luz (they / them) is a neuroqueer DJ, curator, community organizer and nightlife disruptor. Co-founder of Berlin-based queer collective Room 4 Resistance, they’re also a member of Ecology of Care and Unsound’s Mutual Respect team. 

Their practice of nightlife is deeply anchored in queer feminist spaces, grassroots organizing, community care and harm reduction. As a DJ, their ever-evolving sound is at the crossroads of different styles and influences: bass, breaks, experimental, leftfield, D’n’B, deep techno, electro, IDM and more. They enjoy building narratives across genres and eras that resonate with their present moods and feelings. Their favorite dancefloors are intimate, sweaty, healing, filled with queer joy, cute weirdos and misfits from all paths of life.

Over the years, luz has performed at countless international venues and festivals, highlights include Panorama Bar and Tresor (Berlin), De School (Amsterdam), Et Andet Sted (Copenhagen), Hot Mass (Pittsburgh), Movement’s Industry Brunch (Detroit), La Station Gare Des mines (Paris), and more recently 5 Miles (London) as well as festivals such as Nyege Nyege (Uganda), Unsound (Poland) and Horst (Belgium).
