Mix 002 | observance @ Sunshine Bay Studios

Mix 003 | technomass

Douched & Dangerous is a genre-defiant, high-femme, no-fucks-given mix that celebrates trans greatness, joy, and the playfulness of American club culture.

Opening with the voice of trans icon AJA, “Douched & Dangerous”, is an ode to trans women who have significantly shaped nightlife. From Bashkka to Arca to Ms. Boogie, these women drive the flow of the mix producing a bouncy, sexy, and an "I'm that bitch" type of energy. DIVAS TO THE DANCE FLOOR!!!

This mix doesn't sit neatly inside genre lines. It builds, crashes, and swerves through bass, booty house, experimental techno, and ghetto club. Inspired by how Berlin always reminds me of my love for Black American culture — the humor, the irreverence, the inventiveness — this set is a love letter to this community as well.

Ultimately, this is for the gworls, the dolls, the they/thems, and anyone who doesn't do keta on the dance floor lol.

Douched and Dangerous

Groove Damage moves through a dynamic range of underground electronic sounds, blending hypnotic techno, broken rhythms, and peak-time intensity. It opens with atmospheric and experimental textures before evolving into heavier, percussive club tracks which bring in Latin-infused grooves and energy.

Midway, the set introduces raw industrial edges and vocal-driven cuts that push the energy higher while keeping a gritty yet subdued emotional tension. From there, the set evolves with driving techno selections maintaining momentum before concluding with a selection of nostalgic and raw tracks.
