Bella Claxton
Melbourne hard-dance and techno DJ. Her sets push hard: fast drums, trancey lift, vocal chants and thick low-end pressure. Every release we can confirm is from 2025 or later, and we found no label. Plays 3 times this week, so you have more than one chance.
For fans of Boys Noize
Budino
Berlin-based selector of psychedelic house and cosmic disco. Budino’s sets move through deep house, cosmic disco, and darker trance-inducing rhythms, with tribal percussion and dense textures sitting on top. Every release we can confirm is from 2026 or later, and we found no label. Plays 2 times this week, so you have more than one chance.
