Our summer affairs are still lingering in the mind, and flashbacks are welcomed. During our hosting Cafe Afsnis on day 10 of GF26, Esther brought her BW analogue skills to the dancefloor and captured what it’s all about: the people, music, and everlasting yet too short nights.

Endless love to all the artists who brought their sound to the speakers, tirelessly keeping the place moving from 6PM-6AM. Shoutout to Aron and the crew of Afsnis for letting us do this again (back in 2027?). And a final bisou to you all who came, danced, got together, and made the morning come too soon

Tomorrow a new sound rises, lighting up the summer moods. Coming to Funke with an all killer no filler line-up to celebrate good weather and togetherness while alleviating sorrows and obstacles in an inclusive, auditive manner. A quick overview of the evening:

19:00-20:30
Our crew is taking care of some electronic tango/lounge/triphop type music, grab a drink and relax.

20:30-22:00
Robin Naeye brings a dubby warm groove through the window, leading towards sundown and into darker, more intense hours.

23:00-01:00
Lifeasme rolls out syncopated grooves and tight kickdrums to feel something, a set that takes you on a journey through a careful and deep track selection with meticulous mixing.

01:00-02:30
makes the speakers talk tekno and emotions, from melancholy to euphoria. A route through a lost world with obscure breaks and hitting percussion.

02:30-04:00
Mathlovsky brings the hardcore side of his multidisciplinary arts, with fingers still blistered from the riffs of his Modder show earlier on the day. A full improvised live-set that shows a unique vision on brutal sounds and modern hardcore techno.

04:00-05:30
is the collaborative project of Iren and Dogsattack, founders of Spectre Noir. Rooted in darkpsy, industrial and hardcore influences, it shapes a post-trance vision. Extreme rhythms, melancho-tragic atmospheres and latent anguish merge into a high-intensity experience.

05:30-07:00
WARRUH x .bajraktari_thc join forces to bring a blend of their ideas on what music should represent. A hardware live set with four faders up, ranging from breaks and soundscapes to annihilation and acidic leads.

No more to be said, a good reason to spend a night awake. See you on the floor x
