The night doesn't end — it evolves.
Closing party with creep.exe — 23:30 @ Studio Thor.
Half step a robot, two step an animal, creep.exe makes the rounds with her percussion-heavy sets, bi-monthly resident on Kiosk radio under the moniker MESSe BASSe. Her sets blend machinic 313ctro and breaks with dubstep, uk garage and always more woobly tunes. Infused by cybernetic and dystopian aesthetics, her music still serve one purpose and one purpose only — come together and dance, comrades, dance!

Garance Debert | Figurative Furniture | 25.04 | 21:30 | Studio Thor
