Stand out artists include X CLUB., the Australian duo whose industrial-tinged club sets have been turning heads across Europe, and Chloe Caillet, a genre-bending selector and producer with a growing international profile. They’re joined by fast-rising Berlin-based favourite Marlon Hoffstadt and UK house standout Max Dean.

The first round also features an impressive lineup of breakthrough artists and returning favourites including Kolter, Nadia Summer, Rossi, Paige Tomlinson, and sim0ne. High-energy acts like Obskur, Omar+, Jamback, and Paso round out the initial reveal, with more artists expected to be announced in the coming months.
