ROTE8 presents: GEISTFREI (GER)

GEISTFREI plays techno that takes its time. Heavy low-end, hypnotic grooves and melodies that actually land, building slowly until the whole floor is locked in. The Munich artist came up playing forest raves and abandoned buildings, and that shows in every set: raw, close and immersive. They've since played some of Europe's most respected clubs and started their own label, RAUM Records. Now they're making their Toronto debut with an extended 3 hour set. Joining GEISTFREI, will be Torontos own CRISTI:ANA, her sets are built around pressure, repetition, and long-form structure. Groove is used functionally, prioritizing continuity and control over peak-driven dynamics. Known for his electrifying sets and a sound that blends hard kicks with infectious grooves, Szikra brings an energy that transcends the booth, connecting with crowds with an instinct for sonic journeys.
