Young artist on the rise who knew how to stand out from the musical limits of his country. Jorge Cebrián aka Åre:gone, from Havana, Cuba, is positioned among the first lines of contemporary Techno. With almost 10 years of experience, he has transited through various expressions of the genre, standing out for his characteristic groovy, organic and Cuban touch.

In 2017 he founded with a group of friends the Rusty Nails collective, a space to promote the underground techno culture poorly known at that time in his country. Standing out for his long and liked sessions, which led him to gain the respect of the national public. Helping to build the solid foundations of what today is the Cuban techno scene. In 2022, he co-founded, together with other artists of national renown, what is today the Vórtice. The collective has become the main pillar of the national scene. 
 
His last Ep released on the Mexican label Anaøh, positioned him on the top of the sales charts of the most important digital stores. International artists such as Ben Sims, DVS1, just to mention a few, have played his music in the most important clubs and festivals of the international techno scene such as Berghain, Tresor among others. 
 
He currently resides in Florida, USA. Being faced with future limitations and repression from the Cuban government, Cuban artists with alternative approaches to established ones have been stifled in their creativity. This forced him and a large number of people to escape through Nicaragua to the United States.

DJ AYA
booking: eva@reprisetalentagency.com

Zurich-born, Berlin-based DJ AYA has a keen eye for finessing the vitality, sexiness and punch of any given dancefloor. Their first love, UK bass, captured their imagination over a seven-year stint in London and brought her into electronic music’s binding fold. Bass’ quintessential groove and playfulness have been a lens informing AYA’s gravitational pull towards different genres. From immersive, clean techno kicks to diasporic motifs like grime vocals and reggaeton beats, AYA saw mixing as an opportunity to express the wide-ranging palate they’d long cultivated as a listener. 

In only a handful of years, AYA’s career has quickly blown up to whirlwind status with a far-reaching roster of weekly gigs, including standouts like Khidi in Tbilisi, Boiler Room sets in Lisbon and Berlin, and label Live From Earth’s Panorama Bar showcase. AYA, whose intention is always “to bring the queers to dance”, finds great inspiration in the camaraderie of Berlin’s local scene, along with exploring new underground communities in cities like Istanbul and Tokyo. 

A self-described “hypegirl”, AYA continues to champion their distinctive sound, faithfully meshing their bass-y roots and floor-ready drive. For full AYA immersion, future production is in the works and being perfected. Never slowing down, AYA’s upcoming movements include a thorough Asia tour and further pivots outside continental Europe. Back home, she anticipates a busy spring and summer - most excitedly Europe’s queer weekend of the year, Whole Festival.  

Like the tracks she plays, AYA commands the desk with a joyous presence and sharp intuitiveness. She’s rightfully become an important player in Berlin’s new wave of DJs channelling the city’s limitless energy and sense of possibility.
