Elijah made his name DJing in the Grime scene but his sets today take a wider view of the last 30 years of Black British music history joining the threads between Grime, Dubstep, Funky, Bassline, Garage, Jungle, Jazz and Rap.
From his 1994 breakthrough Original Nuttah to era-defining hits, Shy FX has been at the heart of British club culture for three decades – tearing up dancefloors with a sound that fuses jungle, drum & bass, reggae, dancehall, and beyond. His DJ sets are pure high-energy chaos in the best way possible, moving effortlessly from carnival vibes to underground pressure.
Tasha’s DJing style weaves tunes together seamlessly from her bass informed home of the UK alongside four four techno forms born in Berlin and Detroit. With an accomplished and atmospheric hold on the dancefloor expect upfront cuts mixed in with some old gems and other styles in between like D&B / Jungle. In an industry where artists are asked to prioritize their art for social media presence, likes and other vacuous pursuits, Tasha is very much in demand for her ‘music first’ attitude, selection and ability.
Growing up ever surrounded by music in his parents’ household and learning to play the piano from the age of 6 music was a constant in Hennings life, throughout his teenage years his exposure to different urban subcultures has deepened his interest in various genres and musical exploration. An impactful few months living in the UK ultimately lead to picking up DJing at the age of 19. Since 2025 he hosts and plays the radio shows “objet personnel” at Callshop Radio and “S1H” at Pilot Radio.
He strives to pursuit an authentic approach towards music, straying away from trends and more towards genuine expression, aiming to create lasting experiences on the dancefloor. In his sets, although rooted in bass music and dubstep, he navigates multiple genres and guides the audience through changing patterns, rhythms, energies and emotions.
Wuppertal-based artist and head of the Ballett label – crafts immersive, deep-textured soundscapes that blur the lines between dub-infused techno and ambient minimalism. His sets are shaped by warm, grainy rhythms, atmospheric grooves, and an earthy sonic palette that feels both grounded and expansive.
Rooted in classic dub aesthetics yet forward-thinking in execution, Mauzius merges analog warmth with precise electronic detail. The result is a sound that is organically fluid yet tightly structured — creating intimate moments between sound and movement.
Whether in the studio or behind the decks, Mauzius curates a dynamic and deeply engaging journey, marked by subtle shifts, hypnotic patterns, and a tactile sense of depth.
ELSA (CLOCKED) – Coming from Karlsruhe’s subculture and supported by the Mannheim-based Clocked collective, ELSA has been part of the electronic music scene for almost 15 years. She is a core member of C2 Ost Club, which opened in February 2025, where she takes care of booking and curation.
Her journey into electronic music started with a curiosity for new sounds and the fascination with how space, rhythm, and energy come together in the club.
Her style combines driving basslines with hypnotic, detailed soundscapes. While her sets often explore experimental directions, they always stay connected to the vibe of the room and the moment.
Freifeld: A celebration of sound system culture — where grime, garage, jungle and drum & bass collide in a night of heavy bass, shared energy and deep-rooted Black British club heritage.
