On this year’s Smoqua Queer-UP! Party you will have the opportunity to enjoy the sounds of Warrego Valles. Eclectic, unpredictable and genre indefinable sets by Warrego Valles are pushing the boundaries of club music.
This electronic project of producer and DJ Nina Hudej and musician and DJ Nina Kodrič (aka NinaBelle) is intensively exploring by-passes of club and experimental electronic music entering into more contemporary club electronics styles such as bass, footwork and grime.

They regularly perform in various venues in Slovenia and abroad as DJs or as an audio-visual live show act. They mostly include rich electronic production of women, trans and non-binary artists as they firmly believe that diversity and inclusiveness are necessary conditions for the development of any club culture.
