On May 3rd, the electrifying beats of Deborah DeLuca will take center stage at Zorlu PSM as part of the PSMLoves2Dance event series. Brace yourself for a night of pulsating rhythms and infectious energy as this renowned DJ and producer graces the stage, promising an unforgettable experience for dance music enthusiasts.

No accurate depiction of electronic music culture would be complete without special mention of Deborah De Luca. Widely acknowledged as one of the most prominent flag-bearers for Techno globally and a regular fixture inside the world’s most distinguished DJ booths, Deborah has the unique ability to transfix crowds with her electrically charged, technically nuanced sets, fusing hard techno with minimal grooves and melodic soundscapes to absorbing effect. A pioneer in the use of social networks as a promotional tool, whilst somehow managing to retain a strong sense of discretion in her private life, Deborah is unrivalled in her determination and passion, earning every part of her current status as one of the most exciting talents to emerge from the international Techno scene over the past decade.

Born under the shade of the infamous Vele di Scampia – one of the toughest districts in Naples – the now-globally recognised DJ, producer and label head came from humble beginnings, forging her path to international success against unlikely odds. However this was to become her making. “You shouldn’t let anybody tell you what you can or can’t become”, she expounded in a rare interview, referencing her early livelihood as a nightclub dancer. “It’s true, in recent years I have gained popularity, but I am very grateful for the long journey it’s taken”. More than anything else, Deborah’s roots and her unwavering ethic are an integral part of the flourishing artist we see before us today.

Deborah spent the formative years of her musical career in Northern Italy, following a brief stint at fashion school in Modena. Cutting her teeth on the European club circuit, where she quickly realised music was her true calling, Deborah’s hard work and relentless determination eventually began to pay off and in 2013 she launched her very own imprint Sola_mente Records. Created as a platform by which to release her own music, free from creative pressure and external constraints, the label went from strength to strength and in November 2018, Deborah marked a decade-long career in the industry with the critically acclaimed release of her debut album ‘Ten’. A huge milestone for the Italian producer, ‘Ten’ represented an important rite of passage and a body of work that she would cherish indefinitely.

Dubbed by many ‘The Queen of Naples’, it’s behind the dj console where Deborah still feels most at home, travelling from continent to continent each week playing at some of the world’s most prestigious events. Delivering high-energy performances at huge international festivals and intimate nightclubs to performing breath-taking live shows broadcast to millions worldwide, there really aren’t many situations to which she can’t turn her deft hand. Passionate and industrious, charismatic yet introverted, Deborah De Luca has already left an indelible mark on the music industry and she’s only just getting started.

Palaye Royale will rock the Turkcell Stage on June 10th!

Palaye Royale’s adrenaline fueled, rock n’ roll circus is leading a generation in togetherness through truth, honesty, and change. First landing in Los Angeles as teenagers, Las Vegas-bred brothers Remington Leith (vocals), Sebastian Danzig (guitar), and Emerson Barrett (drums), worked their way up through the ruthless L.A. rock scene, soon finding themselves playing arenas with the likes of Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, and Stone Sour. They draw as much inspiration from cinema and philosophy as they do from their musical muses, building a story with libertine reverence for Alan Watts and debauchery-fueled nights at the Chateau Marmont, for Johnny Thunders and The Stooges.

The trio’s fourth full-length “Fever Dream” emerged from a much-needed break in the chaos, with the three classically trained musicians returning to their roots and composing most of the album on piano. Equal parts ecstatic head rush and in-depth meditation on the state of the human psyche, the result is Palaye Royale’s boldest and most visionary body of work to date. For Palaye Royale, returning to the live stage is among the most thrilling rewards to be gained from the release of “Fever Dream.” As their moniker itself evokes (Palaye Royale is the name of the Toronto dancehall where their grandparents met in the ‘50s), the brotherly trio is eager to connect themselves and this generation to the spirit of the past but reinvigorated for today with eclecticism and fierce individuality. Their tours are like a traveling circus. Clad in scarves, hats, paisley shirts, and makeup, as the Soldiers of the Royal Council attest, it’s the Palaye Royale lifestyle. And you are invited to the celebration on June 10!

Archive are not a band but a Collective.

Archive was formed by Londoners Darius Keeler and Danny Griffiths in 1994 and began as an electronica project. They released a few singles on their own Swam label and broke up in 1996 only to be reformed with new personnel a year later to record their first official album entitled "Londinium" – a purely trip-hop product. After a brief split-up once again, Keeler and Griffiths started collaborating with yet another couple of musicians and in 1999, released "Take My Head" - this time a pop album. In 2002, with a different set of members, they finally decided to dip their toes in progressive music and gave us "You All Look the Same to Me".

From the very first notes of "You All Look the Same to Me", it is evident that Archive hold their Pink Floyd collections in high esteem. It features some well-orchestrated epics that merit its time defying cult following.

Archive will take the audience on a journey through time, genres, feeling and emotions on June 12.
