A true pioneer of electronic music for over 30 years, Henrik Schwarz is known for boundary-pushing productions and live performances. His releases on influential labels like Domino Music and !K7 Records have significantly expanded house and techno's sonic palettes, incorporating elements of classical, jazz, and ambient music.

Using AI to generate unique textures and improvised arrangements in real-time, Schwarz has reshaped these genres by pushing their melodic and harmonic complexity in innovative new directions.

Through groundbreaking collaborations like Schwarzmann with partner Âme, Schwarz has redefined live shows with open-format sets improvising across extensive discographies in real-time. Captivating fans and critics globally with his remixes for icons like Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder, Schwarz brings forth fearless experimentation cultivated from sharing stages alongside greats such as Black Coffee, WhoMadeWho, Richy Ahmed, Dixon, Camelphat and more.

Joining this remarkable party and getting the day started is Ukranian born and NYC based Kofman, who has played Danny Tenaglia's STAX party, direct support for Serge Devant, and Loco Dice. 

Another lovely touch to support is Sam O.B., which is the musical project of Sam Obey. Part of the New York underground music scene, the label boss, producer, and DJ has releases on LuckyMe(UK), and Astro Nautico. Additionally, he just released a ten track album which is worth checking out! 



TOO MANY HUMANS NOT ENOUGH SOULS
