about

«My focus on heavy sub-frequencies and introspective textures is no accident. It’s rooted in how I first experienced the impact and liberating potential of the dance floor.» — lua jungck

In times marked by political division and a steady push toward the private sphere, lua jungck’s debut EP on -ous, «chase», stands as a reminder of something fundamentally collective: the dance floor as a space of shared experience, connection and expression. At its purest, it has always been a site of gathering, of (queer) visibility, and collective presence. In a time where fragmentation and exclusion are often reinforced, and cemented through algorithms, the dance floor offers something increasingly rare: a shared moment that can’t be replicated alone. A place where differences coexist in motion. As lua recalls: «I vividly remember my first nights immersed in Zurich’s club culture, my first raves, and I still treasure the feeling of freedom those nights left me with.» This feeling remains at the core of «chase». Not as nostalgia, but as an active force: a commitment to these spaces’ power to shape identity and enable a sense for the other.
Rooted in dubstep, bass music, and rave traditions, the EP is built on the tension between weight and openness. Heavy sub-bass and intricate, syncopated rhythms carve out a physical intensity, while expressive textures and tonal debris open moments of introspection. At the same time, elastic and at times majestic melodies bring lightness and euphoria to the productions. The interplay between half-time bass structures and more driving, electro-influenced patterns reflects this duality: grounded yet searching, intense yet open. There’s a deliberate focus on space in lua’s productions: space for sub frequencies and bold rhythms to hit with full force, but also space for people to exist within the music, to move through it together. This EP is shaped as much by technical precision as by memory, by those first encounters with club culture, where the music itself blurred into something bigger: a feeling of freedom. Ultimately, it’s an offering to the dance floor as a site of encounter, where community is not just imagined, but felt in real time.

BIO
lua jungck is an electronic musician, sound artist, producer, and DJ whose work oscillates between club-focused energy and experimental exploration. Her music is a visceral blend of digitally processed field recordings, electronic beats, and tonal debris. For the dance floor, she merges heavy bass, fragmented textures, and abstract synthesis, fusing chaos with raw club energy. Her sound moves fluidly between deconstruction and reconstructing, pushing the boundaries of contemporary electronic music.
In 2024, she released her debut EP girlfluxx. Her work has been presented at notable events including Ars Electronica (AT), Niansa (SLO), Backslash, and Sonic Matter Festival (CH), and she regularly tours across Europe and overseas. She is a member of the trio gridslop with Arthur Hnatek and Jules Martinet, and of OMNIVORE with Silvan Jeger and Vera Baumann, whose album yber hybris was released in January 2026. She has also composed and produced original music for film and theatre productions.
 Beyond her artistic practice, Lua Jungck works as a mixing and mastering engineer and online educator. She founded the concert series livelovelava and is an organizing board member of WIM Zurich (Workshop for Improvised Music).
