ABOUT ANDROGENIUS (they/them x 2)

Androgenius are Coren (@corenmusic) and LEXX (@a_lexx_a_), aka Bristol’s softest DJ collective, celebrating the N in FLINTA. These two are gender benders and they’re also genre benders: expect all flavours of sxy, soulful and euphoric house, dutty bass and breakbeat, nu-disco, and afro and latinx sounds. Get ready for a b2b (boifriend 2 boifriend) set full of a$$ shaking, high kicks, and they/them mayhem behind the decks. Coren and LEXX also share a love for sober life, embodiment and rest, and they’ll take us from dancing ourselves silly into dancing ourselves softly. These two can do both. Very non-binary. Very Androgenius.

ABOUT LEXX (they/them)

LEXX (a_lexx_a_) whips the finest cross-genre music into sets that sweat and reset. Their dance floor is a sxy somatics-infused space where gender gets bent and all beings are held in love. A space where you can dance freely to meet your struggle and release it all. LEXX is the creator and DJ daddy of Soft Butch, a somatics-infused night celebrating butchness, for all women, NB and Trans people to dance freely together. The event is a repeat sell-out, gathering crowds of over 500 people on the regs. You can find LEXX on the decks in the UK and beyond, in clubs, cafés and bars, at festivals, and in sober dance spaces. Expect the finest house of all flavours, afrobeat and amapiano, reggaeton and latinx tracks, drum n bass, and much more.
