About Red Rooms & AgainstMe
Red Rooms
Dominik Hisslinger alias Red Rooms started producing music and DJing back in 2003. On his almost 20- year-long musical journey he played and produced music from various electronic genres which influence his sound to the present day. In 2017 Red Rooms came to life inspired by the tracks of artists such as Rodhad, Exium, Dasha Rush, Truncate, TWR72 just to name a few. It’s the minimalistic, hypnotic sound combined with energetic and driving grooves that define his sound.
His first vinyl called “Sunbeams” was released on Planet Rhythm in April 2022 supported by Rene Wise, MARRØN, Nihad Tule, Insolate, Lea Occhi, Justine Perry, Kaiser, Claudio PRC, Efdemin, Richie Hawtin, Cassegrain, Bas Mooy, DVS1, Introversion, JANEIN, Dimi Angelis, Tommy Four Seven, Emmanuel and many more. His second physical release came out on Planet Rhythm in September 2022 receiving support from artists such as Rodhad, Setaoc Mass, Ellen Allien, Introversion, Temudo, Amotik, Kwartz, Dimi Angelis, Casual Treatment and many more. With several releases under his belt and more to come in 2023 Red Rooms is one to watch.
Kostas aka AgainstMe is a greek Berlin-based DJ, Producer & co-founder of SOCIETY 3000, and core member of USM Recordings. In 2016, at the age of 17 years old, Kostas had already started his career under a different alias in a wider range of electronic music. His music had been released on different labels around the world, but as he was young, he was still discovering himself and what style of music expresses him the most.
The project “AgainstMe” came to life a year later after his first Rave/Techno parties on his home island Lesbos, Greece and It was inspired by the continuous struggle of human beings to align with their inner voice. For him at that point, techno sound and “ideology” had shown up as something completely new, uniting and revolutionary which was going against everything that he had experienced before. The hypnotic melodies and the heavy drum patterns along with the ritualistic vibe of these parties made him immediately fall in love with everything around this sound and what it stands for.
Since then, his music got released on different record labels around the world and during 2021, he managed to have three physical releases. Some of the most important releases during the last years were, his first-ever record “Inequalities” released on Liquid Drops, his album “Synopsis” on Subsist Records, and “Melting Bodies” on Mekanika Recordings. He has already enjoyed support from online platforms like 6am, Hate, Monument, Electronic Groove & Beater, and artists like Umwelt, Sev Dah, Rodhad, Kangding Ray, K-Hand, Mikael Delta, Richie Hawtin, and Marco Bailey to name a few. On top of that, he has collaborated with the talented Moritz Simon Geist for his project “Raving Alone”.
