Shadowy contours and playful melodies take over the last Friday of June. Aurora Halal, the force behind Brooklyn’s Mutual Dreaming and Sustain Release festival, brings hazy sensuality and metallic intensity in live hardware and DJ sets, blends that fuse darkness, euphoria, and emotional depth. Paris’s Bambounou offers futuristic, jubilant sets rooted in UK techno, IDM, and tribal rhythms, inspired by astrophysics and sci-fi, he effortlessly straddles experimental eclecticism and 4x4 beat mastery. Ineffekt delivers dreamy melodies and vibrant rhythms shaped by electro, altpop, house and hints from a new wave of colourful electronica. They surround themselves with influences from a wide range of contemporary music, not so much aiming for a specific, but reaching for a compromise between eras and stylistically diverse sounds.
