RÄzvan, better known in the hypnotic techno circuit as Michael Ius, is one of them names that rings bells far beyond home turf. Internationally respected and heavy in the rotation, heâs the kind of artist whose name stays on everybodyâs lips in Germany whenever the talk turns to buildinâ a proper playlist.
Now heâs ready to press the controls of the mothership and guide us through that crucial shift â from night into daylight, from deep hypnotic techno into full-blown afterhours.
And yeah, donât sleep on that beautiful EP he dropped on RĂždhĂ„dâs label - âEletric Impulseâ.
Go run that record and hear for yourself.

conceptual theatre.
Day 1âEducationalâPanel talk
Saturday 30 MayâBarton Bucharest
18:00â19:30
Free entry, Limited capacity
âShifting frequencies: infrastructure, needs and futures of electronic musicâ
Developed by the Italian Cultural Institute of Bucharest, Supersanity and ROBOT Festival, in
partnership with British Council Romania, and in collaboration with the Polish Institute and
EUNIC Romania, the event creates a shared space for artists, curators, cultural producers and audiences to engage in an open dialogue;
It reflects the increasing interaction between independent and institutional actors, driven by
changing funding environments, evolving cultural practices and a shared interest in building
more resilient and inclusive ecosystems.
Day 2âConceptual raveâMain event
Sunday 31 MayâForge Bucharest
14:00â06:00
âSanctum entanglementâ,
A multidisciplinary event bringing together conceptual theatre, performance, experimental
fashion and live electronic music in a metaphysical format.
14:00âThe event opens in the outdoor courtyard of Forge Bucharest as a Daytime Rave and
community gathering with DJ sets by ADA KALEH, ALISTARM & CARMEN.
21:00âThe public is invited inside the main hall for the premiere of ADA KALEHâs forthcoming
album, titled "Sanctum entanglement", a literal and aural translation of a near death experience.
Simultaneously a surrealist performance-installation slowly takes shape: two chess players
make decisions guided solely by ritual, while a fifth character, the universe itself, moves the
pieces and may override any decision at will.
An absurd metaphor for a reality governed by illusion.
22:30âLive concert by LORENZO SENNI (Warp Records)
23:30âDJ sets by KATATONIC SILENTIO (Ilian Tape, Delsin Records), MICHAEL IUS (Techno Diatom)

Iâm slowly resuming my instagram presence cuz Iâve been in recovery mode.
3 months without scrolling through feed/reels, just checking inbox and notifications from time to time.
This has restored my perception about time, about my thoughts, about being bored. Creative process mode is on, new EPs to be released on my BandCamp and stuff. đ«
Osijek - weâre celebrating Womenâs Day with this great two men and woman at @oxygene.hr on March 7th! đč
