Viêt and Jeremy Raider-Hoàng are the founders, editors and creative directors of No One, a new magazine that explores the queer nightlife of a different city each issue. It feels natural to marry the subjects of nightlife and queer culture, and you can tell there are big, serious ideas behind their impulse to document the hedonistic fun they see around them.

No One magazine explores queer nightlife

ABOUT THE ARTIST

rbf.linh is an artist, live performer, and DJ whose work draws from her experiences as a queer Vietnamese-Chinese individual growing up in the West. As half of Animistic Beliefs, she explores heritage, displacement, and sexuality through collaborative projects that blend rhythm, vocals, and visual storytelling. Under her solo project rbf.linh, she creates raw, dance-floor-ready sounds with haunting vocals, using rhythm and noise to process everything that consumes her. Her music flows through fast-paced, danceable drums and broken beats, crafted and performed with a neuroqueer perspective.


ABOUT THE SOUND

“Đi Đi, Đừng Trốn (Go Ahead, Don’t Hide)” begins with a sense of calm, using glass samples and a tranquil atmosphere to set the stage. As it progresses, the rhythm shifts and accelerates, reflecting the energy of movement and the drive to go further. Through its evolving pace, the song captures the thrill of momentum, embracing chaos and fast-paced sounds as a source of inspiration. It’s a journey that flows from stillness into motion, always pushing forward.


ABOUT THE COMPILATION

No One Magazine is a print publication about underground queer nightlife around the world. Each issue takes readers to a different city’s queer scene, featuring communities and collectives who promote connection and identity building through electronic music.

To accompany ISSUE 02: No One in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, we invited seven Vietnamese queer artists—from these two cities, alongside their diasporic counterparts from Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and New York City—to tap into that spirit and interpret the Vietnamese phrase “Đi Đi Đi” through their own sonic language.

“Đi Đi Đi” is a staple of everyday Vietnamese speech, translating to “Go Go Go.” More than just a command, this phrase is a spark, a playful yet urgent push to move faster, go harder, and get it done. It encapsulates not only the pace of Vietnamese life, which inspires much of its underground sound, but also the scene’s collective drive for freedom.

100% of revenue from this record's sales and streaming go directly to A Queer Museum, Vietnam’s first collective queer-feminist archiving space, supporting their work to document LGBTQIA+ history, host community-led events, and strengthen grassroots initiatives by sharing resources such as venue space, communications, and community support.

Đi Đi, Đừng Trốn (Go Ahead, Don't Hide)

No One is a print magazine that celebrates underground queer nightlife around the world. 

Each year, we focus on a different city’s LGBTQIA+ scene, sharing locally written stories of individuals and collectives who are organizing spaces and movements for their communities to build identity and connection through electronic music.

By focusing on print, No One intends to take up physical space, demand attention, and facilitate deep engagement with each page, seeking to be an antidote to the fleeting nature of digital media and the ephemerality of nightlife.

To complement the magazine, No One also hosts events and creates projects like zines, films, and other creative experiments—often tied to the cities featured—to further explore distant scenes beyond the print.

Whether a queer kid in the suburbs, an elder (re)finding their community, or an ally who appreciates and wants to learn more about queerness, No One exposes the beauty in each individual and inspires the courage to discover more of oneself and those around them.

We hope to bring the global LGBTQIA+ community closer, sharing challenges, celebrating victories, and ultimately opening up this whole world to us: the dancing queers.
