With his sincere charm and melodic tunes Arjuna brings a smile to the Dutch melodic house and techno scene. Like no other he knows how to stow a particular feel out of the speakers, seeping in your ears and unleashing emotions with his own distinctive melodic and energetic style. His productions move on the borders of deep house and tech-house, saturated with intense synths and melancholic storytelling melodies. Dark electronic elements get alternated with warm, dreamy sentiments, inciting people to both listen with their eyes closed and dance euphorically.

Evangelist of everything Deep Tech and Groove.

Berlin-based duo Booka Shade, aka Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeier, have carved out a reputation as one of the most celebrated electronic acts to come out of Europe over the past two decades. 

With their beginnings in Frankfurt and their sights originally on synth-pop, the duo Booka Shade quickly gained a strong following within electronic music, and in 2002 the pairing formed the now legendary dance label Get Physical Music (together with M.A.N.D.Y., Thomas ‘DJ T.’ Koch and Peter Hayo), where they would have a platform for their own music. 

Three years later, in 2005, their EP’s ‘Mandarine EP’ and ‘Body Language’ - the latter co-produced with M.A.N.D.Y. - launched Booka Shade into the stratosphere with both EPs becoming international successes, whilst the following years soon welcomed an extensive body of work featuring a combination of stand out albums and singles that quickly achieved further global success.

Since their break-through performance at Sónar in 2005, Booka Shade have earned huge recognition with their innovative live shows, even being named one of Resident Advisor's Top 5 live acts in the world in 2010. They have opened for legendary acts such as Depeche Mode and Kraftwerk, whilst headlining stages at the likes of Coachella, Glastonbury, Rock Werchter, and Red Rocks just to name a few. In recent years, the band has appeared amongst the likes of DJ Mag’s ‘Alternative Top 100 DJ List’ (2018), whilst their notable live sets have led to key mentions amongst a host of distinguished festival reviews and round-ups, including placement within DJ Mag’s ’10 Unforgettable Sets From The History Of Exit Festival’.

Booka Shade were also inducted into Pete Tong's BBC Radio 1 Hall of Fame, having received strong support from the station throughout their careers, playing at both the ‘40 Years of Radio 1’ celebration with Annie Nightingale and the ‘20 Years of Essential Mix’ party, whilst also mixing Pete Tong’s ‘All Gone Ibiza’ compilation album. 

The duo’s fan base is in no way restricted to electronic music enthusiasts, with great success playing slots at the Montreux Jazz Festival, Lollapalooza, and more by utilising their massive crossover potential, which is as evident in their billings as it is in their remix credits, including acts like Depeche Mode, Moby, Hot Chip, Kings of Leon, Woodkid, The Knife and many more.

Add to the mix their Blaufield Music imprint, founded in 2013, and it’s clear and easy to see the pairing's musical knowledge not only as producers but also adept A&R’s, with releases to date on the imprint from both emerging and established talent alongside their own productions resulting in a string of releases and collaborations that can be regularly found amongst the upper end of Beatport’s Top 100 charts and championed by many of the industry’s biggest names.

Twenty years, dozens of EP’s and six albums later, Booka Shade have become more than a household name, they have become synonymous with the spirit which drives electronic music and have set a precedent to which electronic music is still held to today.

A natural ear for the deep and groovy, for the exciting and innovative, an inclination towards daring production and a desire to push boundaries, 
Substance, quality, and diversity are the driving forces behind this artist, an artist with a vision to provide quality music for the masses

DJ Velvet is a powerhouse behind the decks — a DJ who brings fire, groove and pure intensity to every stage he commands. Since stepping into the underground world of electronic music in 1988, Velvet has built a reputation as a fearless performer with a deep connection to the darker, harder side of the scene. His rise was fast, his fanbase global, and his dedication unstoppable.

From the very beginning, his talent stood out. After two standout seasons, Velvet made the bold decision to go all in — a choice that launched him into major clubs worldwide by 1995. His sets became known for their explosive power and raw energy, pushing boundaries and igniting dance floors night after night. Whether producing or performing, Velvet lives for the underground and continually pushes himself to evolve.

Velvet’s sound hits with force: driving Techno, groovy Tech House, hypnotic Dark Techno and hard-hitting Hard Techno. He is a master at building tension, controlling dynamics, and unleashing relentless waves of rhythm and energy. His flawless crowd-reading ability and fierce stage presence make every performance a full-body experience, leaving no dancer untouched.

A defining moment in his journey came in 1992, when DJ Velvet was invited to play alongside DJ Jean at the legendary Club IT in Amsterdam. It was a breakthrough that pulled him deep into Amsterdam’s vibrant nightlife — a scene that inspired him, shaped him, and still fuels his creative fire today.

Today, DJ Velvet stands strong as a respected and ever-evolving force in the global techno community. With decades of experience, unmatched passion, and a relentless drive, he continues to push dance floors to their limits — raising the energy, intensifying the night, and leaving every crowd hungry for more.

When he enrolled in music school at age 10, he started playing the saxophone and studied classical music and jazz. But being inspired by the art of turntablism and beat mixing he ventured behind the decks a few years later. And at the age of 19 Lucien Foort took the world by storm, when he released rave anthem “Quadrophonia” in ‘89.
