after scanning millions of planets, sniffing billions of men, and surviving countless encounters with fragile masculinity, the CHOKE HOLE federation has finally made contact. they heard about the never-ending peace discussions, the riots to overthrow fascist rats in power, and the eternal battle over who the true heir to ajvar really is... obviously, the universe's most dangerous drag wrestlers have been dispatched to Kosovo to settle every Balkan dispute the only civilized way: FIGHT. …and take our men. on 5 September, CHOKE HOLE is landing at Prishtina Queer Festival for BALKAN BEATDOWN — an EXXXTREME DRAG WRESTLING spectacle where the only rule is… there are no rules, bitch! grab your tickets before they disappear into another galaxy. we'll see u in the ring. _ _ _ _ the choke hold doesn’t stop there because we have the most incredible line-up of DJs behind the decks all night to keep us in a trance! angelboy (they/she) is an Amsterdam DJ and producer known for upbeat, body-focused sets that fluidly blend genres like glitchy techno, hardgroove, electro, and psychedelic trance, with a touch of South American rhythms – all bound by a sensuality that get the hips moving. In addition to their high-energy club performances, they host Hysteria, a monthly residency on Echobox where they experiment with eclectic, leftfield sounds and themes outside genre lines. As a sociologist, advocate for the queer community, and longtime club kid, angelboy transforms dancefloors into spaces of connection, energy, and joy. Oldyungmayn’s identity moves through his work as a current - refracted through rhythm, bass pressure, and affective tone. As a Palestinian-Egyptian DJ and producer, now based in Berlin, he emerged from Dubai’s self-built underground - a place where creative spaces were scarce and dancefloors had to be invented from nothing. Out of this absence, he forged a sound both tactile and elusive: bass-heavy, rhythmically volatile, and charged with emotional dissonance. Rebiswan is a Prishtina-based DJ and cultural worker whose sound flows across genres and boundaries. As a co-founder of Hyjneshat, a queer collective at the heart of Kosovo’s underground scene, they are deeply rooted in community-building, care, and radical joy. Their work moves between nightlife and activism, using music as a tool for expression, connection, and liberation. Prishtina Queer Festival returns for its fourth edition on 4–6 September 2026. Built by and for the community, PQF is a volunteer-led collective where every ticket purchased directly supports the organisation and continuation of the festival’s events.
