The first day of Borderline finds us at the free outdoor stage of the Municipal Market in the heart of Kypseli. Starting right off the bat with high energy, the day combines fluid verses from Nigerian rapper Aunty Rayzor, driving Detroit electro from AUX 88, a genre- and tempo-hopping DJ set by BAMBII, and fresh rap, trap, and reggaeton selections from ZoneToZone.

ZoneToZone
Rou and Selene are two Athens-based music lovers and curators sharing an interest in the intersection of cultures through sound. Their sets consist of a wide range of rap and trap, specifically linking or blending European and African tracks.
Aunty Rayzor
Rayzor slices through beats faster than a Japanese knife, while Aunty commands the respect of a veteran rapper. Bisola Olugbenga, aka Aunty Rayzor, has been in the music game since an early age, sharpening her incredible vocal skills in church as a child and her deadly rap flow at hip-hop battles across Nigeria; now the young artist is set to take over the world. Known in the Nigerian underground as the Naija Thugress, she combines the power flow of Missy Elliott with the grace and boldness of Erykah Badu, so versatile she is as good on a hard hip-hop beat as she is on an afro-house or afrobeat, performing in both English and her native Yoruba. Aunty Rayzor recently gained national attention for her performance at a prestigious freestyle battle, then dropping "kuku corona" which became Nigeria's pandemic anthem. She has performed to stadium crowds and at some of the most important festivals in Nigeria, including a sold-out show at the Shrine during Felabration. In 2021, she joined Kampala's Nyege Nyege crew working with several producers on her upcoming debut album. Rayzor is also a young mother and finds her drive and inspiration in providing for her family and making her mother and daughter proud through everything she does.
AUX 88
AUX 88 is pleased to announce the release of their new EP, “Alpha Waves,” and the launch of their 35th anniversary world tour. Releasing in May 2024, AUX 88 is tapping into new frequencies with an EP mastered at 432 Hz. Inspired by their history as one of the earliest techno/electro groups originating from Detroit, “Alpha Waves” pays homage to the city being the originator of the sound that is now popular worldwide. Soon thereafter, AUX 88 will embark on their 35th Anniversary World Tour on April 26, 2024, kicking off in Athens, Greece and traveling through Europe and East Asia.
BAMBII
Toronto-based producer and DJ, BAMBII makes lush, exuberant electronic music that feels futuristic and transportive but that also burrows into your bones and matches the pounding of your heartbeat, reminding you of your corporeality. Her new EP, “Infinity Club” (released August 4th, 2023), plays with these dueling impulses between the immediate and the conceptual. It is a celebration of home and belonging not only as a physical space—the dance floor, her family’s homeland of Jamaica, which she pays homage to via dancehall—but also as a state of mind.
