UNITÉ.22 - YENKOV RESIDENCY : TWIENA, ETIENNE NOGUES, YENKOV

Summer is far from over, and our resident Yenkov continues to heat up the atmosphere with a line-up that smells of purring grooves, 90s melodies, and psychedelic vibes.

First date in Marseille for TWIENA, the DJ and producer who keeps bombarding the scene with emotion and intensity through her productions blending Techno, contemporary Trance, and acid textures. A multifaceted artist straight from Amsterdam who has long developed a sharp and mastered aesthetic, already found everywhere in the USB drives of your favorite DJs.

We know all about Yenkov’s love for ethereal melodies and chopped-up vocals that resonate rhythmically to better capture the essence of the dancefloor, and it is only natural that Etienne Nogues joins this line-up with his explosive genre fusion.

As funky as he is trancy, the producer from Rennes returns to Marseille to round out this line-up which promises to gallop as fast as the days will shorten in September.

Another masterclass date for the madrina of Animals Industry, definitely not to be missed.

—————— TWIENA Based in the heart of Amsterdam, TWIENA redefines electronic music and club culture through a perspective shaped by her experience within the Vietnamese diaspora. Drawing on her heritage while integrating various global influences, she has crafted a style that balances control and instinct, guided more by intuition than convention. Rooted in tactile and evolving club music, her sound is raw, innovative, and dynamic, enriched with rhythmic textures and powerful bass energy. By exploring the vast spectrum of techno, she makes her sets unpredictable, integrating international club influences, polyrhythms, deep basslines mixed with Latin elements, tribal textures, and electronic rhythms tailored for the dancefloor. A staple of Amsterdam's club scene, TWIENA has been a resident DJ at the queer club RAUM, where she stood out for her both rhythmic and playful techno sets. Her performances across Europe—from RAUM and Panorama Bar to Bassiani, Blitz, and festivals such as Lowlands, DGTL, and Awakenings Upclose—reflect her openness to the world while shaping her understanding of sound. Alongside her live performances, TWIENA explores her sonic signature in her bi-monthly show on Echobox, "XXX TWIENA," by diving into the heart of the rhythms, textures, and atmospheres that define her music. The show progressively shapes a coherent and versatile identity, true to her vision; she balances precision and chaos while highlighting the depth, cultural perspective, and energy she infuses into every dancefloor. As a producer, TWIENA continues to explore various soundscapes, inspired by her Vietnamese roots, global influences, and solid club background. Her latest tracks are designed for the high-energy moments of the night, while remaining nuanced, playful, and flexible; they go beyond simple melodic hooks to resonate with the real needs of the dancefloor. With her upcoming releases, she is set to further expand her artistic vision, constantly blending heritage, innovation, and pleasure at the heart of her music.
