We are delighted to host for the first time Florian Lepa, aka ATEQ.

He is a German producer, DJ and a cornerstone of the legendary Giegling collective from Weimar, where he helped define one of the most distinctive sounds in contemporary electronic music.

His sound is hypnotic and driving, moving between minimal, dub techno and house with enveloping loops, deep bass and melancholic, fluid rhythms.

Beyond the club, he’s the co-owner of the label Pale Product, together with the Milan-based duo Orion. Through his collaborative work with artists like Samuel Rohrer and VRIL, he explores ambient and avant-garde jazz, while on stage he remains a regular presence at leading institutions worldwide, from Panorama Bar / Berghain in Berlin and Bassiani in Tbilisi to Sisyphos and Heideglühen.

ATEQ will fill our beloved Masada with his driving sound.

Intimate, dark and hypnotic mix from the Colombian master Zemög last November at Acquario.
The perfect combinations to let you explore the infinite worlds of techno.

We are grateful to have DVS1 back with us for the fifth time in four years!

He is one of electronic music's most respected figures. A true product of the '90s Midwest rave scene, driven by sound, community and integrity.

With releases on Axis, Transmat, Klockworks and his own HUSH and Mistress Recordings and residencies at world-renowned institutions such as Berghain / Panorama Bar, Bassiani, Fuse and Smart Bar, he is the architect behind the iconic 'Wall of Sound' project.

Beyond the booth, his HUSH platform embodies his vision for sound and community, while initiatives like Aslice and Enjoy Right Now push for real industry change.

Enjoy this exclusive moment with the Master taking control of our Amelia booth for a techno set accompanying us into an intense night. Then keep on joining the party at Masada for a special gift: his first house set for us!

See you!

Third date, new ride.
We start at Amelia, then gallop to Masada. DVS1 will play a techno set first and a house set after. Yes, you already read that right. A dream years in the making!
Beside him, Ateq, Essē and Hålbē. And as always, our beloved residents holding the reins.
See you on the dancefloor for this very very very special one.

Gratitude - October 3, 2026.
We followed the hare. Nobody knew where it would lead, it just kept moving, light on its feet, from sunlight into the night, one long run. 🐇

The Altrove crew, with selections that hit exactly where they needed to. Konduku, what driving elegance: a set that made everything else go quiet. And Atomᵀᴹ & Tobias’s live, so monumental it felt like being inside a foundry of sound.
And of course, last but not least, our residents 🤍

To all of you who stayed, jumped and never stopped: THANK YOU.

It's a pleasure to introduce a dear friend of us: EUCA, aka Riccardo Grillo.

He started exploring the world of vinyl in Genoa, his hometown as a cataloguer, counselor and seller in a record store of the city. He later moved to Milan, where he built sincere connections, notably with Masada and its collectives.
At the same time, he co-founded the Komorebi music festival, taking place every year in Vinadio and whose he's a resident DJ.

Now, Riccardo joins Acquario and Amelia to share his music, which is an expression of a deep but at the same time, colorful and fluid journey, characterized by balanced rhythms and elegant blends.

We can't wait to listen to EUCA for our next dive!

We are glad to introduce Louis Glanzmann, at his first time with us.

Ticino-born and now based in Zurich, Glannzman is a resident DJ and co-founder of the collective ‘Altrove’.

With a decade of musical research behind him, he explores electronic music as a space to travel elsewhere and connect on a deeper level.

Drawn by repetition, immersion, and hypnotism, he moves between deep, hypnotic, dub and experimental techno.

Glannzman will take us on his journey at Masada.

It’s a pleausure to welcome two good friends of our community: NIA and Mnl Oneiro.

They are a Swiss duo formed by Nina Gautschi and Manuel Lanini.

Bond by a long-standing relationship, they began playing together with a shared attraction to psychedelic, hypnotic and deeply immersive sounds.

Their vision was shaped by their encounter with Acquario and by the musical research of artists like Claudio PRC and the wider scene around Hypnus Records.

From this common ground, in 2022 they co-founded the collective ‘Altrove’: a community brought together by a shared love for music and immersive dancefloor experiences.

NIA and Mnl Oneiro are going to play for us at Masada.

We are excited to welcome an artist defined by a rare, elegant eclecticism: Ruben Üvez, aka Konduku.

Dutch-born but fundamentally shaped by his Turkish heritage, he translates his ancestral roots into a meticulous sonic signature.

His aesthetic navigates uptempo, polyrhythmic grooves, halftime beats, and smooth, long-drawn blends, seamlessly merging UK bass geometry, early tech house, and mid-2000s Italian techno.

Through seminal releases on crucial labels such as Bitta, Spazio Disponibile, Nous'klaer Audio, and Delsin, Konduku navigates the space between functional grooves and hypnotic soundscapes with sharp precision.

See you at Masada to celebrate a surprising musical ritual!
