Strictly Strictly With Jesse G & Rakr

Berlin-based label strictly strictly continues its expedition north, returning to Jolene for another night celebrating friendship and hypnotic oscillations.

They invited long-time friend and regular guest DJ Jesse G who is known for her energetic, genre-spanning sets that surprise and delight crowds. The Berlin-based Techno DJ’s big sound is a playful wide range medley of deep, metallic and trippy to groovy, jacking, percussive sounding Techno with diverse rhythms and UK bass influence. Her distinctive sound is also informed by an encyclopedic understanding of electronic music and her craft honed over her nearly six years as an integral member of the staff at the hallowed Berlin record store, Hard Wax. In addition to holding down a residency at RSO Berlin, she has brought her sound to venues such as De School, Berghain, Open Ground, and BLITZ; and graced festivals including ADE Het Weekend and the beloved Nachtdigital's Nachtiville.

She’ll be joined by Dj rakr AKA Esben Smith who has a long history of throwing weird parties with big sub stacks on top and inside of public infrastructure, and warehouses. With his beginnings in San Diego, through Berlin, and for the latest years, as the founder of the Markley party series in Copenhagen, his sound is usually reliant on bass heavy, non-straight techno beats, mixed with UK bass and dub techno, finished with an atmospheric and soulful backdrop.

Closing out the night is strictly strictly co-founder klex, who will channel years of experience in Berlin’s underground scene into a fast-paced journey through deep and hypnotic techno.
