ROOM 1
__________________________________
ALGIERS SOUNDSYSTEM [USA] [LIVE]
Atlanta's dystopian warriors return to Bucharest with their Soundsystem act, featuring Ryan and Lee performing works from Algiers, Nun Gun and Dead Meat.
These post-punk innovators have built one of the most exciting cult followings around. Their Soundsystem acts abandon traditional band performance for something more primal – pure energy channeled through speakers, connecting worlds and sounds in ways that'll leave you questioning everything. As The New York Times put it: they blast "songs of damage and redemption.”

YEARS OF DENIAL [FR/CZ] [LIVE]
Taking the stage in the early hours of the night, this is the project of French musician Jerome Tcherneyan and Czech performance & music artist, lyricist, and singer-songwriter Barkosina Hanusova. Active since 2016, the duo has become known across the globe for their well-crafted sharp productions and electrifying live performances. Utilizing hardware and a plethora of dub devices combined with Barkosina’s unmistakable vocals, the pair revisit the dark corners of post-punk, goth, new beat, EBM, industrial, and rave culture.
Delivering a sound they call Suicide Disco, their live shows are combining a sense of mystery and artistry with heavy electronics, but having a lively party vibe.

PHASE FATALE [USA/DE]
Hayden Payne operates with precision drawing in hypnotic rhythms that feel both ancient and ripped right from the future. The US-born, Berlin-based producer weaves gnarly basslines and creates truly powerful sonic experiences. His sound draws from post-punk DNA while maintaining pure dancefloor devotion, evident across three albums including 'Scanning Backwards' on Ostgut Ton.
Payne's residencies at legendary venues like Berghain and KHIDI showcase his ability to read rooms and mull energies. Through his BITE label, he’s been proving that techno's most compelling stories emerge from those who understand both its underground origins and evolutionary potential.

________
VIVIANIT
With a carefully crafted dark retro-futurist universe, Vivianit channels new wave nostalgia through 80s italo disco and EBM, always hunting for that perfect balance between vintage synth warmth and cutting-edge production. Her sets feel like soundtracks to a melancholic future – simultaneously backward-gazing and forward-thinking, every track chosen to blur the lines between yesterday and tomorrow.
_________________
WALENTIN PAUER
Well-versed in reckless experimentation and an uncompromising dancefloor attitude, Walentin Pauer turned dilettantism into a work ethic, reading rooms without sacrificing the edge.
From Renate's legendary Silvester parties to Kater Blau, he brings layers of darkness embraced by surface light – never satisfied, always pushing boundaries. His choices always got a finger firmly on the underground pulse.

ROOM 2
___________________
ND_BAUMECKER [DE]
Andreas Baumecker weaves together disco, house, techno, and electro with the precision of a seasoned craftsman who's been reading dance floors since 1991 — which is exactly what he is.
Starting in Frankfurt's underground scene before landing at Berlin's Berghain as both resident DJ and booker, he treats each set as an experimental playground where brute force meets tender moments. His approach centers on surprise and flow, connecting disparate sounds through an intuitive understanding of music’s universal language.

______________________
VON BÜLOVE & BARON P.
Longtime friends, Cosima Opartan (von Bülove) and Baron P. join forces behind the night for a refined set, blending "outernational minimal restaurant music” and deep house energy.
She's Queer Night founding member and Corp. platform’s architect; he's the harmonious blend of deep grooves and uplifting riffs. Together, they bring pure alchemy.

RAUL TOMI-RUS (WAVES WITH NO ENDS)
Sixteen years deep in the underground, Raul is a selector who brings brooding darkness that cuts straight to the bone. Post-punk, new wave, darkwave, and synth flow through his selections like blood through the veins – each track chosen to pull you deeper into the shadows.
Whether organizing concerts or behind the decks, his passion bleeds through every beat, creating waves that truly have no ends.
_____________________
DRAGOȘ RUSU & CLIZA
Dragoș Rusu, one of Bucharest's most reputable selectors, crafts experimental sets that demolish boundaries of space, time, and genre. Cliza dives deep into his crates, pulling world grooves into collision with funk, electronic heat, and punk rawness.
Together, they tap into primal energy – expect retro-nostalgia, but prepare for things to get devastatingly real.
