ophélie (DJ)
she/they
Sat May 31 | De Sering
Low frequencies, intricate percussion and bass-heavy music; The French, Berlin-based DJ and producer ophélie makes fluid, organic, and often melancholic aspects of music resulting in experimental sonic explorations. Using multiple layers of sounds they create weird (poly)rhythms, drawing inspiration from natural landscapes, such as the forest and ocean.
As an early lover of dub music, UK techno, IDM, and illegal raves, their sound often finds itself at the intersection between dubstep, techno, IDM, with hints of psychedelic music and trance. During FIBER Festival ophélie will play her sonic creations live, experimenting with FX, textures, granular and generative sounds, supported with all different kinds of percussion.
About the artist
ophélie’s Refuge Worldwide residency, Therapy Dog, and event series at Kwia, allow her to experiment and explore the different genres she’s into, while often sharing the decks with friends and like-minded artists. As part of Open Music Lab, a non-profit collective offering free music and production courses for people from Berlin’s diverse communities to connect and create together, she's interested in ways to support emerging artists outside the mainstream, in the hope to build a more equitable music scene. They released tracks on Pressure Dome, Bait, Early Reflex and traverse and released their debut EP on hundert Records in February 2024.
