Aérea Negrot needs no introduction; she’s a Berlin institution. Whether starring in a film, appearing on stage belting out a live set or werqing the CDJs, she permeates pure artistic energy. Her visibility has influenced a new generation of trans artists who have flocked to the German Hauptstadt. She first met Buttons & WHOLE Festival organizer, Jacob Meehan, back in 2014 on his first trip from Chicago to Berlin (where he shared the futon alongside Shaun J. Wright). Who would’ve known back then that their bed & breakfast scenario would turn into the city’s hawtest B2B a decade later.

Live recording from Fandango on the Beach, Plötzensee, 6th June 2023

Next up on our live mix series is @jacob-meehan who played the perfect house loaded beachside set on one of our sunnier Tuesday’s this summer. Jacob is part of the organising team behind Whole Festival and Buttons - events that inspire us with their purpose, care, and attention to detail. It’s no surprise the same traits and dancefloor mileage shine in Jacob’s set.

I made this mix as a reflection of what I’m playing out and about lately, with a focus on layering multiple tracks, long blends and carving out tension and release amongst the layers. It’s a mix of old and new, keeping things silky, finding tenderness in harshness, all different styles working in tandem, I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed making it

For 135th entry in the Honcho Podcast Series, we welcome @ketia! ketia is an up-to-no-good self-assigned cyborg, has a keen ear for new and exciting music, alongside a curious, invested approach to community building within the Lisbon and Berlin club scene. Known for their infamous intimate invite-only kit ket events in Lisbon and one of the glitches behind the label and collective, 'kaptcha'. In Berlin, where they reside, they’re deep and sweetly entangled with the modern rituals happening at Berlin’s new ambient listening bar kwia – ketia helps hold space for a different way of connecting through high fidelity sound and intimacy outside of the usual club dynamics. 

Sonically enticed by syncopated drums and twisted rhythms, driven house with groove and breaks married with rave nostalgia. ketia thrives on genre-bending beats connected through vocal-infused tracks that allow for unique storytelling.

Today, we exclusively bring you the full live recording of @riva999’s set at our 100th UNFOLD.

14 hours deep into our biggest ever event, every nook and cranny of our building was busy playing host to bustling dancers from every corner of the planet. Just as the clock struck 06:00 and the earliest of arrivals began to show reluctant, tentative signs of tiring, up stepped our Resident RIVA into the booth to deliver the kind of set to power our dance floor deep into its second day. 

Treating the Steam Room with some of the sassiest sonics our sibling space has been lucky enough to behold, our Resident produced a masterclass in progressive house and trance for our centenary celebration. One you can now experience for yourself.

‘UNFOLD C - RIVA (LIVE RECORDING)’ is now available to listen to on our FOLD SoundCloud.

This weeks mix is from @d1rcceu an IsBurning and Amsterdam dancefloor favorite. 
Always delvering the best energy and dancemoves and also a super DJ! 

Dircceu is a Brazilian multi-artist and DJ based in Amsterdam, originally from São Paulo. He constructs his own narratives — blending techno, house, disco, breakbeats, and Afro-diasporic sounds with emotional depth, heritage, and futurism.

With this mix he showcases his diverse taste while blending it smoothly and takes you higher with infections melodies and grooves! 

Track highlight:

Paranoid London – Loving U (AAAA)
This track is part of a hypnotic, seductive tension groove that evokes the essence of classic acid house, with unpolished sounds and rebellious attitude. It's aesthetics are influenced by early Chicago acid. I chose it to represent the atmosphere I like to build: sensual, energetic, nostalgic and underground. It blends movements with immersive introspection, guiding the listener into a dancing journey state of mind.

Thanks Flavio<3

September opens with a techno journey signed by Luigi Di Venere.
Born under the Southern Italian sun and now based in Berlin, Luigi has been shaping ecstatic dancefloor moments, from the magic of Cocktail d’Amore to the sacred energy of Berghain/Panorama Bar and the freedom of Lab.oratory.

His sound blends explosive and cosmic landscapes, reflected in projects like Banana Moon (with Massimiliano Pagliara), SolidAir (with Jules Etienne), and Affekt Unit (with Neu Verboten). Beyond that, Luigi curates euphoric nights such as Maximum Joy and Power Dance Club, manages the London Phonica Records store at The Store X, and runs Philoxenia Records, the beautiful label created together with Neu Verboten.

But what truly makes him stand out is not only the path he’s built: behind the decks, there’s a luminous person whose energy radiates warmth and beauty, turning every set into a shared experience.

This techno set is his invitation to surrender to the rhythm, to let the vibrations take over, and to discover how powerful it feels to lose yourself in music.

You are beautiful 🌹
