Queertronica PodcastQueer House Odyssey Part 3 @Voices4BerlinVery thrilled to share the last part of my House Odyssey Trilogy showcasing the past, the present and the future of House Music. This set, played for the Voices4Berlin for the Trans Day of Visibility 2024 starts off with a 90s house banger enriched and thickened with latin rhythms, honouring the latina trans queens of the 90s and today, finishing with a travel back in time to highlight the early 80s latin influence in House Music. Please have a ton of fun with this set.2024-05-111h 18
Queertronica PodcastOriental Coentenservice @Salon QueertroniqueAt the last TRANSTRONICA Salon Queertronique, I wanted to combine oriental rhythms and sounds and merge them together with electronic beats. In this set, you can hear the result out of this beautiful fusion of belly dance beats, egyptian Mahraganat, as well as turkish Sezen Aksu mixed together with vogue beats into a world trip through sound.2024-03-191h 21

Queertronica PodcastTRANSTRONICA 2023: House Odyssey Part 2After a long time, I decided to continue to post my sets again. This one is a very special one, because it is partly the set I played at the TRANSTRONICA festival 2023, although without the sickening vocals of Hausvrau. It is a trip through the 90s, a wild ride through House, Breakbeat and 90s Rave.2023-11-051h 23
Queertronica PodcastQueer House Odyssey Part 2@Salon Queertronique"A la recherche du T perdu" was the theme of last Salon Queertronique, a party series dedicated to trans visibility as well as to queer club culture in general. The second part of my House Odyssey is a trip down memory lane, where I found myself inside the 90s, the golden era of House music. The 90s not only had an immediately recognisable beat structure, they were highlighting black and brown voices which took the queer audience to church. After the decriminalisation of homosexuality, queerdom found its place inside club music, a soundtrack sung by trans women and effeminate gay...2022-12-231h 17
Queertronica PodcastQueer House Odyssey Part 1@PARKSSo I decided to rework the second part of my set and to offer you a trilogy of House with three of my performances in 2022. Initially, this was the set, I played for the Queer Bcademy @PARKS Hamburg. In this first part, the focus is on early House music, mainly from the late 80s. This era has a very special feel to it, it is the time, electronic dance music evolved to this certain club sound between Wave, Pop, House, Acid and what will later be known as Techno. Enjoy!2022-09-111h 17
Queertronica PodcastOriental Voguing Inferno @Vogelball 2022This is my set from the Vogelball 2022! It was my very first time playing there and my very first time, the crowd was going absolutely crazy from the first second of it! Be prepared to enjoy a set through fierce voguing beats, house excellence, electronic abstraction and oriental rhythms all woven into a melodic tale.

Queertronica PodcastTRANSTRONICA Day 3: Celeste @KampnagelThe TRANSTRONICA Festival was the first ever electronic music festival with an all trans* lineup. As the curator and founder, I set myself on the last evening, called "Celeste". It is about time to summarise my set filled with what I would call is 100% Saeleen Bouvar: sickening beats, oriental influences, Acid sounds and melodies to die for.
It is a non stop dance mix, so please have fun with it.2022-06-191h 12
Queertronica PodcastFemme Future Set @ Feminist Futures SalonLet´s celebrate the end of 2021 with a Hi NRG mix I played back @PARKS for the Feminist Futures Salon. It is an hommage to the old gay club sound which was shaped by the queer icons Sylvester James and Patrick Cowley. Hi NRG will always be connected with the tragedy of the Aids pandemic, which took so many queer lives too soon.
This mix highlights some of the most important tracks of that time and coats them with a swirl of Electroclash, which itself is a revival of the old gay disco club sound.2021-12-241h 19
Queertronica PodcastQuintessential Queerpool @SüdpolAfter such a long time, I was asked to play a techno set for the Queerpool party. Finally, the time had arrived for me to dig out iconic tracks from artists such as Mira Calix, Jasmine Infiniti, SOPHIE and Portishead to deliver a mix filled with female passion for electronic music. Please enjoy it!

Queertronica PodcastThe Forbidden Bodies Acid Mix @PARKSFor the three days event "There is no satisfaction" @PARKS, Hamburg, I was asked to play a 1 hour set. Unfortunately, I was interrupted by the police who asked us to stop the music now. The audience loved the set so much, that I promised to mix it at home with all of its glory.
So, here you have the whole set as it was planned plus another 20 minutes extra material.
A mixture of Chicago House, Acid House and some Techno which blends in perfectly to create another hommage to Black and Queer and Trans Excellence.
Enjoy it to the fullest!2021-10-111h 23
Queertronica PodcastOriental Acid Lovers @ CMD-QueerHere you have my performance at the alternative pride event in Hamburg if there hadn´t be any interruptions. It is a wild ride on House and Techno tracks spiced up with Acid Gems and Oriental Belly Dance Beats. Oozing Queerness in all of its glory, wishing you a safe and happy pride!2021-08-141h 23
Queertronica PodcastExtended Possycast#44For my birthday month, where I will accomplish my 44th year on earth, I was asked to take over the POSSYCAST#44. Now, isn´t that a wonderful occasion to spread some pure love and desire in those hot steamy nights? This version is an all exclusive to my Queertronica Podcast with a little 20 minutes extra material all filled with fabulousness!
Have fun with tunes from the beginnings of Chicago House to the Golden Era of House. Black and Latino Queer Excellence at its finest!
Love,
Saeleen Bouvar2021-07-041h 21
Queertronica PodcastLatino Acid May Strut @ Queer Bcademy 2021Here you have my latest set, which I played at the Queer Bcademy´21. It is a tribute to the Latina Queens of House Music, especially Liz Torres whose tracks have always been dear to my heart. The set starts with early house tracks from the 80s, ends in the 90s and closes with the first Latina woman who became an international pop star and LGBTQ icon.
Please have fun with it!2021-05-011h 13
Queertronica PodcastFemmetronica Mix @ [sic]nal RadioThis mix is a remake of the set I made for @sicnalradio. Because of the very bad sound quality, I decided to re-mix it at my little home studio. I normally wanted to wait a bit, but the urgent case of a POC trans woman in need forces me to publish it now.
Due to the lockdown restrictions she is experiencing a terrible foreclosure, which has led her to current viral threat, in lack of any resource in order to pay her bills, we are making an effort to raise some money so that she can continue to have shelter...2021-04-051h 17
Queertronica PodcastHouse of La Mas BellaAs a Trans Woman you know that if you want something you have to do it yourself. The most stunning example of a human being creating a whole scene is "La Bella" Crystal Labeija, mother of the house of Labeija and legendary trans woman who opened the ballroom scene.
It was rage about the discriminatory racist system that made her create the first ball for black queens.
This mix is an homage to the queen who died too soon.2021-04-021h 12
Queertronica PodcastSilent Firework CompilationEt voilà a very unpretentious compilation of some beloved pieces of mine. The result is a very soothing journey through the joys of classical music combined with pioneer IDM tracks, that always kept me good company. I hope you enjoy it while studying or concentrating.2021-01-101h 40
Queertronica PodcastKinky Sunday Service @ Kinky Sunday’s OnlineThis set is the C*NT-tribution to the party series Kinky Sundays . One half is bathed in the light of housey tunes by Cajmere, Bobmo and Ethyl & Flori, while the second half gets deeper with Jas Shaw, Arttu and the iconic DJ Bone. Enjoy a trip from Chicago to Detroit which will take you to church. Also check their soundcloud page Kinky Sunday’s to discover more DJ sets2020-12-061h 11
Queertronica PodcastThe Venus Of The DancefloorThe Trans Day Of Remembrance is a day we mourn our siblings who were murdered because of the hatred towards trans people.
One of the most popoular documented murder of a trans woman was Venus Xtravaganza, a young iconic Latina famous for her appearance in "Paris is Burning".
She was found four days later, on Christmas day, strangled and hidden under a bed at the Duchess Hotel in New York.
The murderer never got caught. The death of Venus still hurts so much, because we have a documented tape which shows the aspiring model so full of life with all...2020-11-211h 14
Queertronica PodcastBurning Barrel Acid Realness @KampnagelFinally a herstorical set through the depths of black, latino and queer culture! It was partially the set you could hear at the third installment of the Feuertonne @Kampnagel Hamburg. The audience craved to dance inside this pandemic we all have to face. It was such a heartwarming experience! Please have fun with my set and stay safe!
Due to social distancing I coudn´t raise money for the top surgery of Marios, a trans man from Crete. If you like this set, please donate to https://gogetfunding.com/help-marios-with-his-top-surgery/
Thank you!!2020-10-251h 21
Queertronica PodcastKinky Sunday Acid ServiceFinally a herstorical mix that highlights all the Queer Black and Latino Excellence of what kicked off as Acid House! This mix is partially a set I did for the Kinky Sundays Garden, but, and it´s a huge BUTT, the children don´t know the Black Queer Excellence anymore. Now, that the pioneers that made electronic dance music possible are fighting for their reparations from the Trax Records Label, it´s more than important to know, acknowledge and support them!
If you love this mix, please consider donating to Marios, a transgender man from Crete, who needs money for his...2020-10-181h 30
Queertronica PodcastHamburg: Kinky, Altered and Proud @PAL StreamThis set is based on my appearance on the KINKY SUNDAY´S stream at the PAL Hamburg. I re-mixed my set in my livingroom in a higher quality with some minor changes. The result is a kinky, sexy odyssey through the delights of electronic music. I dedicate this set to the Hamburg Pride, which won´t take place this year, which means that organizations like the Hamburg Leuchtfeuer won´t be able to get enough donations. If you like this set, I would be glad if you could donate the little amount that you would pay to hear me in a c...2020-06-211h 33
Queertronica PodcastDyane Prozak´s Birthday Bash @DragslotAnother Sunday, another set. This one takes us backto 2019, when my dear friend Dyane Prozac asked me to play at her birthday bash party at the drag slot. For me Dyane has something essentially punk, so I was surprised to find out that she actually is a Disco Diva. I still want to share this set with you played at the Drag Slot and altered and elevated to the second part of my set at last Salon Queertronique: Sissy, Elektrojahre einer Kaiserin.
Enjoy it deeply!
Love,

Queertronica PodcastBcademical FRONT Homage @ Queer Bcademy 2020My dearest listeners,
after many inquiries to post my set of the Queer Bcademy at the Kampnagel, here it is! It is an hommage to the old FRONT Club in Hamburg. It was the most influencial gay club in the 80s when it brought the Chicago and Acid House to Germany. I was too young to actually party at the FRONT, but I was willing to give it a try recreating what I would play at a party. This re-mixed set is the first hour of my actual hommage to the FRONT at the Queer Bcademy. Have fun with it...2020-03-181h 10
Queertronica PodcastPerlon Kosmik Kittens @ Perlon HamburgI don´t always need to be hardcore underground electro banging, I can be pop and synthie and wavey as well! My dearest sister, Amy TNT, gave me the opportunity to play at her Perlon Party. Of course, you can´t go too hard on people who actually love Madonna and Kylie Minogue, so this is my Perlon Kosmic Kitten Set, a cosmic synth pop set like a mild cosmic breeze on a gay adult movie set on a tropical island on Neptune. Enjoy it!
Tracklist:

Queertronica PodcastLes Liaisons Dangereuses @ Le Salon Queertronique KampnagelA woman who would know exactly what she wanted was the most feared and the most desired creature by men. As trans women, we don´t need to compromise at all, because we are what society fears the most: the knowledge and the key to absolute freedom. Feel free to dance your feet off to this set.
Tracklist:
1. Eartha Kitt won´t compromise
2. Hercules & Love Affair - My Offence (feat. Krystle Warren) [Hercules 2019 Mix]

Queertronica PodcastSaturday Night At The Cloud Cuckoo @ Fusion 2019Finally I can upload that set of mine which I played at the Fusion Festival 2019 on the Cloud Cuckoo stage! Of course the whole set was about 3 hours long and due to technical complications, I couldn´t record it directly, but I created a quintessential overview of that hot night filled with Queer House, sweat, colours and beautiful dancers! Have fun with it my loves!2019-07-191h 19
Queertronica PodcastHouse Set #3: 90 Sissies NostalgiaWhat do you get out of the nostalgia of 90 sissies? A set packed with dancefloor bangers telling a story of love and lust for life, memories of the golden age of house parties, dark corners and numerous sexual encounters.

Queertronica PodcastQueertroniqal Trans Goddess @ Queertroniqa II AthensAn old whore´s knowledge has always been a major threat to the heteronormative and bourgeois society. This set begins with the fabulous work of Paola Revenioti, trans activist and one of Greece´s most important heroines, where she interviews a lovely sex worker on the street asking what men ask of her. Of course the answer is that they all love to receive and to feel more female than even herself. This set is packed with tracks of Simian Mobile Disco, Ellen Allien, Jimmy Edgar, Strip Steve, Tiga and so much more, which I played or intended to play on...2019-03-301h 19
Queertronica PodcastTechno Set #2: Athenian Street Queen MagicJenny Hiloudaki was and is one of my hugest influences and a warrior for the lgbtq+ rights through and through. In a world full of Drag Races and the thoughtless consuming of US-american black gay culture, people tend to forget the local sheroes who stepped up against the hypocrisy and the killing of our beloved sisters. This set begins with an interview with Jenny, where she explains, how, after her 15 year old body was enjoyed by a client, he told her that everybody would enjoy her in the safety of the night, where she took the decision to f*** everybody...2019-02-281h 23
Queertronica PodcastElectro Set #3: Madame E-Lick-TroniqueIt´s the end of the month and once again it´s friday. As I was looking through my music library, I found some older tracks from when I was djing 15 years ago. This is a tribute to the beginning of those non-gay-conformist queer parties who really rocked the floor with that feeling between punk and strawberry cream. Enjoy it!
Tracklisting:
1. Ellen Allien - Alles sehen (Märtini Brös Remix)
2. Hercules And Love Affair - Rejoice (feat. Rouge Mary) [Cowboy Rhythmbox Remix]

Queertronica PodcastTechno Set #1: Justice For The Filthy QueensI began djing 1998. It was the time I got so absorbed by the possibilites of IDM. The sounds, the beats, the sheer composition were somewhat deeper than the aimless appearing functional techno for the dancefloor. I wanted to create a functional set that would highlight IDM tracks without losing its dancability. So, this is it, a hail to the queen of all filth, her majesty Divine, with a mix featuring tracks by Moderat, Andy Stott, Alien Alien, Simian Mobile Disco and so much more!
Tracklisting:
1. Divine - Divine´s Political Beliefs
2. Anna Clementi & Alien Alien - No G.D.M.

Queertronica PodcastHouse Set #1: Old School Voguing DeliriumThe Old School Voguing Delirium is one of my first digital sets. I wanted to start my musical journey with an ode to Voguing by highlighting some classic Techno and Chicago House tunes.

Every single set is made with much thought and love.
