About this event
10 DJs with a shared mission: to support the queer community in Ukraine—not only in the face of ongoing aggression from the neighboring country, but also in light of the new Civil Code #15150, which explicitly defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman. The draft contains no provisions to protect same-sex couples and prevents the legal recognition of such partnerships.
the bRAVEs Berlin is hosting a fundraising event featuring 10 DJs at the Bredoille. To highlight the vibrant queer community, the music will be just as diverse, ranging from soft house rhythms to bouncy, groovy beats and hypnotic techno sounds. The event starts right after work at 6 p.m. and goes late into the night. Come early, dance a lot and stay late!
In addition we will celebrate VDM's 40th anniversary, so be prepared to get some warmest hugs!
All donations will go to Ukraine Pride @ukraine.pride .

justcallmesergio
Ukrainian-born, Berlin based, Serhiy began his journey in music production in 2020. Since then, his career has only gained momentum, as he has also made a name for himself as a DJ — skillfully shaping the energy of the crowd and taking them on a journey infused with catchy synths and percussions. Over the past few years, he has performed at Vechornytsi fundraiser events, held a residency with the casadephunk crew, and contributed mixes to Tempelhof and Gasoline radio stations.
Rina Katen
Her journey began in Kyiv, where she honed her skills at Closer Connections—a DJ and music production school thatalso serves as a thriving artistic hub. Since relocating to Berlin, Rina has been captivating audiences with her rhythmically diverse and emotionally charged sets, blending groovy house beats, nostalgic ’90s classics, and intricate broken rhythms into a smooth, sophisticated sound. She has already made her mark at some of Berlin’s most iconic venues, including Sisyphos, Kater, Renate, Zur Klappe and ACUD, as well as delivering a standout performance on HÖR. With a refined musical approach and a deep connection to the dance-floor, Rina Katen continues to carve out her space in the electronic music scene, drawing listeners into her world with every set. She believes in the power of music to tell stories, letting her sets speak for themselves rather than relying on words.
Kobzev
In his sets he likes to blend at most times more than 2 tracks in order to create variations of the music he plays, that fits the most to the mood and energy of the floor at each given time. Often he likes to add individual loops from his productions or even sometimes hardware units from the studio, for example drum machines.
LADY $UKA
Originally from Ukraine, he was one of the pioneers of Ukrainian queer party culture; he’s always been into music, exploring new genres and always searching for something fresh. In Berlin he developed his music style so now his sets are always a vibe. You can expect high energy bouncy tunes, ghetto style, breakbeat and electro infused with vocals. Always sexy and xtra cunty💅🏼

Zoanthropiia
zoanthropiia's musical journey is as diverse as it is captivating. She began with a dynamic world of funky and afro house, which helped shape her bold style. However, her endless curiosity for music led her to explore more. Melodic strains, the intense energy of rave, and the mysterious vibes of trance have all left a mark on her evolving sound. Her music combines driving baselines that command your feet to dance, punchy beats that resonate with your heartbeat, and spacey melodies that take you on a cosmic journey.
