INTRODUCING OUR HEADLINERS PRETTYMESSY (jaag b2b ARINI) // jaag ( @____jaag____ ) SF-based Bay Area native Neha aka jaag delivers high-energy, genre-fluid sets influenced by ’90s South Asian producers, the 2000s hyphy movement, and ancient Carnatic vocals, blending breaks, trance, acid, and global percussion. She co-runs Maja Blast ( @majablast415 ) with SF DJ nofi and has shared lineups with KSHMR, Jai Wolf, Anish Kumar, MEMBA, Manila Killa, Nanoos, Devault, Yung Singh, RL GRIME, Bastiengoat, Chloe Robinson, and Father. // ARINI ( @arineeee ) ARINI is a Brooklyn-based Bangladeshi-American DJ, born and raised in the Bay Area. Known for her genre-bending sets, she blends bass, UKG, and Bengali sounds — bringing a fresh take on connecting EDM and global club scenes. Raised in the Bay Area rave scene and attending electronic shows since 2013, she has opened for artists such as Jai Wolf, Ahadadream, CHYL, MEMBA, and Evan Giia, performed at Brownies & Lemonade events, and become a fan favorite on dance floors across the U.S. // prettymessy ( @prettymessy.v1 ) prettymessy is a DJ duo project by SF-based jaag and NY-based ARINI. Best friends for over a decade, they each began their own DJ journeys before coming together to create prettymessy in 2024 — a collaboration born from their creative chemistry and shared love for music. Their multi-genre club sets fuse heavy basslines and percussive energy from South Asian and SWANA influences, opening for acts like Ahadadream, Coffintexts, MEMBA, Nanoos, and more. At its core, prettymessy is rooted in their deep love for one another and for the dance floor — a space for movement, laughter, and boundless exploration. // WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THEM TEAR THE DECKS UP

INTRODUCING NELLIE ( @mnstrclub ) // Nellie is a DJ known for creating immersive, emotionally charged dance experiences that blend deep house and Afro house with hypnotic Arabic influences. Proud of her Lebanese heritage, she weaves Middle Eastern textures and melodies into her sets, creating a sound that feels both ancestral and modern. Rooted in the underground scene, her approach is sensual, rhythmic, and intentional; designed to connect bodies and spirits on the dance floor. With an intuitive ability to read energy, she transforms spaces into intimate sonic journeys where music becomes movement and movement becomes connection. // WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT SHE HAS IN STORE FOR US MARCH 7TH // #desi #lebanese #dilse #desidiaspora #dallas
