Artist Bio:
Born in Kiev, Ukraine, her early childhood included reluctantly learning the piano, her mother is a pianist, while trying to convince her parents to let her play guitar. Her exposure to Western music was limited, living in a communist country where censorship was common practice. Her family eventually immigrated to Chicago as Jewish refugees in the late 80s as the USSR crumbled. This was her first experience of pop music and she fell head over heals for the chart sounds of Madonna and Janet Jackson. Then came house music from local radio shows where you could frequently hear tracks by Chicago legends like Cajmere and DJ Funk, and shows like Sonic Boom helped expose underground music to the masses. By the late 90s, music had taken over her life. Teenage Alinka immersed herself in the dance music scene spending her summer pulling double shifts at a local pool and moonlighting for rave promoters to build up enough cash to buy decks. After a year of skipping class to relentlessly practice her mixing skills, she began her full time musical pursuit. Working for various club promoters, doing odd jobs passing out flyers and helping with party logistics - anything just to get into clubs underage to see her favourite DJs - all while spending hours digging for tracks at Chicago’s legendary record shop Gramaphone. In 2001 Justin Long recruited her to be the opening resident for his .Dotbleep party at Smartbar where she honed her skills for the best part of a decade. In 2012, an impromptu meeting with former Hercules and Love Affair vocalist, Shaun J. Wright, changed her life forever. Their evolving friendship resulted in what would be the first of many musical collaborations. The pair launched their Twirl parties and label, continually strived to inspire each other both musically and spiritually, the result has been an impressive catalogue of material for both of them collaboratively and individually on the likes of The Classic Music Company, Jackathon Jams, Crosstown Rebels, Leftroom, and of course Twirl, where as well as their own material the duo have welcomed renowned artists like Spencer Parker, Virginia, LA-4A, Kim Ann Foxman, and Jason Kendig onto the label. The past two years Alinka really hit her stride as a producer with successful releases on world renown labels like Rekids, Crosstown Rebels, Need Want, Permanent Vacation, Harry Romero’s Bambossa Records, and her newly launched second imprint Fantasy Life. She also turned out a standout collection of remixes for labels Me Me Me, Pomme Fritte, Lone Romantic, Keinemusik, and Get Physical. Now living in Berlin, Alinka has well and truly found her feet and her inspiration. Alinka has used this base to throw down at parties across Europe from Panorama Bar to Circoloco, with regular visits back to the US to play for standout parties for promoters like Ladyfag and she regularly returned to the Ukraine where a new generation at ∄ are bringing electronic music to Kyiv. Her evolution continues with 2022 promising a packed schedule of releases, new dancefloors to enchant and new material on Twirl and Fantasy Life landing soon.

With an intuitive flair for the perfect mix of pumping, melodic and trippy sounds, Lars is using music to emotionally move and enthral his audience. Growing up with the synth aesthetics of the 80s and the energetic, atmospheric trance sounds of the 90s, these sonic landscapes still inspire him and are reflected in his sets to this day. With his unique style, he creates a distinct and unparalleled atmosphere right from the start of his performances. His work as a DJ, producer, event organizer and label founder has made him a sought-after name not only in his hometown of Leipzig but also beyond.
