Debut: Tini Gessler [First New York Headliner Show]

Tini Gessler is making her highly anticipated New York headline debut on the Roof of Superior Ingredients on September 15th, bringing her groovy blend of deep and tech-house to the stage. Sharing the stage with names like Max Styler, Dombresky, and Bastian Bux over the years, and now having her own headline show, marks a significant milestone in her growing career and promises to be a huge party for something special like this!

Born in Germany and raised in the sunny town of Sitges, Spain, Tini’s journey into the music world began in 2013. Her natural passion for DJing quickly propelled her from small local parties to a notable three-year residency at the famed Pacha Barcelona. Her strong stage presence and lethal USB have made her a favorite at iconic clubs such as Space and Pacha Ibiza.

As a resident for Spain’s most iconic party, elrow, Tini has established her status in the industry. Her performances have been nothing short of magnetic, sharing stages with international artists like Jamie Jones, Andrea Oliva, Joseph Capriati, and many more names. These collaborations have not only expanded her reach but have also enriched her sound, making her a staple in house music.

The year 2024 has already been busy for Tini, with significant plays at the Ocaso Festival in Costa Rica, Space Miami, and multiple gigs across Miami Music Week. She has also rinsed the stages of ANTS at Ushuaia and Hi Ibiza, blowing away audiences with her jumping sound. The second half of the year promises even more excitement, with performances lined up at Drumcode in Croatia and Medellin, Kappa Futur in Italy, ARC in Chicago, Future Rave with David Guetta at Hi Ibiza, and the CRSSD Festival, to name a few.

Aside from curating some of the most electric sets, Gessler also thrives in music production. Her first EP, "Going On," was a collaboration with Toni Varga, another elrow family member. Her projects include an EP with Tolstoi and Andsan on Safe Music and a much-anticipated solo EP on the underground label, 303 Lovers and KER. Her Toolroom release “Tidy Up” popped off at #1 on four different Beatport charts—round of applause, Ms. Gessler! Her unique sound combines house and techno with melodic elements, reflecting releases on labels including Desert Hearts, Kittball, Kaluki, Drumcode, Sola, and Circus Recordings.

Debut seems to be a common trend amongst this lineup! ALISHA, a name that’s buzzing in the UK house music scene, is making her New York debut and is loading up her USB with nothing but heat for this extravaganza! Having releases on Kaluki, Eastenderz, and Hot Creations and performing at Jamie Jones’ Paradise at Amnesia, Creamfields, and Glastonbury, plus headlining sets at London’s 93 Feet East, has been meteoric for this thriving artist.

Aside from our show on the Roof with ALISHA, her itinerary for this upcoming summer includes performances at ANTS at Ushuaia, elrow at Amnesia, and Eastenderz at Cova Santa, along with fall festivals like Creamfields. Go on, ALISHA!

Check out our recent interview with her to get more insight on her life and career here.

Joining the lineup will be New York’s DJ duo, The Fellas who performed with us earlier this year supporting Archie Hamilton, Gene Farris, Matthias Tanzmann, Joshwa, and Deeper Purpose. They reached the Top 100 on Beatport with their track “Milongo” and received support from Marco Carola and Atrak.

Finally, we have JØ who has played with Gray Area before and supported acts such as Mikey Lion, Solardo, AYYBO, and Joshwa. JØ has lived and breathed music from the get-go, with a particular soft spot for the electronic beat. Making the leap from dance floor regular to the one who controls the playlist, she now spins in cities like NYC, White Plains, Miami, London, and Costa Rica.

Tini Gessler’s New York debut is a major step in her career. Her journey from small local gigs to international stages exemplifies her growth as an artist. With her magnetic sound and a presence that commands, Tini continues to make waves in house music. You won’t want to miss this one!
