Live in the mix! Happy to introduce the new Live @ Flight Mode mix series - recordings pulled straight from the vaults and delivered directly to your ears, raw and uncut.
Kicking off with a โก๏ธdazzling duo of daddiesโก๏ธ- DJ City and La Schmock.
Two seasoned veterans - DJs, producers, organisers - whose individual brilliance is matched only by the electricity they generate together. They brought that alchemy to Renateโs red room for the October 2024 Flight Mode full-club takeover, and the tapes donโt lie.
Expect raw, pulsating house, mind-melting acid and electro, and some italo-disco sprinkled for extra fun.
DJ City came up as a resident at Cocktail dโAmore and never really left โ now splitting time between Berlin and Stockholm with residencies at Paloma Bar and Radio 80000, and releases on Public Possession, Permanent Vacation and Uncanny Valley.
La Schmock is a Berlin fixture โ Gegen stalwart, resident of the much-loved now-defunct Lunchbox Candy, with recent releases on Italo Moderni and Klub Kid Records turning heads.
Together they co-founded Bad Dad, Berlinโs queer night initially hosted at the legendary Zur Klappe, now onto a new home.
Bad Dad is hosting a Fatherโs Day takeover at the Renate Garden this Thursday, May 14th - be sure not to miss!
Sanaz b2b Vio PRG
Tehran-born, Berlin-based Sanaz is a resident of Club Heart Broken, where she channels pure emotion into motion.
Deeply rooted in house music in all its forms, her sets move fluidly between fast and slow, classic and contemporary, always guided by rhythm and feeling. She weaves different shades of house into seamless narratives, balancing drive with warmth and keeping the dancefloor connected through groove, energy, and soul.
As part of THF Community Radio, Sanaz hosts her monthly show Spectrum, a space that refuses to stay within one genre, allowing her to showcase the full spectrum of her musical taste.
Vio PRG moves between genres on instinct, guided less by rules and more by timing, intuition, and the energy of the moment. As Flight Mode curator, she shapes each floor with care, bringing together artists whose selections and styles intertwine naturally, giving each room its own arc, keeping the whole night in sync, and sparking spaces that feel warm, and easy to lose yourself in.

Ola Teks moves through the Polish scene as both a DJ and promoter, with residencies at Jasna 1 in Warsaw and Ulica Elektrykรณw in Gdaลsk. Her sets sit somewhere between deep techno and classic houseโcontrolled, but never staticโalways tuned to the room rather than forcing it.
Since 2015, sheโs been behind Move Mรณzg, a series that folds visual art into the night without it feeling like an afterthought. That same attention to detail carries into her DJing: selections feel considered, but still instinctive.
Thereโs a clear thread in how she blends analog textures with more modern edges, building sets that unfold rather than peak too early. Support from platforms like Boiler Room, Arte Concert, Mixmag, and Radiant Records tracksโbut doesnโt defineโwhat she does.

The red floor will open at 11pm - early birds welcome!
Our next guest is Carloโฃ๏ธ Over the years, he has solidified his position as a connoisseur of all things House, a versatile DJ, producer, and astute professional both in and out of the studio.
His indelible mark on the Berlin music scene is evident through performances at iconic venues across the city, a seven year curation of Aterral events at Watergate, and releases on esteemed labels such as Classic Music Company and Shall Not Fade. Additionally, he manages his own imprint, Aterral.
Currently, Carlo holds a residency at StudioClub in his hometown of Mรกlaga. His musical journey has spanned the globe, with performances from Japan to Canada and Mexico. These experiences, combined with his passion for discovering new music, have culminated in the unique sound of his sets.
We asked Carlo to spotlight 3 of his favorite records so far:
Carlo - Azizi
This was one of the first vinyl releases I put out on my own, and it holds a very special place in my heart. I even handed a copy to Moodymann when he came to Berlin, and he played it at a summer festival in Amsterdam. Session Victim also played this one a lot and this is I got to know them.
Baloo & Carlo - Vera
After a few years of making music with Baloo, Iโve got to say we really hit the mark with this one. Itโs the perfect blend of our two musical visions.
Carlo - Anais
This is one of the standout tracks I made with Black Loops in a studio I used to have back in the day, and it holds some really great memories from that time.

Time to introduce the guests for this Saturdayโs takeover.
TWO EX, the Madrid-based duo of Margott and Adri, are sound sisters known for their fearless range and improvisational mastery.

As core figures of the Spanish nightlife scene and regulars at institutions like El Sรณtano and Cafรฉ Berlรญn, they have expanded their reach across Europeโs most discerning dance floors. Currently, they are the creative force and promoters behind HOLLYWOOD at Cadavra Club, where they curate immersive experiences featuring international artists and live performances.

The inaugural Flight Mode of 2026 in the newly re-opened Renate features local legend Carlo, founder of Aterral and purveyor of wavy, soul-drenched grooves on vinyl, alongside Madrid stars and Hollywood hosts TWO EX. Hosting the night as always Vio PRG, fresh off her Panorama Bar debut.
Carlo has solidified his position as a connoisseur of all things house over years of performances at iconic Berlin venues and a seven-year curation of Aterral events at the now-shuttered Watergate. The Spanish-born DJ and producer founded his own imprint Aterral, named after the hot winds of his native Mรกlaga, with releases on esteemed labels like Classic Music Company and Shall Not Fade. Currently holding a residency at StudioClub in Mรกlaga, his sets draw from a global musical journey spanning Japan to Saudi Arabia, Canada to Mexico, delivering the wavy, soul-drenched grooves on vinyl that have made him a local legend.
TWO EX, Madrid duo Adriana and Rosa, sisters in sound, are known for their fearless range and improvisational approach in the booth. Their sets traverse downtempo, acid, and dark disco through melodic house and breakbeat to driving techno, each performance unique and unrepeatable. Regulars at Madrid institutions El Sรณtano and Cafรฉ Berlรญn, theyโve expanded their reach across Europeโs most discerning floors.
Vio PRG has spent the past decade shaping Berlinโs scene from every angle: event organizer, music journalist, radio host, and DJ. The Bucharest-born artist became a Renate resident in 2023 and hosts the monthly Flight Mode show on Refuge Worldwide. Her Panorama Bar debut in January 2026 marks the latest milestone in a steadily ascending trajectory.
See you there?
