Description
Both dj’s of the night describe themselves as dj’s who are led by emotion. Soon after moving to Berlin in 2015, Stella came upon a passion for collecting records – starting with hip-hop, funk, soul, jazz and boogie. At a certain point, she began to receive some invitations to play her collection out at bars, which was around the same time she began going out to dance in the city’s clubs – her wider investigation of electronic dance music soon followed. So one could say Stella’s DJ practice began with collecting, then gained dimension as a selector and dancer, and this is audible in her sound – she plays sets that stoke a warmth in the body and keep it lit, sequences of deep-dug cuts that are mixed with a tactile intuition and trust in the track that only a vinyl DJ could have. Eliza is driven to bring healing back to the dance floor. She has always been drawn to music that conveys and embodies unapologetic resistance. She combines the soft and sensual with a raw groove, aiming to take you through the full spectrum of human emotion. With house in all its varieties at the core, her sound is also heavily influenced by the UK, taking you from UK Streetsoul, 80’s RnB and Reggae to Trip-Hop and Breakbeat.
