Kabinett [CO], Walentin Pauer, Nek, Duro Disco w/ Vast Solo & Kosta 18+

On Friday, August 21, our two distinct hemispheres of sound share the same nocturnal spirit. The Berlin Room delves into the cavernous and the cosmic, while the Front Room ignites with the raw, analogue pulse of disco in its most potent and floor-ready form. Join us to start your weekend right.

BERLIN ROOM

KABINETT [CO]

Kabinett comes from Bogotá’s ever-shifting underground, where his work as DJ, producer, label head and curator has made him part of the city’s alternative disco and house fabric. Classically trained and shaped by the electronic scene from an early age, he brings a wide musical vocabulary to the dancefloor. 

His releases span Glitterbox, Partyfine, Midnight Riot, Duro and Prins Thomas’ Internasjonal, while his Kaputt.wav label continues his role as a careful curator with an international catalog (home to Curses, Iñigo Vontier and Theus Mago, just to name a few). Expect eclectic disco and house, played with true conviction.

WALENTIN PAUER

Walentin Pauer has built his sound somewhere between darkness, experimentation and an instinctive understanding of the room. A Control Club resident, he has played everywhere from Kater Blau and Renate to Crack Bellmer and La Rotonde Stalingrad. His approach is deliberately hard to pin down: restless productions, sharp selections and enough room-reading skills to keep things strange without losing the dancefloor.

NEK

Control Club's cosmic disco maestro, Nek fuses alternative dance, dark disco, electroclash, house and italo into sets timed for takeoff. Balearic warmth meets driving techno and uplifting house, a genre-blending journey through dream-disco pulses and nostalgic highs. Refined, approachable, and rightfully moves the room forward.

FRONT ROOM

DURO DISCO W/ VAST SOLO & KOSTA

Duro Disco began in Bucharest in 2013 as a project devoted to the many afterlives of disco. Now a duo of Vast Solo and Kosta, the project continues to explore the space between disco edits, house, electro and techno. Over the years they have taken that sound around Romania, developing a distinctly local take on dancefloor music that values groove, character and the pleasure of digging a little deeper.
