Sophia Saze
(Dusk & Haze, Get Physical Music, NYC)
Beginning her musical journey in her formative years with classical music and dance training, Sophia Saze later became engulfed by electronic dance music. Getting to know this artist, it is easy to understand that she comes from a solid and natural musical foundation. Tbilisi, Georgia born and internationally bred, she’s now based in Brooklyn, New York. DJ-ing and producing for 6 years, Saze launched her record label Dusk & Haze in 2017. The first installment is her own ‘Solace’ EP [D&H001], which includes remixes from Benjamin Damage & UMWELT. The productions stem from techno, yet include even electro and certain kraut influences, showing her range as a musician. 2017 also saw Sophia being signed to renowned label Get Physical where her track ‘Fall’ appears on their Words Don’t Come Easy Compilation [GPMCD112], showcasing a more soulful downtempo side of the producer. These two fresh releases have gained attention in the print versions of both DJmag, GROOVE-Magazin, & Mixmag, as well as airplay on BBC Radio 1 & NTS Radio, amongst many others. Equally as much as she is a producer, she’s also a DJ. Sophia Saze shapes the records she chooses for her sets into a carefully sculpted and characteristic groove. Keeping the journey on the border of house and techno, including electro and more spaced-out moments, she keeps the beat, the floor, and the dancers intact, always heading forward. Sophia is currently between her touring schedule and working on a new live show with upcoming releases, including her debut album set for release in 2018.

Boo Lean
(VIA, girlFx, PGH)
Boo Lean (Lauren Goshinski), is a founding member of Pittsburgh's girlFx music collective and director of the VIA Festival. While she has been the woman behind some incredible lineups, audio-visual performances, and collaborations, few know she's also a DJ and current resident at Hot Mass.

Lauren has shared the stage with the likes of Jlin, Dj Haram, DJ Minx,
KINGDOM, Jasmine Infiniti, Air Max '97, and UNIIQU3. "DJing for me, whether a private or public practice, is the way I've been able to find my own voice amongst the noise, and stay intimately connected with the people and sounds that give me life." As a curator, event producer, and artist, her work is dedicated to diversifying the fields of music, digital art, and club culture through experimentation and cultural exchange.
