Blond:ish — June 2026

Blond:ish is the project of Montreal-born DJ, producer, and Abracadabra Records founder Vivie-Ann Bakos, whose work sits at the intersection of organic house, melodic techno, and conscious electronic music culture — a position she has maintained consistently across more than a decade of international touring that has made Blond:ish one of the genre's most recognizable acts globally. Her sound is built around slower-building, hypnotic arrangements that incorporate acoustic instrumentation, natural sound design, and melodic motifs drawn from world music alongside the rhythmic foundation of house and techno — a combination that gives her productions genuine distinctiveness within a genre crowded with technically accomplished but sonically similar acts. Her Abracadabra Records imprint, launched as an independent label and community platform, functions as both a release vehicle for her own productions and a curatorial statement about what conscious electronic music can be: music that acknowledges its relationship to club culture while pursuing emotional and sonic depth beyond functional dancefloor utility. Her Burning Man performances — spanning multiple years across White Ocean and other playa installations — established her as a fixture in the festival circuit's most discerning context, building an audience among electronic music devotees who value intention and atmosphere as much as pure energy. Her Ibiza residency history, culminating in an 11-week headline residency at Pacha Ibiza in 2025 with the Abracadabra concept, gave her the international credibility that precedes Las Vegas bookings on the global touring circuit. In Las Vegas in 2026, Blond:ish holds residency bookings at Zouk Nightclub and AYU Dayclub at Resorts World Las Vegas — the Strip's most electronic-music-forward club complex — as well as Palm Tree Beach Club at MGM Grand. The Zouk and AYU bookings place her within a venue ecosystem specifically built for the kind of electronic music she produces: a Funktion-One sound system at Zouk capable of rendering the acoustic detail her organic productions require, and an AYU daylight environment where melodic, atmospheric house translates naturally without the cave-darkness compression of a nightclub main room. Her Palm Tree Beach Club dates reach a broader pool-season audience — guests who may encounter her sound for the first time and follow them deeper into the catalog afterward.
