Aurora Halal makes her much-anticipated return to BASEMENT. The Sustain-Release founder is one of the definitive artists in the NY electronic music scene over the last fifteen years, both as a producer/DJ and as an organizer. It’s indisputable that the impact of her signature festival has been galvanizing for the entire American underground, while her fearless DJ sets explore the cross currents between the evocative, hypnotic and the extreme in equal measure. From her years-running Nowadays residency and to her ceaseless global touring schedule, Halal brings a vitality and wide-open sense of imagination to techno that is all her own. Altinbas is back following his July debut in the room. A resident of Brussels’ renowned Fuse, he has distinguished himself with a sleek, roiling sound that captures a cold-blooded sensuality and relentless momentum with decisive focus. The quality of his productions is evinced in no small part by the company he keeps: he has released on buy-on-sight labels like Ostgut Ton, Non Series, Token and more.
