Newcomer Linnéa's energizing, au-courant sets span glossy trap, futuristic grime, R&B, neo-reggaeton and other hybrid styles that challenge the Euro step/touch hegemony. Born in Sweden and currently based in Berlin, Linnea Palmestål has staked out a spot behind decks at TRADE, the monthly party favoring the hi-tech club sounds of Staycore, Janus and the PAN label.

Active in the global push to bring greater diversity into dance music, Linnéa was one of the first official resident DJs for Yo! Sissy, Berlin's self-described festival for queer music, and is a member of Sister, the online community and mix series for women in dance music founded by Toxe. She now hosts Sister satellite events in Berlin, inviting female-identifying, non-binary and gender nonconforming DJs to play and providing free (C)DJ workshops and practice sessions, and was an early initiate of the creative collective and promoter OVERBORED, which launched in 2015 with an appearance from GHE20G0TH1K's Venus X.
