Lotra remains a mystery in all but her DJ abilities, which are plain to see. Her tune choice is immaculate too… DJ Vence isn’t as shrouded in anonymity, however. What started with drumming shampoo bottles using his toothbrush as a kid has evolved into dropping warm and adventurous grooves as a DJ. Vence is on a constant expedition to dig up new vibrations, revealing his devotion to spark dancefloor euphoria. As co-founder of VG+, he is rapidly gaining traction across Asia while connecting music lovers with the art of vinyl DJing. 

Growing up in The Hague on the coast of the Netherlands, Vence was exploring dancefloors and collecting music as a youngling well before he took up DJing. Casually easing into mixing in his early 20s. In 2017, he moved to North Africa, where he quickly became part of the vibrant Tunisian music scene, playing for many clubs and events, such as Wax Bar, Yuka, and Habibi, as well as the influential Downtown Vibes collective and the mesmerising Tunisian Woodstock Festival. 

Halfway through 2021, Vence moved to Hong Kong. Quickly becoming a regular performer in Hong Kong clubs like OMA, Acadana, and the leading underground institution, 宀 club. In the latter, his sound has been able to mature and evolve, sharing the stage with the likes of Jason Kendig, Rey Colino, and Quest. In September 2023, Vence started VG+ together with Sunsiaré. A vinyl-centric club night, online record store, community, media channel, and more with a fresh approach for showcasing everlasting club music.
