Focus: Katie Rex - Kyruh - Dj Unt.Il

Saturday, September 9, 2023 Doors 10PM Advance Tickets on sale now. To New York City’s dance floors, the name Katie Rex, is a familiar mainstay. With roots beginning in the Philadelphia rave scene, her passion for the underground has crossed genre boundaries and culminated into an in-depth knowledge of music and cultural trends after dark. Rex’s sets fuse industrial sonic landscapes with ceiling busting rave anthems and the harsher sides of techno. She's shared the bill with top artists across genres, staying true to her passion for progressive sounds. Rex’s infamous event series turned multifaceted lifestyle platform, BOUND, has received international acclaim with features from VOGUE, The New York Times, Vice, Resident Advisor, and many more. Marrying the celebration sex work and need for safer spaces for marginilized bodies headonistic enjoyment, BOUND has reached an audience that transcends any one location. They’ve hosted events outside of Brooklyn in Miami, Los Angeles, & Detroit. In February 2018 Rex released the first ever global fetishwear guide through BOUND. In December 2019 BOUND announced itself as a record label, specializing in special projects. The first release (following an inaugural compilation in January 2019) is a remix package for FEE LION with tracks from Silent Servant, Minimal Violence, Kontravoid, & Multiple Man. Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, KYRUH became a techno devotee frequenting parties such as the now defunct Solarplexia, a DIY series held in various haunts across the city. For her, it’s venues like Bossa Nova Civic Club that feel like home; renowned for its forward-thinking line-ups, it’s one of the first clubs that booked her and continues to support her rise. KYRUH has a longstanding love for dancing, and her DJ sets explore tracks that make her body move. She favours techno with a groove, often minimal in other elements, but with rolling kicks, and bass as the driving force. Her club sets are energetic, high octane, and often hypnotising. “When I’m looking for a track, I’m visualising myself on the dancefloor hearing it... What does it feel like? What does that look like? Do I feel like I want to dance right now? I’m looking for tracks that get my heart jumping,” she explains. For KYRUH, it’s been a fast ascent since her first gig in 2021, and her story is still only just beginning. As well as her copious amounts of energy and dedication to techno, she’s passionate about the clubs that she plays being a space for inclusivity and expression. “In these spaces, there’s so much anonymity — even as a DJ. The thing that I love about it is [it’s] this space where you can mould into who you want to be without the pressure of who you are and who you have been. You can be no one and everyone all at once.” // Club Level // Katie Rex (NYC) soundcloud.com/katierexofficial ra.co/dj/katierex KYRUH (NYC) soundcloud.com/kyruhx ra.co/dj/kyruh dj unt.il soundcloud.com/kstradamus ra.co/dj/djunt-il // Green Room: [open-to-close] // Danielle Sadcliffe (Fantastic Voyage) soundcloud.com/daniellesadcliffe soundcloud.com/fantastic-voyage-music // Flash Bar // Soul Service soundcloud.com/soulservicedmv linktr.ee/soulservicedmv _________________________________ ⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶ Flash Safe Space Policy ⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶ Flash stands firmly against non-consensual behavior, discrimination, harassment or harm of any kind.
