// INÊS DUARTE // 
 
15 years may not seem like a long time for Inês Duarte's DJ career, but the truth is she is no longer the young girl who entered the dance floor first and left last. A resident at the iconic Lisbon club Lux Frágil and a regular presence in various booths throughout the country, she is a fierce activist for long sets but also delights in proving that the warmup is not a lost art, or that in 2 hours one can try to do a little more than just unravel high-energy track after high energy track. With a remarkable passion and knowledge of House Music in its various forms, she mixes it with a neo-progressive sound and Techno that doesn't necessarily need to be fast to enchant, along with dashes of Breakbeat, Acid, and Trance, which you can rest assured do not fall into questionable territories. With the clear goal of creating well-defined moments during a set, if you find yourselves in rushes of joy, ecstasy, unity, or even unease, the mission has been accomplished. That, and if after the last record you are at least a little happier than before the first. // VICKY P // 
 
Vicky P is the head of Tropicana Records, a Lisbon-based record label and events platform rooted in community-driven club culture. Her DJ sets have taken her from local underground floors to international stops, including Paris, Lisbon, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo. At its core, Vicky P’s sound is rooted in feel-good house music, fused with classic house, deep-tech, progressive house, and Latin-influenced underground sounds, many released through her own label, resulting in fluid, groove-led selections designed for long-form dancefloor narratives. Active behind the decks since 2015, she continues to gain momentum through Tropicana Records showcases and appearances beyond the collective’s orbit. With a growing international profile, her focus remains on unified dancefloor energy—those late-night moments when the room locks in and moves as one. 
// SHERI VARI // 

 Holding a long curriculum that stretches back to over a decade behind the decks, Mariana Cruz syntheses a vast experience as both a resident and a guest dj to numerous clubs, under a pseudonym that evokes history, respect, confidence, freedom and mastery: Sheri Vari. Her repertoire is not so much in style, but rather in concept: from seductive downbeat to synth funk, classic disco or new wave, up to the deepest and sexiest house, the most emotional techno or abrasive acid, down to ground shattering UK sub breaks or the atomic, introspective Berlin groove, Sheri is only interested in one thing: ever lasting Truth.
