Utopia

w/ Helena Hauff, Ambassade, Victor De Roo, Jente Waerzeggers & EMILIJA

Utopia lands in Het Depot. The deepest and most energetic mix of techno and electro and that classic hint of nostalgia bleed into each other. Woven together by a dance floor that knows no stopping and the endless energy of Helena Hauff, Victor De Roo (live), Ambassade (live), Jente Waerzeggers and EMILIJA, the night will guaranteed to be endless.

Helena Hauff

Hamburg-based Helena Hauff represents a sound that hovers between gritty, hard-egded techno and electro. Known for her sets that are just as intense and electrified as futuristic and stipped down, her music is rooted in influences such as acid house, EBM and all things industrial. She's uncompromising, with a sense of unpredictability, developing a blissful chaos in every venue she goes. Our dance floor will be raised to a raging level. 

Ambassade

Distant, cold songs about lost love with a distinct experimental sound and haunting hollow Dutch vocals soaked in reverb make each of their songs instantly identifiable as Ambassade. On stage they explore a wide range of diverse and unusual types of instruments. Detuned voice samples, droned tape loops, DIY metal and found percussion float around and fuels you instantly. A source of creativity that keeps on mutating, that keeps on electrifying your body to dance. 

Victor De Roo

Victor De Roo is as versatile as he is imperceptible. During the week he is a Dutch teacher, at weekends a journalist or producer. His sets are simply made for dancing. A sound that is unconstrained and determined. Always refreshing, never timid. He has released music in various capacities and collaborated on numerous one-hit-wonder projects, such as 'De Nooit Moede' and 'Vanderschrick'. In short, you can expect outrage and heated speakers. 

Jente Waerzeggers

Jente Waerzeggers has been steadily making leaps and bounds in the night scene. As a photographer, musician and DJ, his sets are an extension of his life and his natural pull towards music in all its genres. Constantly collecting music from friends and colleagues and exploring the mix of genres to do one thing: bring what the audience wants. Jente made a name for himself as an active member of Kontakt Group and V23, editor of Not So Difficult Magazine and in a past also known as singer-guitarist of the now disbanded De Nooit Moede. As a warm up for Ambassade he'll be teleporting you with an unknown mutation of post-rock and wave. 

EMILIJA

EMILIJA is a multi-disciplinary creative and fresh face on the electronic music scene. Mirroring her background -Lithuanian by way of London and now Brussels- her energetic sets oscillate between progressive house, trance and heavy breaks, with an emphasis on percussion and sultry groove. Her sound is a steamy collision of '90s sounds and dynamic ravy loops, gravitationally bound together by bass heavy rhythms for an atomic bliss. Keep your eyes open for her.
