Cloudy launches ANGELS, a FLINTA* party series with a ban on photos and filming
The Cologne-based DJ and producer held the first edition at The Loft in Amsterdam during ADE. More cities are planned, with dates still to come.
Cloudy has launched ANGELS, a new FLINTA*-focused party series. The Cologne-based DJ and producer plans to take it to venues in several cities, DJ Mag reports. FLINTA* stands for women, lesbian, intersex, non-binary, trans and agender people.
What ANGELS stands for
ANGELS draws on Cloudy’s own experiences in the electronic music scene, according to a press release cited by DJ Mag. The project aims to build a more diverse, supportive and inclusive club culture. To that end, the series will give a platform to both emerging and established FLINTA* talent.
The ANGELS house rules
In addition, each party runs on a set of house rules. These include a ban on photography and filming, DJ Mag notes. In other words, the dance floor stays off camera. The team also posted its rules on Instagram, under the headings “house rules”, “awareness & safety concept” and “community guideline”. The ANGELS account, @angelsbycloudy, shared the post jointly with Cloudy’s own profile.
“Everyone who shares these values is welcome,” the ANGELS team wrote, as quoted by DJ Mag. “We ask all guests to respect each other’s boundaries and the community we’re bringing together.”
The first ANGELS night in Amsterdam
The first edition ran from 11 PM on Sunday, Oct 25 to 5 AM at The Loft Amsterdam, according to the ADE program page. That was the final day of this year’s Amsterdam Dance Event, which ran from Wednesday, Oct 21. For more from the week, see BEZ’s ADE 2026 events guide. Cloudy played alongside SPFDJ, Kim Swim, Laure Croft and Aiden. The night sold out, says host Audio Obscura.
Details on further editions will follow soon, according to DJ Mag. However, DJ Mag’s report lists no new dates or cities yet.
A busy month for Cloudy
The launch comes after Cloudy’s “GIRLS 001” EP, which came out in October. According to DJ Mag, the record explores female empowerment and self-expression. That makes ANGELS her second new project in October. Next, she heads to Los Angeles, where she is on the bill for Time Warp Los Angeles on Nov 27.
