For When We Dip Magazine’s Main Mix series, we’re delighted to welcome Brina Knauss for episode #194, a live recording captured at UNVRS in Ibiza where she opened for Carl Cox. The set arrives to celebrate her latest release, ‘Take Me Higher’, a three-track EP that lands on her own imprint EMPATH.

Brina has spent the past few years building one of the most distinctive voices in melodic electronic music, with releases on ZAMNA, Cercle, ATLANT and Interstellar shaping a sound that leans on emotion as much as it does on momentum. ‘Take Me Higher’ pushes further into the vocal-led, feeling-first space she has been carving out across her recent sets, and bringing it back to EMPATH gives her the room to follow that instinct without compromise.

The release lands in the middle of a strong run of international dates throughout 2026, a period that continues to see her perform across some of the most respected clubs and festivals in electronic music. Upcoming appearances include Horse Park Festival in Zurich, Lofi Amsterdam, Akumandra Festival in New York, Audioriver Festival in Poland and Tomorrowland Belgium, alongside key Ibiza dates at Ushuaïa, UNVRS, Resistance at Amnesia and Hï Ibiza. It is a schedule that speaks to the momentum behind her right now, and this mix captures what that sounds like in a room of that scale.

Recorded in the warm-up slot for one of the most respected names in the business, the session is a lesson in patience and build. Brina takes her time, letting hypnotic grooves and slow-burning melodies stretch out long before the peak arrives, and the result is a set that works just as well on headphones as it does on an Ibiza floor.

You can now listen to the full mix of ‘Brina Knauss’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
