BIO:
Two creative minds capable of unifying the sensory spheres of sight and sound into a single element. This is the synaesthesia that connected Laura and Thea alias Hēi project, an all-female duo “one of the most promising on the Italian Berlin scene” (cit. Parkett Channel)
The project was born in Berlin in 2018 from the union between Laura, Milanese pianist and composer, and Thea, Berlin director and founder of CØR, an all-female film production house. Always passionate about electronic music, the two take over a former audiovisual project, Blaenkminds, and lead it to a more universal dimension, giving life to Hēi project.
/hēiː/ is the phonetic transcription of the Chinese character 黑 which oscillates between dark, sinister and forbidden, illegal. In fact, the duo surfs on the edges of peak time techno, ‘hacking’ elements of electroclash, industrial and breakbeat influence giving it a face through uncompromising visual productions.
The ambitious purpose of their performances is to bring the clubbing atmosphere into a sensory journey made of expressive shapes and multiform languages, through the mixing of self-produced filmic narratives with refined and often eclectic selections of electronic music. A courageous challenge that continues to find the engagement of an audience that is willing to indulge in a dreamlike flow made of sounds and images.
The much sought-after musical proposal of Laura and the visual contents produced and directed by Thea for international artists such as Kaiserdisco, Karotte, Steve Bug, Nur Jaber, Marco Resmann etc., have opened the doors of some of the most renowned clubs of the berlinese techno scene like Watergate, OHM, Berghain Kantine, Funkhaus, soon approaching more far-reaching horizons, from the NY Verboten to the Shanghai ex Elevator.
During the pandemic they embrace the path of record production and in a few months they print the first vinyl on a local Milanese label with the acid techno remix "Intro - Bereshit" mentioned several times by the DJaneMag and Parkett channel press.
And this is only the beginning.

Gold Code aka Raf Zevallos-Crowe, is a DJ/producer based in Orange County, California. A lifelong music lover, collector, and DJ, Raf's eclectic sets run the gamut of dance music with a base in-house and techno.

Growing up in 1980s Los Angeles, he was initially inspired by radio mix shows and DJs such as Doc Martin, Rob One, Michael "Mixxin" Moore, and 1580 KDAY Mixmasters. Moving to San Francisco in 1992, he immersed himself in its underground scene. Attending parties lead to working them and eventually to djing. He played his first warehouse in 1996 and spent the next 10 years djing and producing some of San Francisco’s most infamous parties and club nights.

"Gold Code" was initially founded as a music blog in 2007. The site showcased past, present, and future classics as well as his personal edits and DJ mixes. 

In 2009, he focused his efforts on music production and a live show. He adopted "Gold Code" as his moniker and debuted a well-received live set at the celebrated “As You Like It” parties. Remixes soon followed for Nude Photo Music and SubSensory labels culminating with his debut release, "The Day After" with remixes by Audioelectronic, Basskittens, Chris Fierenze, and Jonah Sharp.

2015 brought a move back to Southern California and a radio show, OMAKASE. Currently broadcasting live on Sunday from 6-8 pm [Pacific] on KUCI 88.9 FM, and livestreaming on www.twitch.tv/omakaseshow, showcasing the art of mixing past, present, and future classics.
