Lineup

Alarico

Strongly shaped by the raw and forward-leaning sound of 90’s Techno, Milan based artist Alarico Zucchi started his journey into electronic music in 2015 making his way through clubs as a DJ while learning the art of music production. The inauguration of ‘Alarico’ occurred in 2019 after previously exploring several sub-genres of Techno. The alias was formed as a statement to showcase a style that was personal to him. Personal in a way that he became captivated within the patterns and structures of his own sound. Known for fast paced rhythms and kinky grooves he has released music consistently since his debut in 2020 on Joton’s imprint ‘Newrhytmic Records’. Shortly after he launched the vinyl imprint “Katana Records” which showcases the more nose-bleed and mental side of his idea of Techno. Also 2021 so far has been a prolific key year for Alarico. While the world fell seemingly more and more asleep, he continued honing his craft: His debut on Amsterdam based label ‘OOM Records’ was followed by an invitation to a highly acclaimed artists label, which is soon to be disclosed. The same goes for an upcoming remix. Alarico continues to position himself as a unique music lover, continuing to explore the depths and possibilities of sound. He stands for continuously pushing boundaries and stirring this attitude with his background of Hip Hop and Japanese culture.

Fiona Zanetti

Born in Switzerland to Italian parents and based in Paris, Fiona Zanetti is an artist, DJ, writer, and producer who moves fluidly across the electronic spectrum. Her sound draws from the many layers of house music: progressive, trancy, rolly, and ravy; blending bounce, sensuality, and drive into a sonic language that is both physical and emotional. Deeply rooted in club culture, her music creates spaces of intimacy on the dance floor, where physical energy and inner thinking coexist. Since 2021, Fiona has built a strong and distinct presence on the international scene, making audiences dance from Paris to Tokyo and Mexico City. Her longstanding monthly residency on Rinse FM, now approaching its fifth year, has become a key platform for her kinetic signature sound. In 2023, she received a Resident Advisor nod with her Crack Magazine mix being selected for Mix of the Day, marking a moment of industry recognition. Fiona’s vision and practice of music prioritises sharp sound and atmospheric experience. Outside of the booth, her work extends to festival stage curation and hosting, or producing her own parties in cities such as Paris and London. Beyond dance music, Fiona explores a more experimental and ambient dimension of her artistic spectrum. She performed ambient hybrid sets for institutions such as ACK Kyoto in Japan or Mucem in Marseille. She also collaborated on a sonic and physical installation with artist Harry Nuriev in Paris in 2025. Her creative world also draws from a background in fashion and culture, having begun her career as a journalist and talent manager before co-founding Manyforms, a studio and agency in Paris that operates in different layers of the creative industry. This context shapes the extend of her artistic language and multi-disciplinary approach while music remains the core of her practice. In the spring of 2026, Fiona will release her debut EP 'Red Light Therapy' marking a new chapter in her artistic expression. The project draws on her research into club culture as a healing space, shaped by her personal experience navigating health challenges.

Narciss

Pain and pleasure, and the alchemy of converting one to the other through expression is more than a motif in Narciss’ music, it’s the theme. At times it’s a lilting melody strung atop a shuffle of percussive activity, at others a thrumming reverie, heavy laden with low end and much more besides, but this variance of sounds inevitably resonates deep inside. Throughout the entirety of their musical progression, Narciss has been indefatigable in their endeavours, which are motivated by the connection and catharsis that their music cultivates. This desire to share the transformative powers of music has not only imbued their output with an enticing and revelrous timbre, it has fostered collaborations with like-minded souls like Gerd Janson and DJ Boring, among others. “There’s a red thread that I’ve been weaving through my life” says Narciss of their journey. As an artist, a queer person, a partner, and a human alive, the road they’ve walked has changed as it has changed them. The story unfolding thus far, in singles and EP’s as stanzas and chapters, tells of their trials and of their persistence in overcoming them. Styles evolved and sounds found and discarded alike, Narciss carries what they need and leaves to the past what’s in the past. The constant throughout their life and career, which is at the heart of their creative expression, is both a personal mantra and manifestation of their oeuvre - Per Aspera Ad Astra, “through hardships to the stars.”

Sitze

Steve Rachmad

Mentioning releases, remixes, or labels on which Steve Rachmad has shown his craftsmanship is pointless and time-consuming. So is boasting about the clubs and festivals on which he has left his mark. It would just make for another list of names, places, and brands…. Let’s not do that. Feel free to visit the usual channels (Discogs, Soundcloud, Beatport) and take your pick from numerous productions and DJ sets. They all come from three decades of dedication, sweat, and polishing a one of a kind talent. Because as Miles had his horn and Pablo took to canvas, Steve has an unequalled gift for (almost physically) connecting with every thinkable drum machine and synthesizer out there. If the man had kids, boys would listen to Roland or Robert (Moog), and a girl would surely be named Linn, after the machine made famous by Prince and others in the 80’s. Some claim it’s analogue machine telepathy, others say he was born with all the right connectors and inputs hidden somewhere underneath his trademark curly hairdo. This ability has established Steve as one of those artists that simply last because of quality. New generations of artists from different genres recognizes his signature and therefore play his work. As a DJ he is constantly reinventing himself. Set firmly in the best that techno and house have to offer at the moment, Rachmad draws inspiration from his love for high quality disco and electro from the past. As words can never truly describe music, we’ll end with advising you to go check him out and hear for yourself what Steve is all about 🦂

Sven Weisemann

b o o k i n g: contact@lmnt-agency.com Despite his young age, Weisemann has been DJing since 1996. His musical influences ranges from Classic, Soundtracks, Soul and Jazz, Deep House and Dub to his beloved Detroit Techno and US House. As a producer, his music draws deeply on the legacy of Chicago and Detroit, yet somehow manages to end up sounding as fresh as a daisy - records such as 'Vibe' and 'Slices' are house music that is half atmosphere and half beats, and not afraid to take its sweet time to lull the floor with their charms. A self-taught musician who plays piano, acoustic guitar and percussion, Weisemann also composes jazz and soundtracks - traditions which also inform his house records no doubt, many of which you can find on Meanwhile, House Café Music, Apple Pips, Kann, a.r.t.less, Wandering, Liebe*Detail, Real Soon, Styrax Leaves, Essays, Freund Der Familie, Fauxpas Musik, Echocord, Delsin, Telrae, Just Another Beat and especially Mojuba, where Weisemann's music slots together with friends Nick Solé and Oracy to form a distinct, and highly collectible, label sound. Several pseudonyms are in circulation.
