DIØN heads to New York on January 18th for a night built for the harder, faster edge of techno. He takes over The Roof at Superior Ingredients alongside Ammara, Crossbow, and Adam Meliani, bringing together a lineup rooted in high-energy rave influences and driving club pressure. The space matches the intensity with skyline views and a retractable glass ceiling — ideal for crisp winter nights while keeping the room enclosed, focused, and charged.

Over the last few years, DIØN has become one of the most recognized figures in the new wave of high-pressure rave-influenced techno. His early releases on Autektone Dark, Eclipse Recordings, Tektones, and Kuda Audio put him firmly on the map, with tracks like “XTC” breaking into the Beatport Hardcore/Hardtechno charts and pulling global attention toward his sound.

Speaker Freaker

In 2022 he launched his imprint Rough Material, which has since become the home for his releases, drops, and full creative output. His shows have only grown larger, including sold-out marathon sessions at Thuishaven and standout festival appearances across Europe. Support from Amelie Lens, Oliver Heldens, Fatima Hajji, and Sara Landry — who has also collaborated with him in the studio — has pushed his momentum even further.

Joining the party is AMMARA, a London-based DJ and producer known for fast, rave-driven sets that blend hard house and happy hardcore with touches of trance, techno, and pop-led hooks. Her sound is built for high-energy dance floors and has quickly set her apart as a rising name in the UK scene.

She broke through after sending Acid Fantasy to Patrick Topping, leading to the release of the Acid Fantasy EP on his Trick label and regular appearances at their events. Since then, she’s released music on Ministry of Sound, collaborated with Will Clarke on Techno Tree, and dropped Honey Child, which featured a remix from hard house staples Klubbheads. She was also named a BBC Radio 1 Future Star, reinforcing her growing profile.

Ammara’s momentum has carried her onto major stages including Creamfields, Parklife (Main Stage), Warehouse Project, Amnesia Ibiza, and an Ibiza Rocks residency, alongside a DJ Mag live stream. Known for her energetic presence behind the decks, she continues to build toward a packed run of releases while shaping the visual and musical direction of her project.

Also on the lineup is CROSSBOW, a techno DJ and producer whose sound balances weight and atmosphere through driving kick drums, expansive low end, and evolving synth work. Her productions sit between power and space, shaped by grooving percussion, dramatic riffs, and carefully controlled tension.

She’s released music on respected labels including Codex, Set About, and IAMT, steadily building a catalog that’s earned support across the global techno circuit. Outside the studio, Crossbow has shared the stage with artists such as Ben Klock, Pleasurekraft, Eli Brown, Julian Jeweil, Marco Faraone, Ramon Tapia, Monoloc, Julia Govor, Lady Starlight, Sophia Saze, Pawlowski, and Agent Orange, among others. Local talent, Adam Meliani is also on the bill!

This Brooklyn date marks another key moment following his explosive U.S. run. Expect speed, muscle, and unfiltered power from start to finish as DIØN brings his signature sound to the rooftop — shielded from the cold by glass but carrying the temperature you’d expect from one of techno’s most high-octane performers.
