Kristin Velvet

In 2025, Kristin Velvet continues to solidify her position as one of the most dynamic and influential figures in the global house music scene. Based between two iconic music hubs, Berlin and Ibiza, the past year has seen her release stellar EPs for Damian Lazarus‘s Crosstown Rebels as well as chart-topping tracks on Arms & Legs, the label she co-manages alongside Daniel Steinberg. All this comes on top of a decade of big tunes with collaborations with house legends Fred P and Felix Da Housecat (‘Swing Special’ set to be featured in Episode 9 of Lena Dunham‘s new Netflix series Too Much).

With influences rooted in 90s Chicago and Detroit house and golden-era hip-hop, Velvet’s sound channels all those inspirations while remaining steadfastly forward-thinking. Her chart-topping tracks are consistently garnering support from industry heavyweights such as Jimi Jules and Dixon at Awakening 2025, Seth Troxler at Circoloco Thailand and Koko London 2025, Jamie Jones at Circoloco and Amnesia Closings 2024, Acid Pauli at Time Warp 2025, Marco Carola at ADE 2024, Luuk Van Dijk at ADE 2024, and countless more.

Kristin Velvet‘s impact extends far beyond the studio. She’s graced the stages of renowned venues worldwide, including Watergate Berlin, where she held down a residency for seven years, Amnesia Ibiza, Hï Ibiza, XOYO London, Mint Warehouse Leeds, D-Edge São Paulo, Hive Zurich, Culture Box Copenhagen, Revolver Upstairs Melbourne, and The Edition Los Angeles. She’s also made a name for herself on the festival circuit, drawing in audiences at Lollapalooza, Fusion Festival, Docklands Festival, Snowbombing, and Exit Festival, just to name a few.

Kristin Velvet is not just a DJ; she‘s a curator of unforgettable experiences, a purveyor of infectious energy, and a beacon of creativity in the ever-evolving landscape of electronic music.
