Info
Sonja Moonear returns to Dublin at Yamamori Tengu.
With a career spanning over two decades as a DJ and producer with a reputation for discerning record selection and a flair for funky leaning techno and trippy house, Sonja Moonear is a pioneer in her field.
The Swiss native cut her teeth in the Geneva squat scene of the mid 90s before becoming a resident at Weetamix, the city’s key club for the subsequent blossoming days of electronic culture. She connected with the minimal scene that led to becoming a mainstay on the Perlon imprint.
Following multiple collaborations and playing at clubs and festivals worldwide, she restarted the vinyl-only imprint Ruta5. From this, she started organising parties, from the late Kiss me! Festival to Cabaret fantastique.
As a collector and DJ, her spiritual home is Club Der Visionaere, the institution founded by Zip and Ricardo Villalobos. Sonja develops her own rhythmic, versatile style that takes in a broad cross-section of house, techno and minimal. With releases on labels such as Karat and Perlon, her work also expands across other disciplines as sound designer.
A regular at clubs and festivals such as fabric, Sunwaves, Cocoon, Time Warp and Houghton, Sonja has played notable sets worldwide.
Nurture Records founder and Dublin based Dufi opens proceedings, a dedicated digger of forgotten gems. His sound spans the deeper ends of house, breaks, acid and electro and has brought his sets to clubs and festivals across Ireland and Europe alongside releases on labels such as Small Moves and SmallMoneyMusicLove.
