If you are into techno music, you may have already come across one of D.A.V.E. The Drummer’s records.


Hailing from London’s illegal warehouse party scene that exploded in the 90’s, DJ & producer D.A.V.E. The Drummer started the label Hydraulix in 1998 as an output for his own production ideas. The label intended to bridge the gap between the acid techno of the previous productions of D.A.V.E. and a darker style of techno that he was experimenting with in the studio.

Hydraulix made some big waves in the hard techno scene throughout the 2000’s and is still going strong. Recent music from D.A.V.E. reflects a shift toward a darker, stripped back techno sound, while the label is taking on board fresh young artists as well as releasing tracks by seasoned Hydraulix regulars, still hitting the top spots in the Beatport charts. Both D.A.V.E. and Hydraulix have won the respect of the techno scene from international UG audiences to professional DJs.

If we were in the tropics, the sun would be rising. Luckily we’re in Finland and what we need is more bass. If you like your head going boom boom and your feet going tchick tchack AND you are still awake be prepared for a non-vomitive electro roller coaster that could only be described as: yes.

As a prominent member of Entropy and Station 303, aga.2cr5 has seen both sides of underground. With years of djing and event organizing, he has gained a deep understanding on what works on the dance floor.

Based in Turku, Ossi Iris steps into a new musical chapter with their latest project, Gender. Formerly recognized as Softie for their ambient and techno productions and Florall for their energetic grime and deconstructed club DJ-sets, they present a new rave-focused alias, Gender. This project is a sonic exploration influenced by electro, breakbeat, and the innovative Bristolian fusion of techno and bass music. The result is a captivating blend of hard-hitting drums, deep bass, and ear-tingling effects. Gender represents their fresh perspective, creating a space where rave culture meets a fusion of dynamic soundscapes.

Drawing from a mix of genres with a somehow dark take, electro gets combined with dark italo, EBM, acid, breakbeat and techno in a journey of sounds and beats.

Live electronic music for people to enjoy
Techno from space
Long time member of Hytky and Entropy

Rhythmic noises, dark atmospheres and lots of sweat. Since 2011.

Topolorgy has been a stable figure casting experimental shades on the underground techno scene in Helsinki for close to a decade. Their cross-genre sets submerge deep in to the bizarre depths of the mind, balanced with occasional sceneries of light in between. From their performance you can expect a profoundly agitating bassy treatment with diverse influences from around the weirdest corners of the electronic music world. Topolorgy is also known as an underground party organizer as a part of HYTKY collective with a long history of DIY event organizing with anarchistic, anticapitalistic and queer-feministic values.

Pure intentions from a broken self. Experimental and bass music mainly from the UK.

Nokkonen and Kuraattori were stung by elektro bees around year 2017. Since then their love for electronic music has deepened and widened with all things breakbeat in its core. Besides behind the decks, the duo can also be seen on the organizing side of underground parties.

Nokkonen b2b Kuraattori is a journey whose end is always unknown even for the players themselves, though certain elements remain immutable. Abysmal beats, ragged rhythms, moving melodies, and above all, a relentless groove that will carry you away - at times to the far reaches of the cosmos, and at times into dystopian technological futures.

I play live techno with a modular synthesizer, drum machine and DIY electronic instruments.
My biggest influences are early 1990's techno and experimental electronic music.

The electronic music polyglot Desto found electronic music making in 1993 and has been known as Desto since 2006. His career spans from shows around the world in squatted bomb shelters to London’s Fabric and recordings to numerous international record labels, not to mention a plethora of side projects.

Desto’s Signal Life Show has thus far brought together tempos and genres as well as international labels and producers for a respectable 170 episodes. Desto draws from chaos, juxtaposing Finnish, UK, and Dutch rave mechanics with functional noise and ambient or for instance modern Ugandan or Chinese club music.

Experimental electronic dancehall meets `93 Dutch hardcore and global rhythmics combine in a kaleidoscopic liminal space forming a new cohesion without overlooking new material from Desto and the Signal Life collective.

Has played other people's music and actively participated in organizing electronic dance music events all around Finland since the early 1990s.

Biga Rane fell in love with breakbeat hardcore in the early 90's with SL2, The Prodigy, Acen etc. and that feeling remained as hardcore evolved into jungle/drum 'n bass. He started DJing in 1997 and can't even begin to describe the happiness music has brought him over the years.

In E30V he'll be going through the breakbeat evolution from about 1992 until 2003. His wish is that through these tunes, he can share with you the same joy, friendship, and excitement he has felt over the years. ❤

Michael Bräuninger, aka Misanthrop, is an electronic music producer, DJ and label-owner (Neosignal Recordings) from Heilbronn, Germany.
With more than 15 years of constant work on his own musical and artistic visions in the studio (both audio and video), Germany’s Misanthrop is no stranger to the international Drum & Bass scene at all. He got caught up by the dark sounds and menacing beats of ‘drum and bass’ in the early nineties, when he decided to produce his own tracks under the moniker Misanthrop; a name that, in his point of view, gave him the freedom to use music as a medium to express personal experiences of human interactions and social criticism.

From humble beginnings in the underground scene, Clippin's love and passion for bass has led him to an ever-going pursuit for more physical experiences of sound. Passion grown profession, his influence today as a sound engineer is heard by thousands of club and festival goers every year.

Stepping up in the spotlight, his DJ sets are known for their high energy and relentlessness, reflecting the fighting spirit within. The goal is singular, to have fun.

Jump into the realm of relentless breaks, rolling basslines, and aetherial synth pads strictly at 170 bpm. Expect reflections of the 90s jungle to DnB sounds of the early 2000s, without forgetting the breakcore flavored jungle sounds of the modern era.

Jekkuv started his DJ activities not long after joining the Entropy back in 2018. After five years of actively organizing parties, DJing, and dancing, he is ready to enchant the crowd with the very special blend brewed over the years.

noMad rooted in and has risen from Entropy soil, the ground in which she found her output. Her essence is described by the artist name itself: a wanderer, a searcher who constantly seeks what has already been found.
As a performer, her music is loud, fast, throbbing-heart bass, at times silly. noMad wishes nothing but for her audience to go through a genuine experience of playfulness, and live through the constant beauty of change.

Mary Young is a DJ, radio host and multidisciplinary artist. You can find her playing diligently in the booths and on the dancefloors of Helsinki's clubs - or running dressed as a rabbit around Kontula. Mary is part of a UK bass club London Zoo Helsinki.

She’s a trusted herald of dad jokes. In case you’re a fan of those, you should check out her monthly show ’Head High’ on IDA Helsinki radio – quality music & awkward laughters guaranteed!

In her DJ sets Mary Young often combines UK bass together with the deepest house, breaks & tasty percussive sounds. She enjoys her music as filthy, bassy and dark yet playful.

I've been DJ'ing since 2001, starting with a collection - given to me by a friend - of ten records that included house, drum and bass, deep house, ambient, trance, and breaks. When I realized those records didn't mix with each other, I started building collections within each genre as I was able, focusing largely on house, trance, and drum and bass. As my mixing, style, and tastes evolved, so did my record collection. The nice thing about having a diverse collection and eclectic taste is that what I play depends on what the person before me played and what the audience is enjoying. I don't always know what I'm going to play for you, but I'll do my best to make sure you have a good time hearing it.

Redefining served as chilled, music with vibe for the vibes.

Music lover and underground party geek, Jenny loves to mix and match current crushes to her all time faves and share them with any crowd.
She loves things deep, dark and hypnotic but equally enjoys more playful, popping sounds and has a sweet tooth for the breaksy, bass-heavy end of the pool, too.

Raised in the Tampere underground and these days active in the Helsinki scene, as well as a member of the Cult of Peculiar Sounds collective. Interested in good music among good people behind the decks, on the dancefloor and while organising parties. A variety of grooving house sounds make Olmi slither.

Doesn’t know small talk – only speaks about music.

Leading synths and obscure melodies.

Kallio-based Uha is a DJ who knows her way around the bright and playful, as well as the deeper, progressive, even meditative dance floor action. Lately her sets have been navigating into more techno- and electro-focused zones, while always retaining that idiosyncratic sonic palette she has rocked public and underground dance floors with since 2018.

PETITION TO BAN PAIN FONDA

Pain Fonda playing what can only be described as cold-blooded NASTY bass music – with NO regard to GENRE – has been causing uncontrollable, gyrating hip movements and inexplicable whole body dampness in unsuspecting partygoers. 120–170 bpm? WHat’s next, ANIMALS DJ’ing?? It’s time we put this artist back underground!

House music from your local homeboy: I am honoured to be closing the Taju stage with some soulful piano melodies, groovy bass-lines and the phattest claps to leave you with the feeling of being in love. Known for being unknown - that’s all I want to say and everything you need to know!

Folded Visuals takes the viewer to a secret garden after dark.
Visions of lakes, ferns and soft moss blend into mysterious signals and a splash of circuit. Whispers and faraway wanders, restless dreams of a long lost drone.

A prominent VJ in the Helsinki club and underground scene since 2013, she has performed at festivals and events from Kazakhstan to Greenland. Currently resident VJ in Kaiku and organiser of Aavistus Festival.

A visual b2b match forged by fire: unprecedented synergy born through common fascination for materializing sound in new plane of existence, abstraction, nature & cats.

Tenaladyboy has been involved in the music scene for the whole of the new millenia creating anything from chamber music to dreamy installations with lights. His latest ventures create novel type of reactive video art that has strong emphasis on 3d modeling. In the e30v, there will be loads of custom material, vfx and immersive experiences.

Twilight Courier is a visual accompanist, mixing your techno fantasies. The projection of a spectral shadow dancing in the electric haze of the subwoofers.

Especially dark atmospheric music like black metal and techno fill my heart with joy. This mood is also expressed by my visual artworks (see link). My interest lies in a rather rough, noisy, unclean, and natural-seeming yet minimalist style. I like to use a monochrome palette (or just one with some but few colors) to focus more on structural elements.

Respectively, Indigo considers the Entropy 20 years celebration at Ääniwalli in 2013 to be his first official VJ gig.

Every event and moment is unique and there is no formula for a successful gig. Indigo trusts in the power of flow and often sets out to build his visual set completely improvising.

VJ Dinavisk uses generative visuals to immerse the viewer in esoteric sci-fi worlds.

Atlas is a faceless and timeless voyager, bound to carry the weight of a world filled with love, pain, life, and death. In every performance, a distinct experience is crafted, weaving together artificial and human emotions. Their art is an interplay of horror and beauty, a dance between the real and the imaginary, and the merging of flesh and metal. Each creation is ephemeral, unique, and impactful.

Through the use of ever-changing techniques such as generative art, AI, live mixing, glitching, and simulations, Atlas's expression continually evolves, capturing the transient nature of both the visible and the invisible.
