SELECT4 #05: Inès Rau
Inès Rau blends hypnotic house, disco influences and raw underground energy into emotionally charged sets that pull you deep into the dancefloor.
Raised between Paris, New York and Ibiza, she was shaped by the pulse of underground nightlife ; from the soulful queer house culture of New York to the sensual freedom of Ibizaâs iconic club scene.
Immersed early on in these worlds, she developed a sound that feels both instinctive and deeply magnetic.
As someone who has always navigated the world through freedom, transformation and self-expression, she found in house music both a sanctuary and a powerful form of connection.
Between sensual grooves, immersive textures and powerful club energy, her music creates a space where freedom, connection and elevation take over. From Pacha and Amnesia Ibiza to Burning Man and Rex Club Paris, Inès continues to bring her energy to dancefloors around the world.
Weâre thrilled to have her in a new episode of SELECT4.
Come along for this electric journey â¤ď¸âđĽ
SELECT4 is our tribute to DJs, the musical architects, vibe creators and genius curators.

TO ALL THE LOVERS WHO HAS BEEN HERE FOR YEARS AND MAY FEEL LIKE I LEFT YOU . IâM SORRY.
WHAT YOUâVE SEEN OF ME ON IG THESE PAST FEW YEARS MAY HAVE FELT DISTANT, POLISHED AND INACCESSIBLE.
I WAS DEEPLY HURT BY SUCCESSIVE WAVES OF HATE I RECEIVED. FIRST IN THE U.S. AFTER PLAYBOY. THEN AGAIN THE MBAPPĂ SITUATION. IT WAS INTENSE. I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO DISTANCE MYSELF.
AT SOME POINT, I STARTED TO SEE THE ONLINE WORLD AS A HOSTILE PLACE. FILLED WITH PEOPLE WHO SEEMED TO ONLY HATE . IT NO LONGER FELT SAFE.
I TOOK REFUGE IN AN INDUSTRY THAT HAS ALWAYS PROTECTED ME AND HONORED ME. I CREATED DISTANCE FROM THE PUBLIC NOT OUT OF ARROGANCE, BUT AS A PROTECTION.
TODAY, AS IâM HEALING, I WANT TO RECONNECT. TRULY. THROUGH WHAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY TRUTH. MUSIC.
AND THERE ALWAYS BEEN SO MUCH LOVE HERE AS WELL THAT I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR
IâM NOT âJUST ANOTHER MODEL WHO DJ.â MUSIC HAS BEEN MY LIFELINE SINCE I WAS 15. WHEN I WAS 17, I WAS HOMELESS BY CHOICE, AND MUSIC, CLUBS, HOUSE MUSIC, BECAME MY HOME. QUITE LITERALLY. IT MIRRORS THE VERY ORIGINS OF THIS CULTURE, CREATED BY MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES FOR WHOM THE DANCEFLOOR WAS A REFUGE, A FAMILY, A HOUSE. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN FOR ME.
AND TO THIS DAY, HOUSE MUSIC, ELECTRONIC MUSIC HAVE CONTINUED TO WALK WITH ME THROUGH EVERY CHAPTER OF MY LIFE. HAVE ALWAYS BROUGHT ME JOY, ENERGY, AND A DEEP SENSE OF ALIVENESS. THATâS WHY SHARING MUSIC FELT OBVIOUS. BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT IT CAN DO. IT MAKES PEOPLE FEEL GOOD. IT MAKES THEM HAPPY. IT CARRIES EMOTIONS, OPENS HEARTS, AND TAKES PEOPLE ON JOURNEYS. FAR AWAY. INTO BEAUTIFUL, LIBERATING SPACES.
THIS BURNING MAN SET IS DEEPLY MEANINGFUL ; I PLAYED IN DIFFICULT CONDITIONS. RAIN. COLD. . DOUBT. BUT I WAS SURROUNDED BY MY BEST FRIENDS, MY COMMUNITY, MY CAMP , THE FIRST MORROCAN/AFRICAN CAMP IN BM.
WHILE I WAS PLAYING, SOMETHING SHIFTED. I WASNâT TRYING TO CONTROL THE MUSIC. IT WAS FLOWING THROUGH ; THE TRACKS WERE COMING AS IF I WAS SIMPLY THE CHANNEL. I WAS JUST LETTING THE MUSIC MOVE, SPEAK, AND EXIST THROUGH
A QUIET CERTAINTY THAT IT IS EXACTLY WHERE IâM MEANT TO BE AND TO KEEP SHARING THE MAGIC.
PLEASE HAVE A LISTEN AND LET'S FLY TOGETHER!
