Liminal Instinct opens the night with a deeply atmospheric and immersive set from 23:00 to 01:00. Her sound unfolds slowly, blending airy ambient textures with hypnotic low-end pulses and minimalistic rhythms. Built around the subtle intricacies of modular synthesis, the set draws you inward with evolving soundscapes and precise layering. It’s a delicate yet focused exploration — setting the perfect tone for the journey ahead.

Yuddy Ash joins as the seventy-first guest of the Set the Mood series. A producer and DJ based in Kyoto, Japan, his sound crafts a percussive, ritualistic take on techno, blending mysterious rhythms with subtle tension to evoke deep emotion. Driven by a profound connection to sound, his sets unfold as immersive journeys, where resonant frequencies align with the body’s pulse.

For Yuddy Ash, a perfect opening set is about creating space. That space serves as a doorway from the everyday to the extraordinary.

When shaping this mix, he envisioned a modest underground club, not too large, on a Friday night slowly turning into Saturday. It is a one-hour slot that begins exactly at midnight.

To him, techno is an aesthetic of repetition. He aims to create an inviting sense of openness, drawing people in with groove without overwhelming them too soon.

In his view, the DJ’s presence ideally remains anonymous, as the true protagonist is the music itself and the space it creates. Across the full sixty minutes, the set unfolds like a single track, guiding listeners into this shared space. It hints at the night’s direction, builds tension gradually, shapes the atmosphere, and always leaves room for curiosity.

Live recording of my set [opening] at Soundgasm, hosted by TheReallionaire and SALōN at Zhuzh Bar in SF. Unfortunately it jumps and then skips a song (Olivia Dean 😭) at 1:18:08 due to copyright.

Sorry if the sound quality isn’t the best.  Also kinda butchered the first transition lol. Was getting used to their system.

With a deep appreciation for the art of DJing, branqueeno intentionally selects and blends music together to tell a story and take the listeners on a journey.  

Inspired by house music's Chicago and New York City sounds and culture, branqueeno’s musical style and selection brings a modern twist with an old school flare. She plays a range of house and electronic music, spanning classic, jackin’, deep, garage, acid, disco, tech, minimal, afro, latin, indie dance, progressive-tech, and breaks. A groove is guaranteed with a lot of vocals.

To honor house music’s cultural beginnings, she actively contributes to the community by helping to create safe, inclusive spaces that unite people together. She works with several collectives that follow this ethos and has actively produced events since 2023. These events focus on elevating others, primarily women, by creating opportunities for performance, mentorship, skill development, and networking. Notably, she is the New York City lead with the collective, Sisters in Sound, who was one of the 2025 Beatport Diversity Fund grant winners.

Committed to her musical development, she and consistently seeks opportunities to refine her technical abilities on the decks and as a producer. Her first official release was in July 2025. Her production style aligns with her taste as a selector, full of groovy basslines and percussion to evoke emotion, connection, and escape to listeners on the dance floor and beyond.
