NULLA

ĐAKKA

Eva Djaković alias ĐAKKA has become a DJ only recently, when she was selected as a new DJ resident at Radio Študent. Soon, she entered the alternative music scene, notably, the dance clubs at AKC Metelkova. She does not believe in sticking to specific genres but rather strives to make her DJ sets dynamic and explosive, inducing fast beats and a touch of tenderness.

ANÁSTA

Anastazija Pirnat alias anásta is a visual artist, DJ, and activist from Slovenj Gradec. The main focus of her work is painting, while since 2021 she has been a member of the Ljubljana queer DJ collective Ustanova. You might’ve seen her spin in the lesbian club Monokel, Channel Zero, Pritličje, and Cukrarna, or have perhaps heard her sets on the DJ Afterparty on Radio Študent. Her music selection is genre-fluid, as she is interested in researching different genres and subgenres of electronic music and the possibilities of combining them.

SAIPAN

A self-proclaimed top DJ. A musical empath who can sometimes tell what people are dancing to simply by observing their facial expressions, screams, and how they wiggle and they jiggle. Likes to cite a famous person: “Genres are so last CD”. Two non-private events and one 10-hour birthday set, with mostly girls yadda yadda, so underground, right? Not afraid of the classics, yet not a complete music snob.

SOFTSKINSON

Softskinson alias Fejzo, one of Ljubljana’s long time favourite DJs, can be found spinning some italo dream house jams at a chill party, a minute later opening for SHXCXCHCSH with some dark banging techno stompers, showing his eclectic music affinities with a mixture of funky disco, old-school rave slappers, and acid house rarities, or producing beats and drumming for the band YGT. He’s shared the stage with artists like Leon Vynehall, Glenn Astro, Frits Wentink, and many, many others. And now, he’s returning to Spider.
