Show Lineup
Austen Von
(Milwaukee, WI)
Genre: DJ
Zeke AKA Austen Von has been throwing events for 15 years and DJing for 10. Born and raised
in Milwaukee, they relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area for 12 years where they hosted and
DJ’d house parties and warehouse raves, started a gallery space and music venue, and came
to realize that they prefer Milwaukee’s more genuine and grassroots approach to art and music.
Since 2022 Zeke has been back home, playing and throwing events at places like Falcon Bowl,
Company Brewing, and Kadish Park. They play a wide range of genres from indie RnB and
ambient jazzy house to heavy breakbeats and liquid drum and bass. Lately most of their work
has revolved around Transpire, an organization dedicated to creating sober spaces for queer
dance events, accessible fitness, and harm-reduction community building.
DJ DR!PSweat
(Milwaukee, WI)
Genre: DJ
DRiPSweat was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She grew up as a student of performing and visual arts, naturally leading to an entrepreneurial path of being a full-time artist, musician, and DJ. Known for her original and technical mixing, paired with her one-of-a-kind stage presence, DRiPSweat’s uncanny, genre-fluid finesse keeps crowds groovin.
Part of what makes her a crowd-favourite is her empathic ability to read the room and play something for everyone, making her sets universally entertaining and pleasantly unpredictable. Some of her favourite genres are hip-hop, r&b, funk, house, disco, dance and world music. Her personal projects involve intentionally curating themed mixes surrounding empowerment, healing, humor, love, and discovery.
Beyond her passion for DJing, DRiPSweat is a producer, singer, dancer, poet, and more recently a sound-healing practitioner and organic farmer. Her ultimate motivation is to provide good-for-your-soul mixes and to encourage the magic of. . .dripping sweat. #divein 💦💦💦
Delilac
(Milwaukee, WI)
Genre: Electronic
Delilac, a Milwaukee resident and Apart artist, has a sonic range that covers a vast array of sounds. Regardless of the specific vibe, her selections always bring a raw energy that is strongly connected to the roots of rave culture. For her contribution to Kajunga Program, she throws down a slew of deep and groovy jungle tracks.
Greyhound
(Milwaukee, WI)
Genre: Electronic
Greyhound is the dance floor music project of Dylan Mentzer. A Milwaukee-based DJ and producer, Greyhound has been making a name for himself in the greater Midwest techno community since 2017. Growing up on Chicago house and Detroit techno greatly influenced his sound. A love of UK bassline and Grime additionally informs his approach to producing. In 2021, Greyhound was added as a resident DJ at Milwaukee’s Club Ritual, an underground monthly founded in 2016. In 2022, Greyhound partnered with Chicago DJ Junior Kurtis to form the record label Pulaski Recreational Unit.
