ona:v is a Polish-born DJ, producer and promoter with an ear for textural techno and dark electro. A scientist by day and a DJ by night, the Edinburgh-based artist is an integral figure in her locale, both as a DJ and through event curation.
Having built an extensive track collection for several years, ona:v debuted on Edinburgh’s club circuit in 2019, with bookings across the UK making up her diary since. On home turf, ona:v plays regular gigs in Scotland’s biggest venues, having supported Ben Klock, SLAM, Fjaak, Anne, Isabel Soto, Clouds, EKATA and many others. Outside of Scotland, she closed
for Clouds and Randomer at The Cause, played at London’s Risen and Necropolis Festivals and in Berlin’s Mensch-Meier and About Blank. 2022 saw her Polish debut, and in 2021/22 she streamed from Berlin’s HÖR Radio. More recently, for two years in a row, she headlined the basement stage curated by Sisu at Hidden Door — a prolific visual art and music festival in Edinburgh, and performed multiple times at Scotland’s biggest festival – Terminal V.

In 2020, ona:v founded EPiKA, and started promoting EPiKA’s bi-monthly party called CiRCLE in Edinburgh. Here, she creates a nurturing environment for beginner female and non-binary DJs playing more underground flavours of electronics, with focus on techno. She also garners a radio residency on London’s Threads Radio and is an internal member and a resident DJ with the Sisu crew. Production-wise, she has released techno and electro tracks
on multiple compilations and released her debut EP, Response to the Techno Crisis, on Diffuse Reality in 2022.

THE VELA PULSAR
𝗘𝗟𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗥𝗢 𝗠𝗜𝗫 𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗦 

Uncompromising Electro – No Names, No Trends, Just Frequency.
Born from the outer rim of the UK underground, The Vela Pulsar is a transmission hub for pure, forward-thinking Electro and its dark orbiting worlds.

We don’t chase names or algorithms. 
The Vela Pulsar exists for those who understand that this music isn’t nostalgia or fashion, it’s circuitry, emotion, resistance, and evolution. Each release is a coded message from the fringes, shaped by artists who prioritise sound over status, vision over visibility.
Our mission is clear: to amplify the uncompromising, to expand the sonic frontier, and to remind the world that Electro comes first.
