Jen Symmetry bio:
For over a decade, Jen Symmetry’s deep love for bass-driven music has fueled electrifying performances at clubs, festivals, and underground parties across the US. Known for her high-energy, razor-sharp sets, Jen has landed prime timeslots alongside heavyweights like Sam Binga, Paradox, Aphrodite, and Caracal Project.
While she first made a name for herself behind the decks, her original productions are making waves too. From melodic jungle to breaks and dubstep, her music has found a home on Rolled Up, Phreak Recordings, The Global DNB Collective, and Bhump—with more releases on the horizon.
You may have seen her throw down at major events like Jungle Bells Atlanta, Respect LA, Driven AM NYC, The Black Box Denver, First Ave, Spin San Diego, Infrasound Festival, Even Furthur, The Great Beyond Festival, Driftmore, and Symmetry Fest. Or maybe you’ve caught her on Twitch—where she was nominated for Best Twitch Newcomer in the 2021 Twitch Breakbeat Awards and took the title in the 916 Junglist DJ battle, broadcast live. She also began her residency with Bassdrive radio in 2025.
As a key member of Mechanix Minneapolis, Jen helps curate cutting-edge, inclusive bass nights, and she proudly represents the prestigious Dnb Girls collective. Whether she's layering three-deck drum and bass, jungle, halftime, or bass-driven beats, Jen crafts immersive sets that command the dancefloor and keep the energy high.

Britta Bader
Known for her special curated musicality in her sets, Britta Bader smashes all genre
boundaries and seamlessly blends through a variety of house, techno and breaks in her
sets. Her passion for electronic music is very strong, and has been since she was a
teen. She immediately fell in love with dance music in the late 90s/early 2000’s and
learned how to truly listen to the music how it’s supposed to be heard, and get taken
on a journey to a special place on the dance floor.
Born and raised in Minneapolis, she was lucky to have been immersed in the rave
culture at an early age and has witnessed countless sets that opened her mind to a
world of peace, love, unity and respect and most of all the music that touches the
mind, body and soul.
Her knowledge about this music that we all love is so vast. She knows the history, the
present, and she knows where it’s going.
After spending countless hours at the record store picking out promos, and grinding
down the rabbit hole digging for the gems that nobody has heard yet, 2012 was the
year she decided get over her sense of stage fright and begin DJing and masterfully
curate sets with all of the music that she collected.
Close your eyes, open your ears.
Enjoy the ride and feel the vibes
