About

JAKOJAKO [DE] https://soundcloud.com/ciel_dj BASHKKA [DE] |https://soundcloud.com/bashkka Bashkka Reflecting the Turkish word for ‘different,’ BASHKKA’s name highlights her one-of-a-kind presence. Her sets, known for their daring and incisive flair, captivate audiences, while her advocacy for the cultural and political evolution of electronic music brings a revitalizing, forward-thinking energy to the scene. From her residencies at Amsterdam's Club RAUM, Munich’s Blitz Club or to her solid footing as a regular at Berghain’s Panorama Bar, BASHKKA’s sound exudes a powerful energy and rhythm that you have to move your body to. Irreversibly shaped by a decade in New York City—a place she describes as her rebirth—this period has been pivotal to BASHKKA’s creative and personal development. In a city where cultures intersect, diversity thrives, and LGBTQIA+ history is sacred, the impact on her artistry has been profound. Outside the DJ booth, the Munich-born and raised artist’s resolute integrity fuels her activism and devotion to her community. Her passionate support for SWANA and queer voices, along with her tribute to dance music culture rooted in Black and Brown communities, redefines electronic music’s rebellious spirit for today’s nightlife. With her debut EP "Maktub" claiming the number one spot in 2023 and taking the music scene by storm, BASHKKA has firmly established herself as a trailblazing producer. Her ability to effortlessly fuse bold creativity with technical mastery is showcased in her collaboration as well as in her numerous cutting-edge remixes that don’t just resonate—they set the bar! JakoJako is committed to exploring the spaces that emerge between the technical and emotional sides of electronic music, fostering a relationship to sound that implements both rigorous knowledge and unrestrained intuition. Engaged in a constant dialogue around the use of hardware in music, JakoJako’s artistic output is informed by the tension and release of techno, but
