Veronica Maximova
Veronica Maximova is a Berlin-based electronic pop producer who blends classical piano playing with experimental production. Her music reflects her restless life journey, having become an immigrant, a runaway bride, and a new mother. Veronica's work is distinguished by her fluency in multiple languages, which imbues her lyrics with a sense of clarity and diaristic quality. Her first vinyl release, "Computerlove," explores the paradox of technological interconnectedness and ineffable loneliness. Veronica's "Ordinary Forever" EP was released in 2022 on Sony imprint AWAL, featuring the Lee Avant mix of "Shame on You." She also collaborates with other producers, including L/F/D/M, with whom she recorded "Obsolete Vernacular" for the "Mothership" compilation.

cadeu
[kɒ.ˈdə.woo] Berlin-based producer and sound designer, cadeu has been blending club experiments for the past decade. Often his music is paired with research, whether it’s 2017 album ‘de’ that explores reduced dynamics of the dance music, 2018’s ‘un’ experimenting with format and composition or 2022’s “EX” that seeks to deconstruct language to reveal its raw sonic identity.

Eigenform
An electronic music and multimedia project started in Berlin by Artem Popov, a programmer and musician coming from West Siberia, Russia.

His performances are largely improvised, with his own custom plugins and sequencers being key components of his creative process.
