Born in Varna, D‑KLINED began his DJ career in 2016 at the age of 21, developing a signature sound across House (Deep House, Organic Downtempo, Minimal/Deep Tech, Tech House) and Techno (Hypnotic, Hardgroove, RAW). Over the years, he has become a recognizable figure in Bulgaria’s electronic scene, performing at major clubs, festivals, and concept events.
Early Years (2016–2019) His journey started with warm‑up sets for Ruiz Sierra (Egothermia, Deeperfect, IAMT) at Club Base Varna, followed by the Summer Tech Showcase at Club EGGO. By 2018 he was part of Rubik Sessions #003 alongside Dirty Dylan, Georgie Tech, Saffron and Sniff. 2019 marked a period of intense activity: performances at GadRoom Varna with Kozin (Alien Man), AWOL with Filthy Kid, Toucan Society, and multiple collaborations with Oktay and Crassy. He also played Defragler’s BDay Bass at FarBar and released a YouTube set from the event.
Growth & Livestream Era (2021) D‑KLINED joined “With Love For the Electronic Music” at HALL3 with Kozin, Oswald Xenton and Himera. He appeared on BRS Records Livestream Vol. 1 and Vol. 8, expanding his reach to online audiences.
EMOS & FarBar Residency (2022) A key moment came with meeting Lachezar Peev, Retek and iSorce, joining their EMOS concept. He performed at a series of successful FarBar events with Kozin, Oswald Xenton, Filip Hristov, Oktay DJ and others, two of which were recorded and published online. He became a resident DJ at FarBar, launching his own concepts Black Pearl and The Road to El Dorado. He also collaborated with BLVKCAT, contributing to events at FarBar, Rubik Art Center and the newly opened fetish club Taboo EFC. His personal concept Enslaved debuted at Taboo EFC — three 8‑hour techno nights showcasing the full spectrum of the genre.
Decibel Residency & Sunseekers (2023) In 2023 he became a resident DJ at Decibel Club Varna, curating events with Kristy Plam and hosting top techno artists such as Sudo, Bultech, Tommy Riverra, Phoenix Movement, Christian Cracken and Metodi Hristov. He also performed multiple times at Sunseekers Open Air events, delivering warm‑up, peak‑time and sunrise closing sets.
Expansion & New Collaborations (2024) D‑KLINED was invited by Rave Together BG to perform at the Plovdiv festival Lost In Hills, delivering extended organic downtempo sets across two days. He debuted at Makalali Beach Bar with a b2b set alongside Danielitto for Phoenix Movement. He began collaborating with fashion designer Diana Ilieva on her Seasonal Bazaar Sofia project, performing at the Bazaar & Beach Party at Bar Simple Beach. He organized a Rooftop Afterhours at Palm Rooftop Bar and strengthened the techno scene at Taboo EFC with peak‑time events during the winter season.
Decode Events & RAW Techno Era (2025) On November 1, he co‑founded Decode Events with Daniel Georgiev, launching with a major event at Rubik Art Center. This year marked his transition into RAW / DEEP / Hypnotic / Hardgroove Techno — a style that became central to his artistic identity. He met Chris Lock (G‑Sound EDM), forming a strong partnership dedicated to developing Varna’s techno culture. Decode Events hosted Christmas Night Ritual at Taboo EFC with Viktorija (DJ SHOP), a rising RAW techno artist and HOR Berlin finalist. Their synergy behind the decks became a highlight of the event.
New Labels, New Cities, New Concepts (2026) D‑KLINED debuted at Club Pave Sofia with the V‑Day Bazaar edition of Seasonal Bazaar Sofia. He performed Chris Lock B2B D‑KLINED at Taboo EFC, exploring hypnotic, RAW and hardgroove directions. He joined the 26 GRAMS ARAYA Birthday Bash — a crossover event blending Drum & Bass and Techno artists. He appeared at Techno Protocol II with Repulse and Paola S. His debut in Plovdiv came with the Easter Seasonal Bazaar at Bar The Post, presenting three musical concepts: House B2B Danielitto, House Solo and Tech House. He continued with Decode The Dancefloor alongside Viktorija and closed the season with Himera Hyper, VOYAGER and D‑KLINED.
