Zenker Brothers / Pangaea / re:ni / The Carry Nation / Analog Soul / ALEXIS DE LA ROSA

About

October begins with a very special night, highlighting thrilling crosscurrents in bass-weighted techno. First things first, Zenker Brothers make their BASEMENT debut. The duo of Dario and Marco Zenker have steadily become one of the most beloved and influential units in modern electronic music. Active since the mid ‘00s, they have distinguished themselves in equal measure as producers, DJs and of course as the founders of Ilian Tape, their revered label. Their signature sound mixes rolling techno, broken beat, spacious dub and trace elements of hip hop with an intuitive clarity that is breathtaking. It’s safe to say that our modern, genre-agnostic underground owes them a significant debt of gratitude; they paved the way for countless artists who followed.
