The experiment resumes. This time, the focus shifts to sports science — a study of endurance, rhythm, and the breaking point between control and collapse. Expect athletic precision, lactic acid tension, and sounds straight from the lab floor.
On two stages, seasoned lab masters from the UK and Germany as well as local artists will help you reaching new limits with high energy Acid techno and guide your recovery cycles through chill cooldown tunes. Aided by the energizing sounds of the 303, let us awaken the athlete inside you — just make sure your lactic acid stays in check.
The space will transform into a research facility for body and senses, with contributions from test subjects, DJs, VJs, and installation artists interpreting the theme through their own experiments.
⚠️ RATA: high-intensity interval training sets, exploring the limits of acid techno.
💧 LEPO: the cooldown zone, where tempo slows and sound drifts toward experimental recovery states.
LOCATION: Helsinki area UG, easy metro access
TIME: 22 - 7
In the previous acid test, we found anomalies. Now we’re back to study them.

Artist Contribution
We’re still inviting installation artists to join the test. Visuals, and setups that fit the vibe — athletic, scientific, a bit unhinged. Maybe it’s acid experiments, projection data gone wrong, or something we can’t quite define yet.

Ton 303
London aciiiiid, Acid techno, acid tranceDuring the first phase we explore some traditional 2000’s london acid sound, from which we increase the bpm with acid trance-ish influences.
Until we flow towards the last drill, the hydraulic press of the sharpest, fastest and sourest acidic drops of the modern era of 303 – combined with the tight ever-goosebumping classics.

Folded Visuals
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.
For the Monochrome event, she will build an audio-reactive system that blasts monochromatic textures and abstract patterns.
