Resident DJ

Andrés Garcil

Hailing from the capital of Colombia, Andres Garcil was immersed at an early age into the world of electronic music. Now based in Brooklyn, and at only 21, he's proven that what he lacks in years, he makes up for with his masterful poise when navigating the decks for his ever-growing, high-bpm desiring crowds, stealing the show at several of our events already. His signature style is captivating, blending hard techno, hard dance, and industrial sounds. With big plans already underway in the Big Apple, playing closing out already some of Agape's biggest shows, and many national plays yet to be announced, Andres is set to become one of the leading forces in Brooklyn's underground scene and beyond.

@nimal

@nimal, (pronounced 'animal'), is an American trance music producer making noise in New York's underground techno scene. Inspired by industrial EBM and 80's new wave as well as drawing influence from his background in the genre of gothic synthwave, his retro production style puts a unique spin on the trance genre and gives his work an instantly recognizable blend of nostalgia, aggression, and emotional introspection. As a resident artist for the techno event platform, Ägapē, @nimal has performed numerous supporting sets for DJs such as Somewhen, Rouge, VCL, and Afem Syko. He continues to captivate ravers with his candid and engaging presence behind the decks.

Resident DJ

Diossa

DIOSSA is a Colombian-born, New York City–based techno DJ and producer operating at the intersection of groove, hypnosis, and velocity. As a new resident of Agape, she represents the next wave of artists shaping the city's underground with discipline, clarity of vision, and uncompromising energy. Her sound is fast, driving, and immersive, built on hypnotic loops, layered percussion, and textured atmospheres that balance physical impact with mental focus. DIOSSA constructs her sets as continuous journeys, locking dance floors into a trance state while maintaining relentless forward motion. With roots in Colombia's underground and a growing international presence, she has performed at Baum Festival, Hör Berlin, ADE, Elements Music & Arts Festival, and clubs across the US, Europe, and South America. She has shared lineups with Vladimir Dubyshkin, Chlär, Anetha, and Lacchesi, while her Hör Berlin set has surpassed 93,000 streams. As a producer, DIOSSA is building a distinct sonic identity. Her debut EP Oberon on Infrablack Records reached the Top 20 on Beatport's Hypnotic Techno chart, followed by releases on Therefore Records. She now launches Obsidia Records, a platform dedicated to bold, rhythm-driven techno rooted in introspection and impact.

Saint Velez

Resident DJ

Saint Velez

Saint Velez has built this record the same way he built his name: by staying inside the rooms that matter rather than chasing the ones that are easier to reach. Over the better part of a decade, the Brooklyn-born producer developed a sound in the warehouses of Bushwick and Bed Stuy that is raw, physically driven, and shaped entirely by those spaces. Industrial textures, cinematic weight, a groove that works on you before you consciously register it. 'Truth Be Told' is the full articulation of where that path leads. As founder of Illegal Rhythm and a resident of the Agape Music collective, Saint Velez occupies a position in American techno that very few artists reach by staying underground rather than leaving it. The co-signs reflect that. Richie Hawtin opened his 2025 Boiler Room set with a Saint Velez track. Sara Landry brought him on as direct support three separate times. He held the room for I Hate Models at Knockdown Center. Live, Saint Velez brings the same seriousness. Multiple appearances at Basement alongside the likes of Francois X and LOLSNAKE, plus sets at H0L0, Lot Radio, Signal, and Avant Gardner have established him as someone whose presence behind the decks carries genuine authority. The rooms he plays remember him.

Founder / DJ

Junkfile

Junkfile moved to NYC five years ago, where he launched his career as a DJ, producer, and promoter. He is the founder of Agape and Agape Records, playing a key role in shaping the city's current techno landscape. He has performed at some of NYC's most respected venues, including H0L0, Elsewhere, Bossa Nova Civic Club, and 99 Scott, building a reputation for driving, groove-focused sets. Sharing stages with artists like Grace Dahl, SHDW, Vladimir Dubyshkin, Hadone, and others, Junkfile continues to establish himself as a consistent presence in the scene. In early 2026, he released on BCCO, marking a strong step forward in his production career. Alongside previous releases on So-Tight Records and ongoing output through his own Brooklyn-based label, his sound continues to evolve with a clear focus on high-energy, forward-leaning techno.
