Arude

Ukrainian-born DJ and producer Arude is based in Warsaw — and his sound carries both: Eastern European grit and the precision of a city that takes its clubs seriously. Since his 2017 debut on Berlin's Stetoyoke, he has released on Armada, Radikon, Renaissance and Moodyverse, steadily moving toward a sound that's entirely his own. Groovy but cold, with vocal textures layered underneath, his music doesn't ask for your attention, it takes it. His sets have moved across continents and scenes. In Poland: Audioriver Festival alongside Richie Hawtin, Dixon and Stephan Bodzin; Wisłoujście in Gdańsk on a bill with Modeselektor and Bambounou; regular nights at Smolna and Luzztro in Warsaw. Across Europe: headlining for Moodyverse at Module in Copenhagen, Aldea Club in Bratislava, KitKatClub and KaterBlau in Berlin, Kastel in Istanbul. Further out: Vagalume Beach Club in Tulum, Papagayo Beach Club in Tenerife, and a tour across India in 2025. Different rooms, different latitudes — the same intention every time. Supported by Tale Of Us, Chris Lake, Mind Against, Agents Of Time, David Guetta, Kevin de Vries, HOSH and Innellea. Arude filters life through music, turning emotions and moments into something real, honest and alive.
