"Based in Groningen, Deets is an architect of atmospheres. Her sets are experimental and intentional, weaving the sophisticated and sturdy ends of genres such as techno, bass, IDM, and (tech) house into an intertwined experience. It is an approach that prioritizes the "moment" - tuning into the specific energy of a room to foster a genuine sense of shared presence.

​Her musical identity is shaped by a wide lens, drawing on the rhythms of Latin soul, the texture of rock, the bounce of funk, and the grit of hip-hop. This versatility is anchored in a deep creative history - spanning classical piano, graphic design, and dance - as well as a lifelong fascination with the human psyche. Together, these influences inform her intuitive approach to sound.

​This vision converges in her platform, Anoasis, where her Auditory Oasis radio show serves as a sanctuary for musical discovery and solace. By bridging electronic music with a focus on well-being, Deets invites listeners to find grounding through movement and intentional listening, creating spaces where music acts as a catalyst for connection and renewal."

Harnessing a distinct brand of artistry that knows no categorical bounds, the DJ, producer and record label head has cemented herself as one of the music industry’s most in-demand names at nothing short of breakneck speed. Her signature sonic approach masterfully blends genres with a visceral energy that commands attention, the ardent catalyst in her meteoric rise from Belgium’s underground to global phenomenon status.

Daft Punk is an electronic music duo consisting of French musicians Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (born February 8, 1974) and Thomas Bangalter (born January 3, 1975).[1][2][3] Daft Punk reached significant popularity in the late 1990s house movement in France and met with continued success in the years following, combining elements of house with synthpop.[1][2][4] The duo is also credited with producing songs that were considered essential in the French house scene. They were managed from 1996 to 2008 by Pedro Winter (Busy P), the head of Ed Banger Records.[5]
Early in the group's career, the band members were strongly influenced by groups such as The Beach Boys and The Rolling Stones. Bangalter and de Homem-Christo were originally in an indie rock trio called Darlin', which disbanded after a short period of time, leaving the two to experiment musically on their own. The duo became Daft Punk, and released their critically acclaimed debut album Homework in 1997. The 2001 release Discovery was even more successful, driven by the club singles "One More Time", "Digital Love" and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger". In March 2005, the duo released the album Human After All to mixed reviews. However, the singles "Robot Rock" and "Technologic" achieved success in the United Kingdom. Daft Punk toured throughout 2006 and 2007 and released the live album Alive 2007, which won a Grammy award for Best Electronic/Dance Album. The duo composed the score of the film Tron: Legacy and in 2010 released the soundtrack album of the film.
Daft Punk is noted for its elaborate live shows, in which visual elements and effects are incorporated with the music. The group is also known for its emphasis on visual and story components associated with their musical productions, as well as for wearing ornate robot costumes in public and while performing.

Architechno is a collective of architects and designers by day and techno music lovers and djs by night.
Born in the Berlin underground landscape Architechno investigates the possibilities of connecting architectural design with techno music events. 
Spotting inspiring architecture and potential project locations, designing and producing clothes and djing are among their principal works so far.
Being around since 2017, Architechno has been constantly evolving. With the recent launch of their latest project ARCHICAST, the collective wants to reach as many musicians as possibile willing to join the collective for at least a guest dj-set for their Soundcloud channel.
The reclamation and redevelopment of degraded spaces, its reactivation through an architecture project and promotion through a techno music event are Architechno’s visions for the future.

Kopjek is a creative platform for young talent in the north of the Netherlands. The organization mainly focuses on giving unique house and techno parties in a renewed form at surprising locations.
