💥 HAPPINASS AS RESISDANCE 💥 WANN: 27.2.2026 Wo: @fluccvienna EINTRITT: 15€ 💥Joy is political. Dance is resistance 💥 @sarazteka Dj Sarazteka blends the raw energy of tribal guaracha with intense beats and thunderous bass. Get ready for a one of a kind sonic experience where folklore fuses with electronic beats, ancestral rhythms collide with tribal force, and the raw energy of the streets pulses through every drop. @fausto.tenorio Fausto Tenorio is a master at playing with the perception and expectations of his audience. His performances are a charming provocation of the laws of physics, whether balancing in a handstand, atop chairs, or soaring through the air on stilts. A graduate of the National Circus School of Rio de Janeiro, he combines technical brilliance with a subtle intellect. His double entendres, wrapped in wit, make children laugh and adults smile knowingly. An artist who turns the world upside down in order to see it anew. @roomy.something Roomy is a Vienna-based multi-disciplinary artist, scholar and DJ from Joburg, South Africa. Roomy's sound, rooted in the township electronic scene, is distinguished by a conceptual & scholarly curiosity mediated through African electronic music, specifically Afro tech, AfroHouse and Gqom. Their approach to curation produces a multi-sensory sonic experience, intentionally layered, and designed to be accessed through different senses.

🎥 Meet Roomy & TJ Tall✨ Part of our collective Rössl, bringing their unique vision into the Festa. Also, Roomy & TJ Tall will offer a live stream of their session, so you can join in even from afar 💻💜 Stay tuned! . . . From Kwaito to Amapiono, Gqom and Afro House: Reflecting on the stories and realities behind South African Electronic Dance Music This is an Interactive DJ Workshop Experience Co-Presented by TJ Tall and Roomy. It traces the sonic and socio-historic journey of South African electronic dance music, from its township origin, culminating in the global popularity of sub-genres like Amapiano, Gqom and Afro-Tech. The story is told through a unique workshop format that integrates live mixing, with socio-historic reflections of the story of the music itself as it evolves from resistance [against Apartheid], to embodying liberation and expressions of black joy in the so-called “post” Apartheid era. A short DJ set at the end synthesizes the story and evolutionary journey so far. . . . Roomy is a multi-disciplinary artist and scholar from South Africa. His work is mostly conceptual, ranging from poetry, paint, photography and dj-ing. In this DJ workshop, he draws from firsthand experience as both an artistic practitioner and socio-legal advocate. @roomy.something . . TJ Tall is a multi-disciplinary musician from St. Vincent and the Grenadines who believes in using music to free minds as well as waistlines. In this workshop, he offers a parallel perspective that compares and contrasts the South African struggle with other colonial contexts. @tjtall.music . . . Graphic: @cort_ina . .

Shake your body? don’t stop? don’t miss? Juss! Another DJ Roomy Remix! Check it out on SoundCloud. Link in the bio It’s a straight up mash between Drumetic boyz “Black Genesis”. And Khia’s My Neck, My Back. Both such seminal works. And together 🔥🤏🏾🥵 Drumetic boyz is often on my set lists. They make incredible South African electronic music 🔥 This is also a work in progress, so I will return to it again later.

This was moments after the incredible performance of “Arrebentação - zona de derrama last chapter” by Catol Teixeira at ImPulsTanz. Thank you to @shereya_ya for co-creating this. I really enjoyed capturing these.
