DJ Pierre is one of the true originators of acid house and an artist whose influence stretches across the entirety of modern dance music. As a founding member of Phuture, he helped create “Acid Tracks,” the legendary record that introduced the world to the squelchy, iconic sound of the Roland TB-303. Over the decades, Pierre has continuously evolved as a producer and selector, shaping the global house music landscape through projects like Wildpitch and Afro Acid. His sets are absolute masterclasses in dancefloor tension, focused on stretching out raw, hypnotic grooves and taking risks that keep the whole room completely locked in together.

Posthuman have spent years carrying the torch for acid house and underground rave culture without ever treating the music like a museum piece. The UK duo are widely respected not just for their heavy productions and dynamic DJ sets, but also for his long-running I Love Acid parties and imprint, which have introduced a whole new generation to raw club music. His sound seamlessly blends acid, techno, electro, and old-school rave influences into something that feels entirely timeless rather than nostalgic. Whether they are hammering out tough, late-night warehouse tracks or driving deep into psychedelic territory, his sets are fueled by a genuine love for the music’s history and a constant push toward the future.

Wetdogg has become a distinct voice in Detroit’s electronic music scene, building a sound rooted in warped club textures, unconventional rhythms, hazy electronics, and dreamlike vocals. Her album pssssssp... moves through acid, rave, and experimental dance music with a style that feels personal, strange, and instinctive without falling into predictable structures. There’s a strong identity behind her production, balancing tension, humor, and detail without overworking things. For this one, Wetdogg will be bringing a live set centered around her productions and the world surrounding them.

Father Dukes approaches DJing with a sharp instinct for tension, rhythm, and unpredictability. Pulling from techno, electro, acid, and darker corners of club music, her sets feel intentional without becoming overly polished or rigid. There is a constant sense of movement in the way she blends styles together, balancing heavier moments with unexpected turns that keep the room engaged.
