Welcome to the newest member of our little family: Coco Coquelicot!

Coco Coquelicot loves to blend genres together, infusing off-the-radar electronic gems with bass-heavy grooves often sprinkling in unknown or forgotten pop songs to top it off. She spent her teen years swooning to jazz sounds and then landed her first residency at rock café Warhol. During her later years as an art student she discovered her love for the Queer scene, which led her towards an eclectic and electronic style. 

A set from Coco will undoubtedly create an environment of liberation and empowerment, as she is always looking at ways to unify different sounds, scenes and people. After years of working for underground parties she became one of the programmer for Relate Radio in 2021 as well as the first female resident of KopjeK. Expect a genre fluid set full of energy!

More Than Me arised when two guys, from different parts of the Netherlands, found each other in a support group for unreleased track IDs.

For this podcast, they went for a more ravey set that is high in energy. An approach they'd like to play in front of a crowd.
The set is recorded in Berlin, where they've lived for the past six months and got a lot of inspiration from.

"We wish we had fewer doubts in our lives, less of what drives us to despair, less peevishness. We long for more moments that let our souls bounce, when our hearts beat that one beat faster. More ease, love and tears of joy - all of this as much as possible More is More"

Rosalie and Vera have walked through the meadow of this crazy life since 2013, not only as part of a musical duo but one in their private lives as well. They clicked from the get go and started off as partners in crime on Berlins notorious dance floors. Always front row and with the beat in their hearts. They soon realized they wanted more! It was clear very early that their place was not destined to be in front of the Dj but behind the decks. 

Then and there they scraped together their last money and bought their first Dj equipment. Soon after they went on a wild ride through the cities main clubs, touring the country and seizing every festival opportunity.

In 2017 Mehr is Mehr joined the Wuza Crew and have since turned a lot of parties into magical places together. Categorizing is usually not their thing but if you had to describe their sound it would go something like this: driving crisp beats paired with melodic elements - techno without monotony and a never ceasing mischievous smile.
