atmosphere that people can enjoy, and they want people to feel the emotion set by the music they play. They use a lot of alternative artists that people don't know so it's like they're discovering a new world. They're going a little bit out of their comfort zone this time around by also including more genres and variety than they usually add to their set.

Finally, they're working on their own Venue, NERV, which will debut sometime in July with a series of pop-ups, and they're also in the middle of a rebrand right now so their names might be different on Twitter and stuff.

Please welcome this week's DJ - ETHN.

This DJ and soon-to-be producer from Minnesota has been mixing for about 7 months. He's always loved electronic music and when he was old enough, would use Limewire to find it and Xfiles to share it. There might be a good chunk of people out there who have no idea what that meant just now which in his words, dates him. He was inspired by his friends Scott Danesi, Schwank, Dino, and Mayhemchan, to start DJ'ing at shows. Once he started to learn more both Mayor of Texas and kitsuneMixes helping him a ton with his DJing and he will always love them and all of his friends for what they got him into. Since DJ'ing in VR he's played at TUNL, Reflect, DDVR, 7D, Rift, Ice Crown, Spyral, DEAD END, Mixify, Bass Station, RNG, and more. Dubstep was initially the genre that he would play, but as he's learned more he's branched out to some other genres. he's excited to show off what he's able to mix with here. For this mix, he wants everyone to feel something and maybe hear something that they maybe have heard before but maybe not. He wasn't able to pick a favorite song in this mix, so he told me that his favorite is "The one that you like the Most".

For him, the most rewarding part about DJing is seeing and hearing that his music has helped make someone's night better, an event more fun, or just seeing a happy crowd enjoying his mix while they dance together in VR. Outside of DJing, he enjoys exploring VR a lot. He's also voice-acted more than once on commercial projects and has modeled in the past. When I asked him what his favorite non-EDM song was, he said in terms of songs that bring out "feelings" it was a tie between Ke$ha's Praying and Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt. If feelings aren't been taken into account, it's Wildfire by Sonata Arctica.

On Aug 25-27 over 20 VRC DJs including this DJ are going to be playing IRL in Minnesota at 2DCon for the entire weekend.  Don't miss this opportunity to see a TON of talent hanging out IRL and in the portal, they will have as well! You can go to 2dcon.net/ for more information.

Lastly, he wants you all to know that he hopes you love this mix as much as he loves EVERYONE. You all are amazing people who make him so proud to be able to say he's a part of this scene. This mix is also dedicated to the memory of his friend Rich.

This DJ who is currently in Kansas but has lived in many states like New York, Oklahoma, Cali, Louisiana, and Texas, has been DJing for about a year and a half now. The community, the friends, and the music all had a hand in what inspired them to pick up DJing. Witnessing others sharing a deep affection for the same genres of music that resonate with them is what they call the most rewarding thing about DJing. Since starting they've played at a LOT of venues, too many to list. But they wanted to say thank you to everyone who has booked them and will book them in the future. You might also know this DJ as the owner of SNOWGRID. They actually started SNOWGRID on their birthday in February, then followed it up with their friend Dino's birthday in April. It was initially supposed to be a one-time event but they continued to do it because of their love of the scene. One of their favorite genres to mix is Techno but they've recently been messing with some lighter themes. When I asked them what was the inspiration or feeling behind this week's mix, they said "it just says 'nice'." 

Outside of DJing, they enjoy creating maps, drawing, producing, and other creative outlets since creativity is what drives them.  And one of their favorite non-EDM songs is Dogs by Noun which they hella recommend. 

You can find their link tree in the description and finally, if you're in the OKC area they're having their first IRL show at a venue sometime and somewhere over there. Keep an eye out on their Twitter for more information.

This DJ from Tuscon Arizona has been mixing for about a year now. He actually first picked up DJ'ing back in 2021 and took a long break before picking it back up in late 2022. Ghostclub was actually his main inspiration for picking up DJ'ing but not for the reason most people would believe. The venue itself played a huge part in his love of the music and scene. He's never really been clubbing, but the whole brutalist apartment setting of GC plus the music they played there gave him this exhilarating experience that made him think "I want to create something like this too." It pushed him to create Wiretap, a group and event that he and his friends put together that happens during JP times. He started to learn how to 3D Model and since he didn't have many connections with DJs in the scene at the time, he pushed himself to learn how to DJ as well to fill in the lineups along with his friends. He enjoys seeing people dance to the music he plays and seeing them have as much fun as he is. Since then he's DJed at venues such as Wiretap, Kyuub, Club Sabotage, SEQUENCE, Ratnobyl, Haneyasume, and Club Rapid.

His favorite genres to mix are Techno, Drum n bass, and Progressive Trance. He's had a lot of hard days at work recently, so he wanted to provide a mix that he could just relax to. Plus, he also took it as a chance to go back to what he started mixing with and see how his skillset has changed since then. One of his favorite songs in this mix is Helix by Nhato.

Outside of DJing, he's recently gotten hooked on baking. He also used to do voice acting, and he's featured in an obscure, indie visual novel that came out back in 2014. It may or may not still be circulating the internet, who knows? 

And, one of his favorite non-EDM songs is Girl by ChouChou and OrcaOrca.

Finally, he would like to invite you all to attend a Wiretap event. He puts it on once in a blue moon and it gets announced solely on his Twitter account, so follow that to hear when the next event happens!

This DJ and aspiring producer from Paterson, New Jersey has been djing for roughly 2 years. While he doesn't get a chance to speak with them often, one of his main influences for DJing came from his two older brothers from Spain, who used to be DJs in the 90s. His inspiration ascended, though, when he visited Ghost Club for the first time.

After finding out his friend Pod was starting to create a DJ venue he knew it was his time to start mixing. Since then he's played at venues such as Kyuub, Sabotage, Monday Relief, Club Magenta, Cocosworks, Ethos, RNG, ICECROWN, and WIRETAP which he helps run with POD. Some of his favorite genres to mix are House, Tribal, & J-core, and for today's mix, he has curated some tracks that show the type of style you'll find in his sets. One example of this is Floorplan Extended Remix of Glory by Dames Brown & Waajeed which is his favorite song in today's mix. While DJ'ing in itself is rewarding, he finds that meeting new people and making connections is probably his favorite part about the whole thing.

Outside of DJing, he says that being a nerd about Tokusatsu is his favorite activity. You'll find that if you see him live that all of his visuals are various clips from different Tokusatsu shows it's pretty cool. And his favorite non-EDM song is Bamboleo by the Gipsy Kings.

This DJ and aspiring producer from Florida has been mixing for 2 and a half years. Ever since he was a kid living in a rural area the only kind of music he was exposed to was whatever came on the radio. There was always this one station, though, that had other DJs playing their mixes which made him open up to DJing. He would listen to that station as often as he could to hear new DJs and jam out. Some of his favorite genres to mix are Jersey Club, Electro, Club, Techno, and Breaks. He's also played at venues such as Heist, SnowGrid, ZU, and Rythem. For today's mix, he wanted to showcase the style he's developed after almost 3 years of DJing. He also wanted to thank everyone for giving him the chance that he's gotten in this space. 

Finally, he has a new venue called East Coast Therapy. I wasn't given any more info other than the name so you'll most likely have to keep up with his Twitter for more information. With that said and with nothing else left to promote, please welcome this week's DJ - 1Z.

This DJ and producer from Seattle has been mixing for 11 years. Starting off life as a musician in multiple bands, he started getting into music production when Skrillex was first putting American audiences on to dubstep. Being a performing artist, he reluctantly picked up a Numark Mixtrack and then started to learn how to play out the music he was making. Since then he's fallen in love with DJ'ing. He feels that anyone can mix, but not everyone can tell a story or take you on a journey with a mix. Nothing rewards him more than finishing a mix and feeling like people "got it" His go-to genres are anything at 150 BPM, a bunch of Drum n Bass, and he's working hard on incorporating speedcore. This mix specifically mainlines drum and bass. Bouncing off of that, this mix sets the stage as the summer's end mix, which segues from hard and fun summer songs to autumnal Seasonal Affective Disorder drum and bass. Outside of DJ'ing he works as an engineer on an oil rig. Thankfully the Hibernia S.E. rig has top-grade Internet connectivity and ample space in the accommodation quarters for VR use. 

He said he's going to be taking steps to remind everyone that he produces music. Throughout the year of 2024 he will be releasing all the stuff he's been writing and stockpiling in 2023. Other than that he hopes people come through to all the upcoming OFFSHORE shows, and the various other shows he will be at during the rest of the year. I hope you all get to visit OFFSHORE too!
