Happy New Tears (DJ)

She/her
Saturday 13 May — Garage Noord

By creating melancholic atmospheres, Happy New Tears invites dancers to dissolve into her rich sonic world. She is a Zambian-Dutch DJ and producer based in Berlin. Her sounds are a hybrid mixture of atmospheric melodies and energetic beats, using fragments of R&B, bass, ambient and trance. Happy New Tears aims to find the transition between euphoria and rage, where moments of celebration turn into sadness. Doing so, the selector creates uncanny voids to explore empowerment at the intersection between these two worlds.

Happy New Tears started producing with the support of Berlin Community Radio and has joined forces with No Shade for a club night series and DJ training program to support non-binary and trans people based in Berlin. She also helps CTM Festival with curating a playlist for spatial installations. Happy New Tears played in venues such as Panorama Bar, Tresor, OHM, Garage Noord, La Station Gare des Mines. She shared line-ups with artists such as Objekt, Mechatok, LSDXOXO, Croatian Amor, Juliana Huxtable, LYZZA, De Schuurman and Roly Porter.

The Club Night is included in the FIBER Festival 2023 Passe-partout. Separate Club Night Tickets will go on sale later via Garage Noord.
