Irène Drésel

Colorful techno that's as sensual as it is frontal - that's how to describe Irène Drésel's world in a nutshell. A hypnotic world in which languorous, athletic BPMs rub shoulders with crystalline melodies, thwarting the expectations of many a listener to the genre. A polymorphous artist who has left the hustle and bustle of Paris for the peace and quiet of the countryside, Irène Drésel takes care of her universe down to the smallest detail, as evidenced on stage by the roses that gracefully overhang the cold steel of her machines.

Although Irène Drésel composes alone, she is accompanied live by percussionist Sizo Del Givry, adding a certain aura to this visual singularity. This two-piece formula does not, however, exclude the occasional guest appearance.

After two consecutive EPs, "Rita" (2017) and "Icône" (2018), a debut album, "Hyper Cristal", in 2019, followed by "Kinky Dogma", released in 2021, Irène Drésel is preparing a new album to be released in January 2024.

Calling Marian

Calling Marian is a unique producer. Trained in musicology, she draws inspiration from multiple artistic horizons to create strong, sincere and emotional music, where techno, acid and trance meet. Her aim is to create a strong synergy between techno and club rhythms, nostalgic harmonies and catchy melodies.

Characterized by her autonomy, she composes, records, produces and mixes all her tracks, distributing them on the CVNT Records label she set up in 2017. Live, she is accompanied by machines and synthesizers.

The strength of this producer is her stage presence, whether as a DJ set on alternative stages such as Wet For Me, La Trou aux Biches, Jeudi OK, Nova Mix Club, Disorder or Kindergarten, or live on stage at major festivals such as Marsatac, Rock en Seine, Les Vieilles Charrues, Panoramas, Scopitone, Hop Pop Hop, les Nuits Sonores, Sakifo, Le Fusion Festival... In the course of her career, which has spanned just a few years, she has also opened for renowned artists such as Weval, Laurent Garnier, Jeanne Added, Arnaud Rebotini, Chloé and Emika.

After numerous remixes and four consecutive EPs ("The Parade" in 2017, "Rainmaking" in 2019, "Pisces" in 2018 and "Calling For The Past" in 2020), she is preparing for 2023 her debut album "Hyper Opus", a manifesto work that questions our relationship with feminism and sisterhood, and their power in the face of the ecological and human dramas playing out in our time. The tracks are conceived as the different tableaux of a global work, and as the soundscapes of an adventure whose interpretation, by its instrumental nature, is left up to the listener.

Aftershow Deklicat

Lulled by music from an early age, and for some years now especially by electronic music, it was only logical that she should turn to the techno mix in 2020. She's more interested in melodic minimal techno with a melancholy edge, but at the same time rhythmic and danceable, and above all, hair-raising. "Transcendent techno" is what we've heard.

She also mixes dark techno, between softness and darkness, with a faster rhythm, while keeping moments of breathing, more melancholic and melodic.
Each of her sets is a story she wants to tell, her own story that represents her.
