Rotterdam, brace yourselves. The pressure is about to rise. On January 16, we welcome Blunt Force Objekt to the LEVEL UP lineup at @160k_rotterdam . This collaborative project emerges from the city’s underground, uniting artists from Derailed Radio and Records @invalid_requestt together with Rotterdam cornerstone @hendrik.gg Formed within the scene itself, Blunt Force Objekt delivers techno that is focused, physical, and uncompromising. Heavy percussion, dense low-end, and stripped club structures drive a sound built on momentum and impact. Their approach channels Rotterdam’s hard-edged heritage into a modern and forward-looking form, where intensity meets control. Their sets are powerful, immersive, and precise, transforming the dancefloor into a space defined by pressure, energy, and motion. ✮ Set time: TBA

On Jan 16, we welcome @trafficjammosquito to the LEVEL UP lineup at @160k_rotterdam , a BIPOC, non-binary, percussion-driven DJ whose sets fuse raw rhythm, bold identity and unstoppable groove. As the founder behind @trafficjams___ , resident dj at House of Spiders, and lead guitarist of Paradise Parrots, Traffic Jam Mosquito lives at the crossroads of music, culture and community. Their sound moves across genres while staying rooted in bass, bounce and emotion. With performances at Legal Club in Munich, Club NYX in Amsterdam, and Radiosmederij in Tilburg, TJM has been carving out a signature presence in the underground. Fresh off the decks, their latest track Acidgroove pushes that boundary-breaking style even further. For TJM, music is power, connection and liberation, turning every dancefloor into a space where authenticity leads and community thrives. ✮ Set time: TBA
