Emotion, Edge & Energy
Yulia Niko is a Berlin-based DJ, producer, and sonic visionary shaping underground electronic music with raw emotion and hypnotic minimal house. Known for her boundary-breaking creativity and club energy, Yulia Niko commands dance floors worldwide with an unmistakable sound.
Global Minimalist Making Waves
From Ibiza to Cape Town, she has released on Crosstown Rebels and Watergate, making her one of the most compelling forces in underground music. Her sets deliver emotional resonance and fierce energy that continue to inspire global audiences.
TWINSOUL – A Debut Album with Depth
In 2024, she unveiled her debut album TWINSOUL, recorded fully analog. It is a deeply personal tribute to love, loss, and self-expression. With raw emotion and timeless production, the album reflects her artistic journey and heartfelt storytelling.
Artistic Identity and Sound
As the sole artist behind Body Language Vol. 26 for Get Physical Music, she brings her full artistic identity to 11 powerful tracks, each distilling her instinct, groove, and signature edge to ignite the dance floor. Her journey began at 11, when a Bora Bora DVD sparked her fascination with club culture; by 16, she was collecting vinyl records and dreaming of being behind the decks.
At 21, she moved to New York to study production, where passion and belief shaped her path, leading her to perform at some of the world’s most respected festivals, guided always by instinct, energy, and love for music. She defines her sound as minimal with a twist – hypnotic, groovy, and uplifting – rooted in her obsession with edgy vocals and raw emotion that make every track unforgettable.
With TWINSOUL, her analog-driven debut album and a tribute to her late father, she explored emotional depth through warm production and original vocals, creating music that is raw, real, and timeless – not just a collection of tracks, but a heartfelt story.
Just Just – Reworking a Classic
Her rework of Rework’s 2002 track Just Just blends dark, melodic tones with an unexpected drop. It transforms a minimal underground favorite into a fresh, powerful club anthem, honoring the past while shaping the future.
11 Dancefloor-Ready Tracks
Her compilation is crafted for the dance floor, with 11 strong tracks tested and refined during live sets. Each track delivers uplifting groove and energy, perfect for festivals, beach parties, or listening at home.
Africa and Beyond
She has already performed in Cape Town, calling it one of her best experiences. The energy, crowd connection, and special moments inspired her. With dreams of returning for festivals like Afrikaburn, she sees Africa as a place of rhythm, nature, and inspiration.
“Minimal isn’t about doing less—it’s about doing just enough to take people on a hypnotic journey.” – DJ Yulia Niko
