Sarah Farina

Berlin-based DJ Sarah Farina sprinkles positivity over the darkest bass. She’s innovative, skilful, and she’s the smiling antithesis of genre cliques and sour scene elitists. Her genre-rejecting style, that she has named ‘rainbowbass’, is equally impressive to industry insiders and those who just want to dance.

Farina’s sets are jammed with seamlessly blended bass-heavy footwork and futuristic beats, with fearless forays through R&B and UK Funky.

Led by the early releases of Aphex Twin, Timbaland and Boards of Canada into the dark clubs of Berlin, Farina was a driver behind the 2010 formation of Through My Speakers. This event production collective plays an important role in getting underground producers and DJ’s above the ground and onto the decks of progressive club nights and the playlists of bass fans across Europe and beyond.

This performance is presented in the framework of SHAPE (Sound, Heterogeneous Art and Performance in Europe).
