Berlin- and Ibiza-based DJ and producer Gallya is a well-known name in the electronic music scene. Whether crafting a rolling techno bassline or a dynamic tech-house track, Gallya’s ability to consistently deliver dark, immersive, yet vibrant productions has made her a force to be reckoned with. After multiple releases on mau5trap and two remixes of Deadmau5, she reached a turning point in her career and decided to shift back to tech-house—the genre where her journey originally began.
In 2015, she launched her own label, Set About, in partnership with Metodi Hristov. Though still relatively young, Set About has quickly become one of the most highly respected labels in techno, releasing music from artists such as GusGus, Dennis Cruz, Stefano Noferini, Matt Sassari, and more. The label has provided Gallya with a platform not only to release her own music but also to support artists she’s passionate about from around the world.
Gallya’s breakthrough moment came in 2016 when she was nominated as one of Beatport’s Top Tech House Artists. By releasing a slew of successful EPs on labels like Set About, Off Recordings, Kinetika, Deeperfect, and Elrow Music, she carved out her place at the forefront of mind-bending techno and dark, driving tech-house. Through label showcases in South America and Europe, she built a strong international fan base, solidifying her reputation as a sought-after artist.
Her evolution continued in 2017 with a series of standout EPs, including Detroit, Felicity, and Control, released on Set About, Funk’n Deep Records, and Say What? Records, respectively. Each release helped shape an even bigger, more distinctive sound.
Her track Machines broke into the Beatport Techno Top 100, peaking at #16 and remaining in the charts for an entire month. The track gained support from top techno DJs, including Deadmau5, who played it on BBC Radio 1 Residency, ultimately leading to Gallya signing with his label mau5trap for several releases in 2018 and 2019. Beyond its DJ-world success, Machines was also featured in a major film, fueling Gallya’s inspiration to pursue longer-term production goals, including scoring horror movies.
As she continues to evolve, Gallya remains dedicated to pushing boundaries through both music and global touring. With releases on Set About South under her belt and another mau5trap EP on the way, she stands as one of the hardest-working, most prolific, and most promising talents in electronic music today.
