===================================
Over nearly a decade, NINZE & OKAXY established a significant and experimental sound which they also call 'Ketapop' by creating a spherical, yet melancholic atmosphere with a distinctive deepness and complex sound patterns. Noises from out of space and moving baselines stirring up the creatures who got lost in the duos slow sound, taking the audience to places where they haven’t been before and leaving them in gentle confusion. As part of the Laut&Luise family and doing their magic at their other live project Wide Awake, NINZE & OKAXY got to enchant the crowds all around Europe and from South to North America. Not only did the dyad gather impressions and inspiration from their various trips but also by working together with other artists such as Dwig, Christoph Schwarzwälder, Mira, Feathered Sun, Canson and Oceanvs Orientalis, constantly developing their sound to continue their musical journey. Since 2017 Ninze & Okaxy started their own event series called: 'Together' which is today on of the biggest parties of the Leipzig.
Furthermore they are were part of "Lush Life" and the “In Höchsten Höhen“ Crew, which are responsible for many memorable electronic parties & festivals around Leipzig in Germany.

since may 2012

Junki Inoue (Cartulis / Toi.Toi.Musik)

Junki Inoue is one of the youngest of the new crop of ‘digger’ DJs, who are gradually making their names through sharing their personal interpretations of the history of electronic dance music. A dedicated collector of vinyl for many years, Junki is comfortable playing sets at any time of the night and in any location: warm up, peak, closing, after-hours; warehouse or open air. Inoue’s sound stands out for its natural combination of Japanese and European traditions: precise, spare and elegant but warm and welcoming; deep and hypnotic for the mind, but always with energy and drive for the body. 

Inoue caught the music bug young and was a keen collector and DJ of various styles of rock as a teenager. However, his induction to underground electronic music came at scene-legends (and now Berlin ex-pats) Yuki Masda and Yone-Ko’s Cabaret nights at Unit, Tokyo. There he was introduced to some of the genuine masters of stylish, understated and elegant techno and house DJing: Fumiya Tanaka, Daniel Bell, Jan Krueger and Zip. All remain key influences to this day. Inspired by this approach, at the age of 20 Inoue established his own party, Heike at Tokyo clubbing institution Womb.

A desire to fully experience different cultures brought Junki to London in 2012. There, Inoue met the Toi Toi Musik crew, with whom a mutual understanding and respect was rapidly developed. He has been resident DJ at the party for the past two years. London has proven itself to be Inoue's spiritual and cultural home, with the city providing more freedom to express himself as an individual than can easily be found at home in Japan. 

Rave came alive to Junki in London, where he witnessed a new wave of artists and DJing forming firsthand: DJs like Nicolas Lutz, Andrew James Gustav and Gwenan showed that the elegant grooves that had caught Inoue’s attention back in Tokyo could be created from a broader musical palette, with fewer formal rules. Junki is now well on his way to establishing his name alongside his inspirations, with regular gigs alongside these DJs. The past year has seen him play sets in major cities and at major clubs across the world: Club der Visionaere / Hoppetosse in Berlin,Fabric in London,CONCRETE in Paris,Closer in Kiev,Club Guesthouse in Bucharest,Phonoteque in Montevideo (where he was selected to open the 2017 season), regular spots in Zurich, gigs throughout Italy (Milan, Venice, Rome). Much more is sure to lie ahead for this positive and unassuming talent.

“Don’t be scared to do what makes you happy, even though it means going against the stream. Make art the way art is beautiful for you.”

Simone Scardino has created a musical style and vision that truly is his own, sharing it with the world with his new solo project CONCEPTUAL.

Techno is body music. It’s all about this special feeling that you have when your mind disconnects and your body just follows the music, the feeling of freedom when you dance. Simone’s vision of techno unceasingly characterizes his unique productions as well as his DJ sets. Colorful and energetic techno, a powerful explosion of craziness and happiness at the same time. Three-dimensional spatial sounds combined with gentle but determined drum grooves create a mystical and whirling result and a killer stereo experience!

Last year Simone founded the Berlin based art and music collective Friendship Collective. Through his devotion to techno and visual and performance arts the idea for CONCEPTUAL was born. His performances will often be characterized by collaborations with visual artists and performers, creating a special techno experience for the people that come to see him play. 

Simone’s progressive approach to producing and DJing as well as his collaborations with artists in and outside music reflects his artistic vision and goals as much as his spirited personality, and, in its essence, embodies what CONCEPTUAL represents. Plans for the year hold upcoming releases as well preparing playing live, continuously exploring the world of electronic music with his fans.
