Tao Andra is a Romanian artist based in Lisbon. She synthesizes her hyperactive but sensitive personality into her music, blending different genres into her high energy performances. 

Her musical journey began in The Netherlands during her university years. Right away she became completely immersed in the Dutch Techno scene.

She describes the experience as “It feels like you finally find where you belong.”

She started to collect music on vinyl while teaching herself how to DJ. That is a common trait in her life, a lot of her skills are self-taught.

Techno speaks to her hyperactive personality, but sensitive nature. And that is how she builds her sets. The musical journeys she creates are always a mix between high energy, groove and emotional moments.

Her release “Gracias a la Vida” got global attention after Indira Paganotto played her track at MainStage Tomorrowland. In the aftermath, Andra has been featured in the Rolling Stone, CNN, and La Nácion. 

This year,  Charlotte de Witte has also been supporting her music, playing  her track "Brain Train" during the  closing of the MainStage at Tomorrowland. 

Tao Andra has brought her timeless sound to many corners of the world. From Brazil to Australia, Germany to India, Argentina to Japan.

Volta | Hypnostate | Mahool

“Techno for me, is all about the energy on the dance floor and how listeners vibe to it. As long as my listeners are grooving to the beat, that's all I care about.”

Deus Deserto is an up and coming producer/dj whose love for old school grooves and melancholic yet energetic beats can be felt through his electric creations. Focusing on bringing a positive, up-beat atmosphere to life, Deus Deserto infuses the inspiration of household names like Eric Prydz, Faithless, Adam Beyer, Daft Punk, and Dubfire into his tracks. 

Both thoughtful and creative in his craft, Deus Deserto’s music is all about the energy it creates for listeners with the goal in mind to always have them moving their body to the music. A staple of this infectious energy comes from his blending of old school beats that seamlessly blend in with modern day techno music.

Wondering the origins of Deus Deserto? It’s simple: “God from the Desert”. The name is a personal ode to his own origin in his birth country of Qatar. 

But the best way to get to know Deus Deserto is through the experience of his music. Don’t miss his tracks now streaming on all major platforms with plenty more to look forward to.
