Progresivna Suza was founded in 2018 as a spontaneous initiative by passionate fans of the progressive house genre from Serbia and Croatia. This organization aims to unite individuals from all over the world who share the same passion, live progressively as part of their daily life, recognize no borders, and want to express their feelings through music uniquely and intimately.

From 2018 to 2020

During the group’s two and a half years of existence, as the number of new members grew, Progressive Suza organized over 20 parties in clubs in Belgrade and Novi Sad under the name Progressive Tales. Local support was provided by progressive house artists such as Bokee, Aćim, Jelly For The Babies, Popi Divine, and Miloš Miladinović, while well-known hosts like Lukai, Igor D., Aleksandar Marković, Hobin Rude, Despić, and Migazz also contributed.

The indispensable podcast began its first season with a weekly show in collaboration with the DeGori Project in 2018. In the second season, the podcast adopted a new, independent name, Progressive Tales. Alongside main episodes, the podcast included bonus editions that offered an open opportunity and support for emerging young DJs from around the world. Over the first three seasons, more than 150 artists participated in the Progressive Tales podcast. Among the artists who collaborated with us are Cid Inc, Dmitry Molosh, Alex O’Rion, Kamilo Sanclemente, Anthony Pappa, Mauro Augugliaro, Kyoto, Lerr, Buba, DJ Ruby, Simos Tagias, Gux Jimenez, Eran Aviner, Ewan Rill, RIGOONI, Stereo Underground, Guy Milani, Forerunners, Lucas Rossi, Jelly For The Babies, and many more.

The book launch took place at Barutana club in Belgrade on June 1st before performances by Hernan Cattaneo and Hobin Rude.

The Progressive Tales podcast entered its seventh broadcasting season alongside the Elevation series.

Welcome. I don't see myself as an artist. More like an art collector. The Sets and Mixes I create are only an expression of my musical taste and the transitions are the arrangement and decoration of that exhibition. The bands and musicians in my mixes are the real artists. As a gallery owner I try to connect the artists with the audience to foreground their art and work. That's what my sets are for.

Be prepared for sets with a variety of melodic styles like Organic House, Progressive House, Deep House, Tech House, Melodic Techno, Techno, Trance and more! And all of that over a whooping time span of over 18 years of DJing :)

Willkommen. Ich bin kein Künstler. Ich bin Kunstsammler. Die Sets, die ich kreiere sind lediglich Ausdruck meines Geschmacks und meine Übergänge die Ausstellung. Die Bands & Musiker in meinen Sets sind die wahren Künstler. Als Galerist stelle ich den Kontakt zwischen Künstler und Publikum her, denn die Kunst soll in den Vordergrund rücken. Dafür sind meine Sets.

Arilu discovered her passion for music since she was a child. The melodies of Nature and electronic frequencies inspired her in the early stage of her musical formation. 
Once in Berlin, she started to be a dj. In her mixtapes she finds harmony across tracks and blend them in timeless music journeys throughout cultures, instruments and melodies, all permeated by deep spiritual meanings. 
She also started producing in Berlin, her own produced music represents a delicate rhythm, research, tenderness of sounds and a super fine taste. 
She chooses to express himself through music in a unique, very deep and marvelous way. A soul that tender, that when you listen to its stories there is an explosion of feelings. Time and space are no longer relevant, everything is translated into a musical stage full of love, peace, light, and harmony, impossible to describe in words.
Embracing a wide range of music, Arilu indulge us with some very natural and sensitive sounds, presenting her healing frequencies, also due to her soul-singing, giving a wonderful experience to any soul.
