The SHAPE+-supported alys(alys)alys smashes experimental club and Soundcloud vibes into wild, unpredictable works and DJ sets that are as much party as experiment: playful, collage-heavy jams thriving in that sweet spot where genres clash and brains get dropped in the blender. One of the minds behind the now-defunct collective and Tresor residency Dry Berlin, this is her second appearance at CTM.

Rattlesnakke slithers through sonics with beats that hit like thunderclaps and vocals dripping with unrelenting energy. Filled with the defiant energy of Argentina’s youth, she’s bringing a live set of bass-heavy guaracha vibes, urban swagger and glistening latincore rap-pop to CTM.

One of the most influential voices in the world of funk carioca—a genre that she helped elevate from the streets of Rio de Janeiro to global recognition—Deize Tigrona’s sharp lyricism and unapologetic delivery blends humor and social commentary with infectious energy. You’ll find her influence across myriad other artists’ work; her song “Injeção” was used as the basis for M.I.A.’s »Bucky Done Gun.«

A key innovator in Gqom’s evolution, State OFFF’s debut EP GQOM TODAY pushes the boundaries of the genre’s minimalist, dark rhythms into gnarly territory, blending its driving pulse with a dynamic range of contemporary sounds from the African diaspora and beyond.

Formerly one half of the duo Black Cadmium, Joginda explores an esoteric range of styles, from dub and breakbeat to African tribal tech and IDM. A captivating force behind the decks, his body-jacking, oft-vicious and always-immersive sets never fail to cuck expectation.
