As one of the original members of the Fast Forward collective and agency, Schacke has played a significant role in shaping and defining what has become known as the ‘’Copenhagen Fast Techno Sound’’ and also released music under a variety of different aliases on labels such as Kulør, Mama Told Ya, KAOS, Instruments Of Discipline and Intrepid Skin - now also running their own label, Sacred Interface.

From 29 October to 3 November, the BIFF – Budapest International Film Festival will bring the world’s latest and most exciting festival film selection to the capital.

Her most recent EP on KI/KI’s Slash is described as an ”impressive combination of immersive basslines transforming into huge amounts of dancefloor euphoria”. DINA has also released on illustrious labels such as Amniote Editions, Space Trax, Live From Earth, and her own imprint Nachtcrew.
