Bota By Night: Roni, Leonce, Shoplifter, Cyvira

Roni is a Parisian-Malaysian DJ, producer and head of Nehza Records. She blends techno, Latin-inspired percussive sounds, bass music and UK-infused tracks, crafting sets that explore the diversity of today’s club landscape.

After discovering Parisian clubs at a young age, her education in electronic music spans over two decades. As an artist, she has released and collaborated with labels like Fever AM, Traverse and Rhythm Section. Roni founded Nehza Records in 2021 to spotlight rising talents, celebrate global club culture and advocate for the protection of nature through music and visual art.

2025 marked the release of her debut EP Celestial on Nehza Records: nine club-driven tracks with basslines, detailed textures and melodic elements. Celestial features solo tracks by Roni, collaborative productions with DJ Babatr and Ma Sha, and remixes from Bitter Babe, Audrey Danza, Peder Mannerfelt and JKS.

Born and raised in New Orleans and now living in Atlanta, Leonce blends elements of American urban music and experimental electronica, a style that shaped his development as a producer. He co-founded Club Morph in 2016 and its electronic-hybrid imprint label Morph Tracks. DJs supporting Leonce’s tracks have included DJ Holographic, Fred again, Mochakk, Virgil Abloh, Honey Dijon, Brodinski, Pangaea, Midland, Moxie, Joy Orbison, Leon Vynehall, Seth Troxler, Ben UFO and The Carry Nation.

2023 saw Leonce producing and headlining Atlanta’s Boiler Room in April, then touring in London, Berlin, Milan, Edinburgh, Manchester and Barcelona. In August, he supported the Atlanta tour stop on Beyonce’s Renaissance Tour at Atlanta’s Mercedes Benz Stadium. In October, Leonce remixed Kai Alcé and Ash Lauryn’s Underground & Black and teamed up with British-Ghanaian artist Karen Nyame KG on the track Nightryde, which featured in DJ Mag and Mixmag. November saw Leonce share the Elsewhere Main Stage in New York with Boys Noize.

Spring 2024 brought the release of Leonce's debut album System of Objects. In May 2024, Leonce embarked on another EU headline run, followed by single releases on LuckyMe and Nervous Records. To cap off 2024, Leonce supported Fred again two nights in a row at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena. His music featured on year-end lists via RA's Best 25 Tracks of 2024 and DJ Mag's Top Albums of 2024. In 2025, Leonce continued to tour at a fast pace, including debuts at Glastonbury and Under The K Bridge. With a recent release on Fabric and a new EP out soon, Leonce continues to build his position on the global club and techno scene.

Shoplifter is one of the rising names in the Belgian electronic underground and has quickly established herself as a DJ with a finely tuned sense of dancefloor intuition. With musical foundations rooted in UK bass, breakbeats and dub-adjacent club music, her sets unfold within an organic, free-flowing narrative, emphasising warm, wonky and immersive aspects of club music. Guided by context as much as sound, shoplifter approaches each set as a response to space, time and energy.

Her selections favour movement and texture over repetition and rigidity, balancing bouncy low-end pressure with flashes of off-kilter moments. Consistently musically curious and evolving sonically, she strives to connect the dots between her foundational genres. 2025 has marked a breakout year. Regularly appearing across Brussels and Antwerp, she has taken to stages in Amsterdam and Rotterdam, shared line-ups with artists such as Sammy Virji, Pearson Sound, Modeselektor and Lander & Adriaan, and featured in a series of high-profile moments, including a set on Kiosk & Lot Radio’s stage at Horst Festival, and a live B2B alongside Fred again..., Kōma, Lauravioli and DC Noises. With her recent addition to the Culte agency roster, shoplifter continues to bridge genres, prioritise community and develop a sound rooted in bass culture.

Cyvira is a Brussels-based DJ and member of the Gloom Club collective. Her musical selection reflects the diversity of her origins and identity. She blends different styles of electronic music, with a preference for percussive rhythms.

Her sets move from hard drum to electro funk and bass music, with touches of breaks and dub. Always looking for new combinations, she likes to fuse several genres while keeping a groove that defines her signature.
