Kristin Velvet debut on EXIT STRATEGY
Channelling the spirit of ’90s Chicago and Detroit house!

With her latest release, Kristin Velvet channels the spirit of ’90s Chicago and Detroit house, delivering tracks that feel both timeless and stylish. A key figure in the Berlin club scene, she co-runs the label Arms & Legs Records with Daniel Steinberg, and her music has been released on labels such as Crosstown Rebels, Watergate and Ovum, earning support from DJs around the world.
Stolen Faces emerges from a darker, hypnotic headspace, carried by a hip-hop vocal and stripped-back synths that make it easy to imagine yourself sliding and twisting across the dancefloor. Push channels the pulse of the floors that shaped Kristin, a direct link to the energy that first drew her into house music. Gratitude forms the emotional core of the release, a thank-you to the dancers and moments that remind her why music is home.
