Update 25 Jan: Due to illness, Volition Immanent will not be appearing tonight. Replacing a postponed Volition Immanent, Rachel and Bryan Jackson of Spit Mask have carved out a savage, unyielding space in Berlin’s darkwave and industrial scene since leaving Texas behind. Rack-lashed samples, jagged basslines, and vocals that drip venom choke out the ears with filth-stained lace as this debased duo drag EBM and power electronics through the mud. Currently at work on their second album, their music is a brutal paradox—painfully raw yet unnervingly precise, a well-dressed dominatrice of back-alley aural built to poke and provoke. No catharsis or resolution here, only a sado-masochistic good time. 

Fusing Myanmar’s rich musical traditions with cutting-edge electronics, Htoo aka LnHD crafts hard-hitting dancefloor narratives woven from her Burmese heritage.

The flensed intensity of industrial with the sweaty energy and philosophy of hardcore punk delivers catharsis—Donna Haringwey’s vicious bangers transmogrify despair into anger and hope, vitriolic synthesis with the sweaty energy and message of hardcore deliver an accessible yet powerful social commentary.

A hyperreal exploration of identity, transformation, and the boundaries between organic and artificial realities, Isaka’s EP Elytra is built on her »hyperbass« framework and a blend of hand-drawn collages, sketches, and AI-assisted 3D imagery. Merging aggressive low-end energy with sound design, glitchy textures, and hyperpop vocals that balance experimental abstraction with dance fever immediacy, themes of insect moulting thread through the work: metamorphosis as a cyclical, layered and often traumatic process.

The alias of DJ and visual artist Hala Namer, LazerGazer’s evocative basslines, hypnotic rhythms, and raw emotional energy draws on her Syrian heritage and a deep connection to contemporary club culture, deftly weaving bass, percussion, breaks, electro and more into mythic, dancefloor-igniting energy.

Parrish Smith's approach to electronica spans a vast spectrum, weaving intricate layers of sound with an almost uncanny subtlety, shaping a musical language that defies convention. Rejecting the constraints of contemporary techno, Smith constructs spaces that challenge rigid perspectives, pushing listeners toward a freer, more open state of mind. Emotion and raw intensity fuel his work, not only in club music but across film scores and soundtracks, proving his mastery in bending genre to his will.
