Unité.22 - YENKOV RESIDENCY: TWIENA, Etienne Nogues, YENKOV

Summer is far from over, and our resident Yenkov continues to heat things up with a lineup full of purring grooves, ’90s melodies and psychedelic atmospheres. The first Marseille date for TWIENA, the DJ and producer who keeps bombarding the scene with emotion and intensity through productions blending Techno, contemporary Trance and acid textures. A multifaceted artist straight from Amsterdam, she has long cultivated a sharp and controlled aesthetic, already present on the USB sticks of your favorite DJs. We know all about Yenkov’s love of ethereal melodies and chopped-up vocals that resonate in rhythm to better capture the essence of the dancefloor, and so Etienne Nogues naturally joins this lineup with his explosive genre fusion. As funky as it is trancy, the Rennes-based producer returns to Marseille to further flesh out this lineup, which promises to gallop as quickly as the days grow shorter in September. Another masterclass date for the godmother of Animals Industry—not to be missed. —————— TWIENA Based in the heart of Amsterdam, TWIENA is redefining electronic music and club culture through a perspective shaped by her experience within the Vietnamese diaspora. Drawing on her heritage while incorporating diverse global influences, she has developed a style that balances control and instinct, guided more by intuition than convention. Rooted in tactile, evolving club music, her sound is raw, innovative and dynamic, enriched by rhythmic textures and powerful low-end energy. Exploring the broad spectrum of techno, she makes her sets unpredictable, incorporating international club influences, polyrhythms, deep basslines blended with Latin elements, tribal textures and electronic rhythms made for dancing. A key figure on Amsterdam’s club scene, TWIENA was a resident DJ at the queer club RAUM, where she made her mark with rhythmic yet playful techno sets. Her performances across Europe—from RAUM and Panorama Bar to Bassiani, Blitz and festivals such as Lowlands, DGTL and Awakenings Upclose—reflect her openness to the world while shaping her understanding of sound. Alongside her live performances, TWIENA explores her sonic signature through her biweekly show on Echobox, “XXX TWIENA,” delving into the rhythms, textures and atmospheres that define her music. The show is gradually shaping a coherent and versatile sonic identity, faithful to her vision; it balances precision and chaos while highlighting the depth, cultural perspective and energy she brings to every dancefloor. As a producer, TWIENA continues to explore varied soundscapes inspired by her Vietnamese roots, global influences and extensive experience in the club world. Her latest tracks are designed for the energy of the night’s peak moments while remaining nuanced, playful and flexible; they go beyond simple melodic hooks to resonate with the dancefloor’s real needs. With her upcoming releases, she is preparing to expand her artistic vision even further, continually blending heritage, innovation and pleasure at the heart of her music.
