Strongly inspired by the dirty and energetic sound of the 90s, Brazilian-based artist Nicolas Vogler began his music career by DJing at underground events in his home country, developing over the years an extensive collection of tracks that reflect his keen research and unique musical identity.
​
Through his typical funky, fast, and instrospective sound, Nicolas started releasing his tracks through his own personal label NCLS which quickly gained notoriety and attracted support from renowned DJs worldwide.

Today, Nicolas has a discography that revolves around just over 150 tracks, 30 albums, and 50 mixtapes signed on notorious labels and collectives of the global techno scene, such as Mutual Rytm, Planet Rhythm, Suara, Syxt Berlin, Malör Records, Orphic Amsterdam, Frenzy and Reclaim Your City.

MindTrip music, Founded by Pfirter 2006. 
Reinvented and relaunched in 2012 under the new name MindTrip.

MindTrip Music was the creation of Buenos Aires born Juan Pablo Pfirter in 2006. The digital-only label acted as a springboard for upcoming Argentinian artists and of course, Pfirter himself, introducing those talents to the rest of the world. Over the years, the fledgling label allowed Juan Pablo the ability to experiment and play with music, sounds and textures and develop his own sense of direction and focus. Collaborating and drawing influence and experience from fellow MindTrip Music artists like Jonas Kopp, Flug, Markus Suckut, Psyk and Monoloc, both the label and Pfirter grew in symbiotic proportion. But after 6 years and 48 releases, Pfirter felt the need for change.

Having released on CLR, Stockholm LTD, Stroboscopic Artefacts & Figure, Pfirter’s brand of hypnotic music has touched dancers and listeners the world over. Not only limited to the clubs, Pfirter’s productions have delved deep into the experimental side too. This is the focus and framework of the new label. 
Juan Pablo reinvented and relaunched the MindTrip imprint, showcasing the full degree of his sound. The label changed its name from MindTrip Music to
just MindTrip, releasing vinyl as well as digital utilising a bespoke artwork profile.
This is MindTrip music!

Safer space collective in Paris nightlife.
Event 21+ for queers and night's creatures. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Founded in 2017 by David Le Naour and Léa Occhi, Spectrum Waves was born from a deep desire: to create a new space for expression, gathering, and experimentation within the LGBTQIA+ community. Rooted in electronic music culture, the collective offers a sanctuary of inclusivity, free expression, aiming to host events where everyone feels safe and welcome.

These events, crafted in an immersive, dreamlike atmosphere, are a true celebration of queer culture. A space where everyone can be their most authentic self. It’s not just about the music; it’s an invitation to dance, express, and honor the diversity of identities and experiences.

Since its creation, Spectrum Waves has established its home at La Station – Gare des Mines. All events push boundaries, blending art, lighting, live performances, and energetic sets. With a lineup spotlighting both emerging and recognized artists, we cultivate a range of electronic sound that is subtle, rhythmic, and mentally engaging.

Equality and diversity are at the heart of our approach. We emphasize gender parity and shine a spotlight on women in the electronic music scene. Moreover, the collective supports essential causes such as LGBTQIA+ rights, migrant assistance, and environmental preservation by donating part of each event's proceeds to various organizations.

Spectrum Waves is a movement to be together and defend our community! A safe place of freedom and expression. Get into the groove, and dance!
