AnD [live]

Electric Deluxe | Repitch Recordings | Brothers Manchester based duo AnD uses their equipment to the core. This results in hard and unpolished live-sets with a very high 'in your face' level.

De Sluwe Vos

Patron Records | 4 Lux | Soulfood It’s his goal to bring you to a higher state of mind, so just surrender to De Sluwe Vos.

Dj Deeon

Dance Mania | Numbers. | Databass Records Recently some young DJs claimed they invented a new genre: ''Ghetto House''. They are clearly not familiar that this style already existed for years, originated from the windy city: Chicago. Dj Deeon is considered one of the pioneers of this house music style. Selling mixtapes in the parking lot of his neighborhood was the starting point of a big career. Lots of official releases followed, of which many released on the legendary Dance Mania imprint. He became a people's favorite with tracks as “Freak like me” and “2 B Free”.

Egbert [live]

Gem Records | Cocoon Recordings | EC Records Back in the day, his talent was spotted by Rotterdam legend Secret Cinema. Since then Egbert played at major events including Soenda, Awakenings and Time Warp. We're very excited that he is back at our Indoor "Winter Special".

Hunee

Rush Hour Recordings | Ostgut Ton | Dekmantel Hunee brings his positive energy on to the crowd with pure musical joy. His unique touch of soul-induced house will get you up and moving.

Jeremy Underground

My Love Is Underground | Favorite Recordings In todays music industry, it is an exception when a DJ doesn’t produce any tracks and solely focusses on the turntables. Jeremy is a true selector with a strong musical identity and a record bag full of secret dancefloor weapons. We're glad to welcome him again at our outdoor festival.

Joey Daniel

Music On | D-Floor | Memoria Recordings | Material Series Joey Daniel and his 300MPH concept have been a vital part of the Rotterdam techno scene for years. Now his reach is far beyond Rotterdam, as he even joined Marco Carola's Music On label.

Karenn [live]

SHEWORKS | The Green Series Raw, uncompromising techno. That's what Karenn (Blawan and Pariah) produce when they connect their analog gear with a haystack of cables. Last time Blawan proved that he is nothing less than raw Rave material - now it's time to experience Karenn at their finest.

Karim Soliman

Give Soul

Our own Karim Soliman is known for his storytelling house sets. His passion for music has already made an impact on the nightlife of Rotterdam.

Luigi Madonna

Drumcode | Plus 8 Records | Loose Records | Excentric Muzik With loads of releases on labels like Drumcode and Hawtin's Plus 8, Luigi Madonna is here to stay. He totally nailed it during his set at our Easter Edition and we expect nothing less of this guy at the Festival this summer!

Modular Djs

Modular Music Modular DJ's are familiar faces in the Rotterdam house and techno scene. Their broad knowledge of electronic music is proven by countless DJ sets and their forward-thinking events.

Ohana Hana

Obscure house, African percussion and spacy rhythms: the Ohana Hana family melts them into an exciting whole.

Perc & Truss

Perc Trax There's no mercy when Perc & Truss take over. After two memorable sets at our indoor editions we had to bring them back to Rotterdam for our first outdoor festival.

Robert Hood

M-plant | Music Man Records | Epm music Robert Hood (aka Floorplan) is one of the true legends of Detroit Techno, known for his signature minimal style in which he often brings elements of soul and funk. Don’t be mistaken though – this man knows how to deliver a hard-hitting set, so we are proud to have him this summer at the Rotterdam Rave.

ROD

Klockworks | CLR | Drumcode | Figure SPC | Balans Records What's a Rotterdam Rave without ROD? We will probably never know, because Rotterdam's techno icon is a part of our interior.

Sidney Charles

Avotre | Hot Creations | DFTD Influenced by 90’s house, Sidney Charles has everything to teach the younger generation about true house music. At the same time it probably feels like a warm bath for our older visitors. Expect nothing less than funky but hard-hitting house.

Stranger

Self Refelektion | Paling Trax | Monnom Black Stranger has been our resident since the beginning. With his upcoming debut at Berghain & his own label Self Reflektion, this man is certainly one to keep an eye on.

Surgeon [live]

Dynamic Tention Records | Token | SRX | Blueprint Surgeon has been blasting tough techno since 1994. His influence on the scene has been huge, proving that hard sounds can definitely be sensuous and thoughtful too. See what this feels like as Surgeon returns to the Rotterdam Rave for the third time with a raw live set.

The Advent vs Industrialyzer

Kombination Research | Codeworks Records These guys don’t mess around, so don’t expect a calm build-up. From the moment they appear on stage, you will notice them by their full force, high quality techno. The Advent vs. Industrialyzer live is a ‘must hear’ for every raver.

_Tommy Four Seven

CLR | Electric Deluxe | Stroboscopic Artefacts | 47 Tommy is definitely a friend of the family. He evolved from a resident at club Fire in London to one of the main acts in todays techno scene and performed at multiple Rotterdam Raves in the past. His sets never disappoint, so this guy needs to be on the Festival bill.

Wouter S.

44bass | Hot Haus Recs DJ, producer and 44BASS labelboss Wouter S. is known for his punching kicks and dirty basslines. His energetic set at the 'Closing 2015' is the reason to have him back.
