upcoming Events
February 28th at Hot Mass
Juana / Ron Mist / Gusto
Juana has made her mark in DC as one of only a handful of techno DJs, as a member of the founding squad of the Sequence collective, led by Ron Jackson. Sequence was the first underground party committed to consistently showcasing local and global techno DJs and crafting a dark, dangerous, sometimes hellishly uncomfortable party vibe hitherto unavailable in the DC area. As a producer, her first release “Discipline Issues” was released as part of a compilation on Katie Rex’s Bound label, and her first independent EP “Floating” landed in 2020. Her most recent EP “Peaks” was released in July 2021, and she also appeared on the TRAX ONLY Soft Touch compilation in spring of 2021 and the Neighborhoods Vol. 1 compilation on World Building in fall of 2021. She is currently working on her first full-length album project for release in 2023.
Ron Mist (gov name Dylan Kersten) is a Pittsburgh DJ with a big love for dancing and inspiring others to find joy in dancing freely. He’s been spinning in clubs since 2021, starting out as a house producer/DJ. Since then, his sound has shifted to mostly techno after having a spiritual experience at a Claude Young Jr set at Spirit Lodge in 2022. In 2024, Mist joined Pittsburgh promoter/DJ crew Persona and was a part of starting their monthly techno residency at Spirit Lodge dubbed Jaguar. Playing alongside headliners such as DJ Seoul, WTCHCRFT, Lauren Flax, and many more has pushed and influenced Mist’s sound deeper into the underground. While he has a love for many sub-genres, you can expect his sets to be percussive, deep, and weave in and out of 4-on-the-floor and breaks.
Gusto Hot Mass Resident, Ondo / Gusto moved to Pittsburgh and immersed himself in the city’s ever-growing electronic scene, constantly refining his sound and performance to express both his love for electronic music and his urban/soulful roots.
