Chikiss
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Galina Ozerna aka Chikiss is the songstress, composer and producer. Having recorded her first album in 2005, she has produced a large musical output from post-punk and psychedelic rock to minimalistic synthpop and spectral electronic. As a solo artist and in various collabs she has created a personal and idiosyncratic style. 
 Born in Belarus. At the age of nineteen she moved to St.-Petersburg, Russia. Since 2015 lives in Berlin. She began her work on stage in the noise-punk ensemble “Nervenklinik” and then transferred to the psycho-rock outfit “188910”(2005 - 2009). At this period she has founded her own band – Chikiss.
 She made remixes and worked with a plenty of artists such as Ensemble Economique, Thomas Azier, Eva Geist, Bad Hammer, Mustelide, Pilocka Krach, Maya Postepski, Perforated Cerebral Party, Franz Bargmann, milky toad, Barbara Morgenstern, and others. 
 As a child of soviet era sci-fi, Chikiss was taken by the faded glory of suggested futures that never came to be, drawing on nostalgic futurism, brand new, yet nodding to obscure numbers by long forgotten, or little known internationally soviet acts.

Garçon Gaston
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Garçon Gaston is born on the coast of Ukranian-Azov sea and emigrated to Germany 20 years ago. He has been collecting and playing music for almost a decade. His eclectic approach to setting up the storytelling developed through the time and combined listening but also danceable elements.
For the last two years, he is also running the underground event series "Obscure Obsession" in Berlin. Trying to connect scene and music-lovers who are not visible.
Mystic, dark and sometimes funny (meant with a wink), he put some Slacid, Leftfield-Disco, Electro, and Wave from his Vinyl collection for the LAYERS Mix. Some of our favorite examples of these genres are hidden in this three-hour-long mix
