About the Berlin Techno DJ Stella Bossi

Stella Bossi stands at the forefront of techno’s new wave, currently ranked No. 1 DJ in Germany (DJaneTop Germany 2025) and No. 17 on the worldwide Top-DJane-List 2025, yet she insists her mission isn’t to claim the title of “best DJ in the world,” but to have fun and provoke the male-dominated techno scene.
Hailing from Berlin’s underground, she fuses relentless, hard-hitting beats with dark humor, irony, and unbridled rave spirit—whether she’s commanding the decks at major festivals from Rome to Frankfurt (SUPERAURORA Fest) or sparking viral mayhem in front of Kater Blau (TUSH Magazine).
As the founder of TBMF (The Beat Must Fuck), Stella’s fan-voting model democratizes A&R, while her signature dark sunglasses and unapologetic energy redefine what a techno act can be. She’s not here to play the game—she’s reinventing it.
From the bouncy track “Say What You Want” to the rave weapon “3 Days Awake” on Filth on Acid, Stella keeps stretching techno’s edges on and off the dancefloor.
Stream her EP “All You Can Eat” (out 23 May 2025), or play “Say What You Want” (released April 2025). For dates, see upcoming shows at leading techno clubs and festivals worldwide.
Join her world, follow the noise, and don’t forget your sunglasses.
