FEATURED DJs: Matriarch (FKA Dana Kazuko) is a DJ and producer who approaches the decks as a dancer, locked into the rhythm, reading the room, and driving the floor forward with intention. Her sets are high-energy, body-first, and built to keep people moving, playing house with hypnotic grooves and moments that hit when you need them most. As founder and resident DJ of Gateway she’s not just playing the party, she’s building the space it happens in. Her work lives at the intersection of sound, movement, and queer nightlife, where the dancefloor becomes a place of connection and liberation. With roots in dance and fire spinning, her mixing is physical and immersive. For her, the dancefloor is more than a party, it’s a home, a protest, and a place where every body can move freely in their truth.
Jack Trash (JT to his mates) is an award-winning producer and DJ known for his extraordinary mixing skills, three-deck sets, and eclectic blend of house and techno. Named Best Club DJ in the Twin Cities by *City Pages* in 2003, he has released acclaimed tracks including “Trash Talkin’,” “Soul Sensation,” and “Livin’ & Lovin’.” Through aphrodisio events, he has performed alongside legendary DJs such as Sasha, Paul Oakenfold, Richie Hawtin, Carl Cox, Deep Dish, and Mark Farina.
