ctrl NIGHTS: François X [FR], Walentin Pauer, Basstien, Baron P. & Corvin 18+

François X brings his uncompromising vision to Room 1 on May 16, as raw emotion meets hypnotic rhythms in a ground-breaking night that promises to push and connect. Joined by Walentin Pauer and Basstien as supporting acts, stillness becomes physically impossible. 

___________

FRANÇOIS X

François X stands as a pivotal force in modern techno, blending high-velocity club energy with emotional depth. This French visionary emerged from Paris's underground, where his residency at Concrete shaped his distinct sound—merging raw physicality with hypnotic rhythms. His performances at Berghain, Fabric, and Awakenings have established him globally. 

François's work honors Black American electronic heritage while embracing European sound design innovation. Through releases on MDR and BPitch Control, his 2018 debut album "Irregular Passion," and his XX LAB platform, he continues breaking boundaries. His latest project, "Straight Edge Society" (2025), reflects his commitment to experiencing music in its purest form. His journey is an inspiration to break free from rigid boundaries, proving that techno can be both uncompromising and expansive.

WALENTIN PAUER

A cartographer mapping sound territories where darkness meets light, Walentin Pauer’s creativity lays in restlessness. Honed through Control Club residency, this has evolved into uncanny room-reading alchemy that preserves dancefloor integrity. From Bucharest to Berlin's Renate, Paris's La Rotonde, and beyond, Pauer is moved by an experimental ethos that refuses stagnation.

_________

BASSTIEN

Bucharest's sonic instigator Basstien crafts neural pathways between schranz intensity and industrial precision. His hard techno sets are mathematical, yet primal. They build spaces where tension accumulates before collapsing into cathartic release. Neither warehouse concrete nor open-air expanses can contain his kinetic urgency. 

Following an epic display of laid-back forces, Room 2 sees the return of a well-seasoned duo: Baron P. & Corvin.

________

BARON P.

Baron P.'s decades-long musical path extends beyond mere selections—in his sets true gems resurface alongside tomorrow's classics. Since 2006, the CABAL and Sunday Scoop architect has refined the art of tension cultivation, crafting narratives where deep house evolves into euphoric release points.

_______

CORVIN

What Corvin does best is to transcend categorization by dissolving boundaries between disciplines. His approach mirrors his celebrated spatial designs—identifying invisible connections between seemingly disparate elements. In his DJ sets, jazz ephemera intersects with subterranean discoveries, creating environments where each track exists in perfect conversation with the next.

At this moment, we do not have any future performances scheduled.
