Features
For the fifth regular season finale of UltraMaroon this month, the theme of this episode is connecting UltraMaroon to the Amsterdam underground. As Someone From Berlin says, UM does not produce an underground event; however, it is informed by what is happening in underground scenes globally, and then does its own thing. With this in mind, we are proud to present a collaboration with Kraft und Licht, as part of their creative team, Subduction and VentroMedial, represents a taste of how their production crew creates audio-visual experiences together.
DJ and producer Sef Kombo has been immersed in the vibe, the rhythm, the culture, and the deeper roots of Afro House for more than 15 years at home in the UK and across the globe. He has played alongside Black Coffee, Themba, Culoe De Song, Diplo, and Black Motion. Kombo is recognized on the international stage, having played at Defected Croatia and Roskilde Festival as well as for Boiler Room, DJ Mag, Hï Ibiza, Djoon, Watergate, and Blue Marlin.
BIIANCO is the multi-instrumental music producer, vocalist and overall mad-scientist in a new era of electronic music. The common threads of playful acid, breaks and trance that run through the punchy productions are reminiscent of the Chemical Brothers with the mainstream appeal of a more emotional Jamie XX. They’ve garnered press from outlets like NOTION, Wonderland Mag, Billboard, EDM Identity, tmrw and more, while also catching the attention of pioneering tastemaker labels such as Armada, This Never Happened and Part Four.
Peter Napoli is a true artist, homegrown in New York City, and part of the UltraMaroon fam. With more than fifteen years behind the decks, he has built a sound that respects the history of NYC’s legendary clubbing eras and continues pushing it forward. Napoli takes crowds on a journey with a blend of all genres of dance music at venues across all of North and South America, and continues to build his music production skills with labels including Aviance Records, Swishcraft Music, and Whore House Recordings.
