BLVSH Takeover | aychekai

BLVSH Collective is back at the Refuge Worldwide studio for its 4th showcase, full of surprises. It will feature Ukrainian artists, for DJ sets and also a special interview about the current situation in the country and the Ukrainian music scene.

aychekai is a Canadian-Ukrainian DJ, designer, and Deutschland import, originally from Toronto. Currently based in Berlin, she made her club debut in July 2022 and has since become a regular at ‘Vechornytsi,’ a Ukrainian fundraising event based in Berlin. aychekai has played at Repeat Bar, Fitzroy, Marie Antoinette, Bulbul Berlin, and more. After years of casual playlist curation for friends, she first got behind the decks in 2017 and hasn’t looked back since. To aychekai, every set is a journey. She carries listeners through a soundscape that fuses her Ukrainian heritage with dark and upbeat tempos. Her sets bring together elements from techno, ghetto house, acid, bass, and traditional Ukrainian folk music–with a sprinkle of Euro-pop.
