about
Join us at Headquarters for a night of dancing with the one and only Lucia Lu!
The Berlin-born DJ and full-time icon is fusing punchy sounds with her highly energetic presence, serving a musical specialité through every night, making her way, scratching through the surface of Berlin's still-dark electronic underground scene.
In a city of DJ transplants, the born and bred (East) Berliner LUCIA LU is a standout in more ways than one. The DJ, community organiser, podcaster, model, and co-founder of the popular Hoe_mies collective has become an unmistakable figure in a notoriously homogenous scene.
Lucia Lu’s warm, upbeat, and soulful sets merge the cathartic danceability of house and techno with sassy pop, hip-hop, and disco anthems from yesteryear. These powerful protests against the austere, self-serious atmosphere that dominates the electronic music sphere reflect Lu's commitment to positive change in the industry. Her sound, and the joyful and diverse crowds that it attracts, are loving tributes to the original spirit of electronic dance music—a genre pioneered by queer people of colour. They engineered a euphoric sound that allowed them to be and express themselves unapologetically, and to celebrate the beauty in one another, in total freedom.
Lu’s magnetic energy has attracted a loyal fandom who are just as enthusiastic about her music as they are about her commitment to making positive changes in the industry. With celebration and humour at the core of her sound, bliss is always in the air at Lu’s gigs, where dancers often look at each other in disbelief as they sing along to ravey-remixes of 'guilty' pleasures like Britney Spears, ABBA, or Cher. Given the breadth of her musical knowledge and her chameleon-like ability to appease die-hard hip-hop and techno fans alike, with Lú, you can expect the extraordinary!
