Peter Invasion, DJ and producer from Leipzig, is a key figure in East Germany’s electronic music scene.

Their remixes for artists like Damon Jee, Benjamin Froehlich,Cabizbajo, Theus Mago & Moderna and Badwolf have earned wide recognition — with "Dame Mas" even hitting #1 in Beatport’s Pick of the Month. In addition to their solo work, Peter also teamed up with his former band Here Is Why to collaborate with Adam Port on the EP "Our Fate“, released on Keinemusik — a testament to his creative versatility.
Peter’s DJ career has taken him to Panorama Bar / Berghain, Robert Johnson, Pikes Ibiza, Shelter, Good Room, Bar Americas, Kaputt Club, EDC Mexico, Printworks London, Burning Man’s Mayan Warrior, and Garbicz Festival, to clubs and festivals around the globe — from Bali to New York, Los Angeles, Shanghai, Hawaii, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Madrid, Bogotá, Stockholm, Ibiza, Mexico City, and beyond. His mixes appear on platforms like Keinemusik, Mayan Warrior, Permanent Vacation, HÖR, LOT Radio, Public Possession, Ibiza Sonica Radio, Arte Concert and Beatport. He's a regular fixture at Rebolledo's "Rated R" parties and a sought-after DJ at Topaz Deluxe Monterrey.
