Electronic music afficionado for more than 20 years and DJ for more than 10 years, DJ Martin Smith likes his tunes deep, deeper, deepest. Though his personal taste reaches all sorts of music and intensities, as a DJ he'll stick to the likes of no-bullshit techno. house, dub, ambient, electro and the likes. Favorite labels include Ostgut Ton, Planet E, Innervisions, Kompakt, Modern Love, Border Community, MDR, Peacefrog, R&S, Pampa and too much more to mention. Favorite club is still Berghain/Panorama where he finds the music and atmosphere to be in harmony with his being. A regular spinner at the now defunct Next Groove radio show in Leiden, he's currently on the lookout for a place to give his love for music space and time.

Nora was born in Essen and raised in a small town near Münster in North Rhine-Westphalia. After her studies – amongst others for three years in Australia and a short two year working experience in Luxemburg – she finally moved to Cologne in 2017.

Art has always been fascinating to Nora. She started to paint since she has been 14, she has been dancing since she was able to listen to music and in 2016 she fell in love with Techno. In 2020 she finally started to turn the tables. 

Nora loves art that makes her smile even on the rainiest day. Her paintings are as colorful, bright and diverse as her sets. They come with a great variation within the melodic techno genre, bouncy tech house such as Criminal Bassline or Heinz Music and deep and dark techno such as Jaw Dropping, Jannowitz, Subios, Phobos, Terminal M or AlpaKa MuziK. 

Nora loves the sound of Karim Alkhayat and Anahit Vardanyan. Their hard and at the same time epic and dramatic and touching peaks are exactly what she likes. Also the kinky style of Joseph Disco and Daniel Jaeger are just her style.

Deep, melodic house music such as represented by Solee, Space Motion, Brascon and Dizharmonia are definitely heartwarming moments she builds into her sets.

Her sets take you on a journey filled with dark, energetic and melodic techno sounds and deep vibes! Find out yourself!
