Stella Zekri
- Sunday Barefoot Stage
Stella Zekri is a Berlin-based DJ, curator and musician whose approach to music is guided by feeling rather than formula. What began as a passion for collecting hip-hop, funk, soul, jazz and boogie records gradually evolved into a distinctive DJ practice rooted in warmth, intuition and deep musical knowledge. Known for her soulful selections and vinyl-driven approach, Stella moves effortlessly between groove-heavy house, disco, deep dub and acid, always prioritising atmosphere and connection over technical showmanship. Her sets feel organic and alive, shaped as much by her experience as a dancer as by her years spent digging for records.
Beyond the booth, she is a central figure in Berlin’s club community. As co-founder of the Body Language party series, she has helped create an open and inclusive space that celebrates diversity through music, people and dancefloor culture. She is also a longtime resident at Cocktail d’Amore and a regular presence at Panorama Bar. Alongside her DJ career, Stella explores her love for live performance through Stella and the Longos, a collaborative project inspired by ‘80s zouk and boogie that blends timeless influences with a contemporary spirit. Whether behind the decks, on stage or on the airwaves, Stella Zekri brings a rare sense of warmth, curiosity and genuine love for music to everything she does.
