BIO
Metaraph is a multidisciplinary artist based in Berlin, known for weaving together sound, movement, and visual expression into an immersive and emotionally charged artistic universe. As a DJ, music producer, dancer, jewellery designer, and performance artist, Metaraph blurs boundaries across mediums, genres, and dimensions.
Their journey began in London’s underground queer scene in 2017, first as a performer and soon after as a DJ. Since 2018, they’ve taken their craft across Europe and beyond—appearing on Boiler Room, delivering hypnotic sets at multiple Hor Berlin showcases, and reaching audiences across South and North America, Asia, and Australia.
Now signed to Berlin’s iconic Bpitch label, Metaraph is a resident artist for Ellen Allien’s We Are Not Alone, Gegen (Berlin), Club Elastica (Vilnius), and Riktus (Lisbon)—each platform becoming a vessel for their deeply transformative sound.
Their sonic journeys are fast, raw, ethereal, melancholic, and powerful—designed to unearth inner chaos and elevate it into higher consciousness. Blending techno, ambient, trance, and psy with sharp grooves and haunting melodies, Metaraph’s music doesn’t just defy genre—it devours it.
A master of metamorphosis, Metaraph doesn’t simply perform—they transmit. Their visceral connection to sound dissolves barriers and births new dimensions, where vulnerability becomes power, and experimentation is the only rule.
