Programme
Jeff Revolución
Jeff Revolución is a Rotterdam based DJ that has been passionate about music for as long as he can remember. His Peruvian roots have been a solid foundation and an infinite source of inspiration. Add to that over a decade of clubbing, soaking everything up like a sponge along the way. He does not like to think in genres, nor stick to one, and his selections reflect that free spirit as he combines a wide range of music he is into.
Paisa Salserisimo
Bringing the best of salsa, tropical music, and old-school hip hop, DJ Paisa is known for working with LPs and CDs, staying true to the classic old-school style. With a long history in radio, DJ Paisa hosted the show La Calentura around 1997 on Radio Rapar at Odeon. Throughout the years, DJ Paisa has had the privilege of collaborating with famous orchestras such as Grupo Galé, Oscar D'León, Jerry Rivera, and many more. More recently, there has been collaboration with Los Melos.
Sunflowers radio
On Sunflowers Radio, hosts Pema (pemzzi) and Catherine (Cat A Lula) celebrate and showcase FLINTA (Female, Lesbian, Intersex, Non-binary, Transgender, Agender) artists in the electronic music and radio scene.
Alberta Balsam
Alberta Balsam's love for science-fiction permeates throughout everything she does. Her live performances flex immeasurable skill as a tech-savvy producer able to construct danceable, yet simultaneously lush and expansive interludes. Classic drum machines are layered over intricate harmonies and 303 bass lines, programmed through drum machines and analogue synthesizers. The results are rooted in early experiments with machine-made music but also a journey across time and space, tuning into the frequencies of cybernetic entities arriving from the future.

Mathilde Nobel
While pursuing her studies in Fine Arts at Breda, Mathilde embarked on a journey to teach herself the art of electronic music production and songwriting. Following her graduation in 2020, she independently released her debut mini-album, "May+Be." Her foundation in Fine Arts significantly influenced her exploration of the intersection between the visual and non-visual realms, which manifests in various forms, including painting, filmmaking, and 3D animation.
20 Uñas
20 Uñas is a Peruvian DJ that combines all kinds of sounds, from psychedelic cumbia to lo-fi, future beats & reggaeton/Neo Perreo. She couldn't put her style, a mix of so many worlds, into simple words. As an artist, she likes to trespass limits. What matters is that while she plays, she's discovering herself.
