Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community: Don’t be shy—propose yourself and reach out to people, venues, and collectives. Don’t let the fear of rejection hold you back. You won’t get a response from everyone, but you don’t need to. One positive reply acknowledging your work is enough to get started

About the mix: The mix was recorded on the 5th of October 2024 in Berlin, at our queer day-time party called Apero Club at Crack Bellmer. Apero Club is a co-run event between the collectives Pillow Princess and What a Playground. It is a laid-back, community-driven queer event. We start during the day with open decks and as we ease into the night our invited artists take over to set the mood within the spectrum of house sounds. 

Our mix rounds across the spectrum of progressive house and trance. It is a b2b between Kidcat and Broccoli, the two co-founders of pillow princess. We regularly play together, and the mix you will hear here is a collection of records we've been gathering from shops across Europe. We usually shop and share our sounds, so mixing them together was extremely fun as we could smoothly create a journey together through progressive soundscapes.

Daisychain 358 - Kidcat & Broccoli

We welcome the co-founder of Pillow Princess (@pillow-princess-berlin) for our new instalement in the BLVSHcast series. Welcome to Kidcat (@k_i_d_c_a_t).

She told us about her mix: "This is a recording of a set I played at Kwia, Berlin, where I ventured into mixing downtempo and ambient for the first time. Finding the right vibe and sounds that felt natural in this setting was initially a challenge, but it became one of my most personally rewarding sets of the year. I explored a new mixing style and uncovered my own soundscapes within ambient music.

This one-hour mix weaves together soft, groovy, otherworldly, and psychedelic beats, accented with ethereal-like vocals.

Enjoy it while soaking in a bubble bath or sharing a relaxed moment with friends over a glass of wine 🍷🍷"

About the mix: "What draws me to House music is its incredible versatility. It’s a genre that seamlessly blends with countless styles, moods, and sounds, forming the backbone of so many musical movements. For this set, I delved into both my old and new records, curating a selection of tracks that reflect different chapters of my journey as a collector. The mix flows through percussive rhythms, deep and groovy vibes, seductive vocals, progressive textures, and some timeless classics—each record is a nod to memories, moments and moods that have shaped my relationship with House music."

Kidcat & Broccoli (she/her)

«  Back-to-back *vinyl only* set by Kidcat and Broccoli, the co-founders of the Dyke/Queer collective Pillow Princess. »

Lara, aka Broccoli, is an Italian-born, Berlin-based DJ, vinyl collector, and co-founder of the queer-dyke collective Pillow Princess. She is known for her distinctive analog vinyl sets, seamlessly blending 90s progressive and acid house with modern sounds. Cat, aka Kidcat, is also a vinyl DJ and co-founder of Pillow Princess, celebrated for her dynamic genre-spanning mixes, which range from disco and house to progressive house, trance, and groovy techno.

Together, they run Pillow Princess, a Berlin-based collective and event series dedicated to fostering safe, inclusive spaces for FLINTA* and queer communities within the electronic music scene.

Notes on the Mix ///

"This mix was recorded on October 26, 2024, in Berlin at the queer party Frog on Ziegerstrasse. It’s a back-to-back vinyl only set by Kidcat and Broccoli, the co-founders of the Dyke/Queer collective Pillow Princess. Together, we explored the rich spectrum of progressive house and trance, flowing from deep, groovy rhythms to hypnotic melodies. Over the years, we’ve curated a collection of proggy records, shopping for and sharing sounds as we go. This mix is a reflection of that journey, blending some of our favorite tracks together. Playing together is always a joy, and this session was no exception—it’s exciting to anticipate what the other will play next and blend our choices into a cohesive, shared soundscape. We hope you'll enjoy listening to is as much as we enjoyed playing and dancing night 🫰"

Cereals Takeover w/ Kidcat & Broccoli // 05.04.2025

As the strawberry full moon swells overhead tonight, kidcat’s on the decks with a special transmission. 

“This full moon mix is a heartfelt return to my roots — a deep dive into the sounds that first pulled me behind the decks. Blending the music that inspires me today with the raw energy of tracks I started out with, it’s a true full-circle moment.” 

Crafted as a hybrid vinyl and digital set, the mix is a charged blend of dark disco, dub disco, EBM, electro, and industrial textures. It’s deep, it’s sexy, it’s intense.
