FASHION is an Asian American transsexual diva, designer, artist, and DJ based in NYC and sometimes Berlin. She would describe her musical style as an eclectic digital fusion: often combining the yin of trance (feminine, passive, chaos) and the yang of techno (masculine, active, order). Fashion is influenced heavily by her international identity, digital millennial upbringing, and the burgeoning cultural hub of New York which you can hear in her undefinable yet global sound.
VILE is a Colombian DJ and producer living in NYC. Hailing from the city of Eternal Spring (Medellin), Vile has an insatiable passion for innovation, crafting a sonic experience that captivates and challenges in equal measure. Drawing inspiration from subterranean worlds, Vile blends genres with a joyful command of rhythmic grooves, industrial sounds, and dark melodies. Always pushing boundaries, Vile weaves sonic tapestries between dimensions.
