Her style transcends the confines of time or genre by recontextualizing dance music from previous eras among contemporary sounds and her own productions and edits. In the past few years, she became a regular across all floors of Berlin’s famous Berghain nightclub and played at major festivals like Coachella and Pitchfork. JAMES AXON James Axon is the cofounder & resident of the queer underground party Planet Love, and a resident of Dublab with his radio show “Hearing Color” — both platforms he dedicates to underground dance music. With over a decade of collecting dance records since, Axon now draws upon his musicality and eclectic taste as a DJ that espouses an expansive vision of dance music, often mixing seamlessly between all shades of house, techno, italo, electro, disco, and breaks. His sets are always colorful, eclectic, and intuitively reflective of the setting. Axon’s DJing has taken him to clubs both around the country and internationally, with recent appearances at Sunday Sunday CDMX, Good Room NYC, and Por Detroit LA.”
