The evolution of the series
The idea
Honor the local legend.
A series dedicated to the heart of Amsterdam techno: the local artists who shaped its sound. One night, one person, the space and time to fully express their craft. Each edition is a deep personal journey through sound, all night long. A celebration of the artists, the music, and the community. We all deserve this journey.
The room
360° · booth in the middle of the floor
Speakers overhead. Lights on the radial edges. The front-row is everywhere at once. No corners, no echo, just clarity that flips the usual concert hierarchy. However you move, you are part of the instrument. Stay as long as your heartbeat syncs to the bass. When the final note fades, the walls still feel like they are spinning. Sound engineered to the second. Calibration up to ten hours.

From the floor
Written independently after the first night
“What a fucking epic party this was. It has been a while I haven’t experienced such a special club experience, with happy, energetic and SMILING people all across the dance floor.”
“We were surprised by an impeccable circular set up, with Thom in the middle of the room. The usual bass-heavy front was gone. Everyone was getting the right energy no matter where they stood.”
“This night I have a feeling he stepped up into a legend level, playing an impeccable and spellbinding 9h set.”
“Loved the sound quality and the set-up with the DJ in the middle of the room.”
