Artist Info
Elektortek
Veerle Pennock (NL) is a creative electronics builder, living beep machine and live performer with modular synth and electronic hardware, performing under the name Elektortek. From self-made electronic circuit bend instruments, MIDI sequenced radio’s and DIY modular experiments gone-wrong, there’s always something strange ticking during her live sets with the clock.
Her style characterizes itself by lo-fi distorted textures, seemingly infinite lines of delayed melodies and modulated spoken word. Her style constantly shifts between very specific and carefully searched for sonic textures, moments of rest for the brain, to a sudden rising tempo, heavy kicks and distortion, trippy soundscapes and a trance-like-pulsating energy that you just can't escape.

Frablum
Frablum, aka Francesco Stablum has been performing live sets with his modular synthesizer since 2017. Previously he experimented with DAW-based productions on various electronic music genres for about 20 years. His current performance focuses on melodic as well noisy, abrasive techno set with occasional ambient soundscapes. One of the goals is to provide a set with high dynamicity encompassing different moods, colors and energy levels.
Recently the focus has shifted toward distinctively modular styles: polyrhythms and triggers from unsynced loops of varying length alter timbrical expressions in semi-predictable ways, eventually finding a common denominator.

Cool Tiger
Cool Tiger creates postmodern rhythmic music at the intersection of club and experimental music. He has carved out a unique sound since his debut in 2014, ranging from polyrhythmic patterns, repeating vocals to powerful techno weapons.
With a deep understanding of tension and release, Cool Tiger positioned himself as a key musician in the Amsterdam underground scene. On the one hand, with his tight-knit label Junction Records he promotes innovative music endeavours; on the other, with his Unknown Electronics collective he fosters live electronic music of diverse backgrounds and genres. His own live performances reflect his tribal explorations and forward-thinking tribulations.
With monthly events and with a constant stream of innovative releases on Junction Records, Lobster Theremin and Berlin’s MOTZ, it is not surprising that he is receiving support from a wide range of DJs and that his upcoming releases are being served with a healthy dose of anticipation.

Klangwaffe
Klangwaffe is a Dutch artist, based in Amsterdam-Utrecht. Before entering the electronic music scene, he was involved as a musician and producer with many different bands and toured extensively. His love for electronic music grew as he got deeper into sounds and synthesis, while at the same time visiting more and more illegal raves and underground techno clubs. His style can be described as raw and minimal, with slight melodic / melancholic hints.
