SXCL

FAYIM is a Berlin-based singer-songwriter, composer, and performer who balances depth and lightness with his lyrics, distinctive voice, and captivating presence. His debut EP “Fokus” (2025) blends pop, R&B, soul, gospel, and jazz with German-language lyrics, placing the Black, queer artist at the center of his own story. Deeply inspired by the late Black artist and activist May Ayim, FAYIM sings not only to process his experiences but also to empower.

OMAR KTD is a Berlin-based Syrian singer, songwriter, and producer working within Arabic avant-pop, queer pop and alternative pop. The music blends electronic textures, lamentation-inspired vocals, and soft glitch aesthetics to create an emotionally direct sound infused with Arabic queer sensibility, challenging dominant narratives of masculinity while celebrating fluid identities. OMAR KTD released the debut album “Hidden Questions” in 2025.

SXCL is a versatile musician from Réunion Island. As a producer and DJ since 2017, their style has morphed with time to fit their eclectic taste. Going from house to progressive trance, to electro and more recently to old-school techno, their versatility has brought them to venues in Berlin and far beyond. Sensitive to the intricate textures of electronic music, SXCL crafts their sets with meticulous care, prioritizing the audience’s journey above all else.
