Ksenia Kamikaza, the founder of Under festival and Platz für Tanz label, is the main moving force of rave culture in Latvia. Spinning records in places like fabric in London, Dommune in Tokyo, losing herself in music and dust at Burning Man, she varies from techno to ambient, from dark disco to IDM. 
In year 2007 she founded the Platz für Tanz collective to bring international sound of electronic music to Latvia. Throughout the years, the label has collaborated with Dasha Rush, Claudio PRC, Bloody Mary, Projekt Gestalten, OCD, Etapp Kyle, Liza Aikin and a list of significant artists follows. Ksenia challenges the most unexpected places for her events: trains, airports, libraries and even churches, — proving that techno is not only music, but the true cultural phenomena.
As a music producer Ksenia Kamikaza has released several EPs, in year 2015 coming to her debut album "Japanese Georgians", which has been true musical experimentation and self-expression: it includes Ksenia’s love and vision of downtempo, IDM, broken beats and techno. The second album “Pirveli Sitkvebi” in collaboration with Georgian artist Antiproject followed in 2022.
In year 2017 Ksenia and a team of true music fans have organized the first electronic music festival called UNDER in Riga. The festival has become a good tradition and is happening annually. 
 The new beginning came in year 2022: Ksenia has founded two labels, releasing Latvian electronic music only. KĀDAS DOMAS is concentrated on ambient and experimental genres, while TĀDA GAITA is about techno, house and electro music.

Style: Live Performance, Installations, Soundscape, Experimental Electronics & Circuit Bending, Live A/V, Techno, IDM, Ambient, Downtempo.
Personal experimentation as a learning method.
Millimetric study of rhythm and its manipulation possibilities to influence moods.
Deep research in abandoned and desolate soundscapes that evocate  "solar" activity at the most unexpected moment, reflected by the rhythmic patterns immersed in watery Fx and other rough moments such as solidified lava into the sea.
Robust and defined low frequencies give strength to a peculiar structure, so that the listener comfortably advine to the proposed melodies. Bring the audience to participate in what it hears.
Sleek, Spacey, Syncopated Sounds & Downtempo.
An emotional journey, pills of melodies, noises and techno drums."
