Rødhåd is the stage name of Mike Bierbach (born 1984 in East Berlin), a DJ and producer who stands as one of the most distinctive voices in Berlin's techno underground. In 2009 he co-founded Dystopian - a party series that grew into an influential record label - alongside two fellow Berliners. He also runs WSNWG, a label dedicated to studio collaborations with like-minded artists. His debut album Anxious (2017) and marathon sets at clubs such as Berghain cemented his reputation for building slow-burning, hypnotic soundscapes.
Rødhåd performed at Awakenings x Spectrum during Amsterdam Dance Event 2025.
Rødhåd released the EP Kallait (WSNWG013) together with Peryl, recorded during studio sessions in Berlin.
Rødhåd re-released his earlier Dystopian catalog via WSNWG Back To Zero, with remixes by Lady Starlight, Rene Wise and Silent Servant among others on the album Revisited.
