Description
Detroit mastermind DJ Stingray 313 is, without question, one of the greats. A global ambassador for electro and true school techno, Stingray stands as one of the great DJs currently operating. He’s also a producer of singular talents - simply put, a Stingray track doesn’t sound quite like anything else. The link to his former collaborators in Drexciya is apparent from the first moment of any of his tracks, but Stingray is no retro formalist. Instead, he embraces the elusive, the daring, the uncanny and strange in a way that sets him apart. Following his special b2b with Juliana Huxtable at WIRE, he’s back in BASEMENT to lay it down once more. Bassiani resident Kancheli is back to the club for a solo set. One of the most significant DJs in his hometown’s thriving subculture, Kancheli is a master of simmering power that rides a thin line, always threatening to boil over. He’s one of those DJs that captures the audience before they even know it. Mos represents the next generation. The Infra affiliate is a devotee of steely, pounding techno that quivers on the edge of claustrophobia and ecstatic release.
Alinka makes her debut in STUDIO. The Kyiv-born, Chicago-raised artist is a true head who has devoted her life to the promise of raw, jacking house. Her multi-decade story has seen her in direct collaboration with many of the key names in US house music, and her partnership with Shaun J. Wright on the Twirl party series is the stuff of legend. Alinka is one of those DJs that other artists look to. Her impeccable craft, limitless knowledge and unerring passion are an inspiration. Analog Soul is in a similar lane. Longtime NY favorites, the duo has been an active part of the city’s nightlife since the turn of the millennium. The depth of their history is matched only by the undeniable, evergreen freshness of their sound. Analog Soul is one of STUDIO’s most consistent bookings for one simple reason: every time they play, they blow us away. S4M23 matches the mood with some sturdy, punchy midwest house. A NY-based artist with roots in Chicago, S4M23 traces a line through timeless classics and deep rarities.
