<>< FISH MARKET – 16 YEARS of MEAT w/ LEA OCCHI

Headliner Info:
Léa Occhi is a French DJ based in Berlin, co-founder and resident of the parisian queer collective Spectrum Waves.

Where words fail, music speaks. Reserved and solitary, Léa found refuge in music since her childhood. Jazz, soul music or French chansons, family moments usually came and still come hand in hand with music and sharing the joint, somewhat meditative listening experience.

An ardent curiosity for Electronic Music started rising in her highschool days, pushing her towards broadening the musical horizon and consequently DJing in parallel to her fashion and design studies. After a few years of exploring parties in Germany and Paris, she co-founded Spectrum Waves in 2017 – a parisian LGBTQ+ collective with tolerance, diversity, freedom, parity and respect at its core. The collective hosts events at Station Gare des Mines, a rehabilitated industrial wasteland and former railway station, to provide a safer space for minority communities, where freedom of expression is lived in all thinkable forms. Through its lineups and podcasts channel, Spectrum highlights emerging French and international DJs and producers.

Léa is also at the forefront of promoting women in the Parisian electronic scene. Further commitments go as far as donating parts of the Spectrum earnings to different associations close to her heart such as aid to migrants and refugees, LGBTQIA+ associations or the fight against HIV. Through her collective, she has managed to create a perfect balance between her own desires, ambitions and her fundamental values. Name the unnameable, communicate the unknowable.

Spectrum Waves also vastly helped shaping Léa’s musical comprehension and appreciation of Techno as an outlet, which is able to create the same meditative listening experience and togetherness she feels when listening to music with her family. Her sets stand out for their sharp selection and absolute coherence. A mental, groovy Techno fueled by organic, tribal elements – widely reverberating in its uniqueness and class. The creation of an intimate atmosphere and cohesion in each of her sets makes them stand out, equally so does the implementation of feelings and emotions while at the same time following a rather minimalistic approach in the music itself.

A real digger at heart, she has a very wide range of styles and tempos, from techno to micro house, deep, ambient or house/funk – she knows how to adapt and read energies, giving what’s needed at the right moment.

Pornceptual, Eerste Cie, Vault Sessions or Meat free… Playing for collectives that match her values and commitments is crucial. She performs in renowned European clubs and festivals such as Berghain, Tresor Berlin, De School, BRET Amsterdam, Fold London, Le Sucre Lyon, ∄ Kyiv, Awakenings, Fusion Festival to name a few, but also in Asia.
