RA Tickets
For the second edition of the season, we are reuniting with Parisian collective HORS-SOL for a celebration of dance music history and exploration of influences that connect generations in club culture.
Kicking off in the Garden, the legendary Daniele Baldelli – massively influential DJ and pioneer of the cosmic sound – joins local hero Budino and the mighty Anatolian Weapons for a journey through tripped-out disco, dubby techno, Italo, house, and things that defy description.
Baldelli, one of dance music's greats, rewrote the rules of DJing in the late '70s and early '80s through his residencies at Italian clubs Baia Degli Angeli and Cosmic, mixing psychedelic rock, krautrock, African rhythms, dub, and psychedelic disco in a way that had never been done before. He paved the way for future generations to question genre boundaries and set the bar for unpredictability and innovation, shaping an entire movement that is very much alive today.
In the night, Proxima label head Audrey Danza joins HORS-SOL founders Jolly & Lastvuska on the X Floor, along with Hypersoft’s TPR, DJ TEETH, and Bambi – the young French DJ who is a resident of both collectives – until late on Sunday morning. This is set to be the fourth collaboration between our two crews, based on personal connection and and a shared vision of connecting like-minded music communities throughout Europe and beyond. HORS-SOL are that rare collective with their hearts and heads in the right place, leading their scene in the right direction with positivity and love. They’ve got something truly special going on in Paris: come and check it out for yourself.
On the O Floor, we present the second in our series of all night long showcases, this time from one of the most pivotal figures in Berlin house and techno history – Nick Höppner. The Panorama Bar resident and former Ostgut Ton label manager will be touching down for a special extended techno set. Get ready for a masterclass in versatility and technique from one of the best in the game.

Garden (14:00-22:00)
Few people have left a mark on dance music history quite like Daniele Baldelli. A pioneering force in the evolution of Italy’s distinctive Afro/cosmic sound—what we now call cosmic disco—Baldelli shaped an entire movement during the late '70s and early '80s. His legendary residencies at iconic Italian clubs like Baia Degli Angeli and later, Cosmic in Lake Garda, cemented his reputation as one of the most innovative DJs of his time.
At Baia Degli Angeli—a club often thought of as Italy’s Studio 54—Baldelli began taking his cues from the highly influential residents Tom Sison and Bob Day, mixing imported disco records, a bold and daring proposition in the Italian scene at the time. A technical perfectionist, Baldelli was known to privately test hundreds of tracks for a single transition. Here, he started to experiment with playing multiple styles of music in his sets, but it was at Cosmic, the legendary Lake Garda club, where Baldelli truly broke the mold: mixing psychedelic rock, krautrock, African rhythms, dub and tripped-out disco–often at the wrong speed—his sets were unpredictable, trippy, and totally original, defining the warped, otherworldly vibe he became synonymous with, and redefining the art of DJing in the process.
One of dance music’s greats and a true living legend, don’t miss him making a rare appearance in Berlin along with Budino and Anatolian Weapons in the Garden.
Listen to his legendary tapes here and check out an interview with the master on Electronic Beats.
X Floor (22:00-10:00)
Hypersoft, HORS-SOL and Macadame resident Bambi has made a name for herself over the past three years thanks to her nuanced, cosmic sets fueled with trance, dub, and deep techno influences. Beyond the decks, she also promotes safer party spaces within the French initiative Reinvent The Night, and contributes to French reflexive laboratory Au-delà du club (Beyond the Club) through their collaborative zine Flashes: words and images to reinvent the night. Bambi’s apparent candor and sensitivity give way to impressive skills; her progressive sets—sprinkled with deep grooves and irresistible trance synths—never disappoint.
O Floor (00:00-06:00)
At the beginning of the millennium, Nick Höppner found a creative home in Berlin, where he curiously and skillfully explores and enriches the musical spectrum of Berlin's nightlife. He is considered one of the cornerstones of today's house and techno scene. Whether through his regular sets at Berghain's Panorama Bar, his music productions, his extensive DJ tours or his creative involvement and management of the Ostgut Ton label, Nick stands out as a unique and dedicated personality in today's electronic music world.
Given his pivotal role in guiding Ostgut Ton through its strongest and most influential years, Nick's next step seemed like a logical progression: Höppner founded his own label, Touch from A Distance. What drove Höppner's passion in the beginning - working off the beaten track and a high degree of independence - is still his driving force today. Nick's record label is a reflection of this, as is his "The Little Finger Show," which he launched at the end of 2021 for the Berlin community radio Refuge Worldwide. Here, he presents a wide range of musical styles, from club-oriented sets to more experimental explorations and psychedelic rock, all while cultivating his love for his favorite medium: radio.
Additionally, since 2022, Höppner has mentored a series of DJ workshops to help future DJ generations get started while promoting a transgenerational exchange that Nick is particularly passionate about.
Late 2024 also saw the release of the debut album "The Big Melt" by H.A.N.K. on Music From Memory's sub-label Second Circle. This is a collaboration between Höppner and Alex Kassian, where both pursue their love for krautrock, ambient, and new age away from the dancefloor.

We are a queer collective, label and club night based in Berlin, focused on electronic music, underground club culture and the communities who create and sustain it.
We believe in collective agency. Dance music was never supposed to be about profits and self-interest; it has always been about collective strength, community and empowerment.
Dance music culture owes its existence to LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. Those same communities continue to innovate, produce, and sustain it today, with the same values of openness, acceptance and freedom that have always been its cornerstones. It’s imperative for all of us to know this history. We stand proudly as a queer collective, and try to carry forward those same values and return to the spirit of dance music culture before it splintered into the mainstream and rigidly defined micro scenes of today. Our parties are for everyone. Dance music should be a space where barriers are broken down.
We envision a queer future that’s inclusive, open, and friendly, fostering a community where everyone feels welcome – because what binds us together is something deeper than our gender or sexual identities. Common values of genuine open-mindedness, generosity, respect, empathy and solidarity, and connecting it all, a deep love for music – that is club culture. It is, more than anything, a way of being in and looking at the world.
Our plan from the start has been simple: to concentrate on music and contribute positively to the scene and community around us. We want to do whatever we can to lift up everyone in the process, including people who may never come to our parties or know anything about us. We firmly believe that we, and all of our collective wellbeing, is deeply interconnected.
Dance music does not exist in a vacuum.
These are the values that inform everything we do.
For the duration of our S/S25 season, we are raising funds for Berlin grassroots organisation The Dolls: a self organised, DIY, and participative space open to everyone who identifies as trans femmes*.
The Dolls is run by a team of 7 people with the support of 20 volunteers. They work to provide a safer space for all transfem communities in the city, as well as to provide direct support for the most vulnerable members: for example, those experiencing homelessness, incarcerceration, or refugee status. For 3 years, they have operated on community support and donations from the participants, as well as public funds from Berlin’s anti-discrimation budget, which is about to be reduced drastically through the government’s new austerity measures. These cuts are set to disproportionately impact several of the capital’s most vulnerable communities, and abolish inclusion and diversity programmes in culture.
The house is based on sharing knowledge, skills, and material resources, learning and unlearning from each other, fighting isolation and being with one another: standing together in solidarity.
Activities range from hanging out to gossip, sharing experiences and tea, info and solidarity, workshops, discussions and direct solidarity practice. Food, a clothing swap and community IPL machine are also available. The Doll house is not open for cops or military, it is anti borders, anti racist and anti capitalist.
The Dolls is hosted by Casa Kuà every Sunday from 16:00-20:00. The first Sunday is BIPoC Dolls only.
