Macro is taking over the garden & hosting club floor main slot w/ Oliver Ho.

Berlin's Macro label has one of electronic music's most inriguing catalogues, ranging from superstars like KiNK and Peter Kruder, to genre-defining bands like Elektro Guzzi and KUF, to the off-kilter techno of L'estasi Dell'oro or Raudive.

London's *OLIVER HO* is a fixture of the UK techno scene since the early 1990s. As Raudive he has released two programmatic albums for Macro, and has recently also added the Broken English Club alias to his activities.

*STEFAN GOLDMANN* has produced a string of "tracks of the year"-earning club hits throughout the last decade, with stints at Perlon, Cocoon & others before founding Macro. Besides clubs & festivals from Buenos Aires to Shanghai he's performing special projects at venues ranging from Hamburg's Kunsthalle to Kyoto's Honen-In Temple. In Berlin, he's mostly associated with Berghain, for whose flyer program he writes a column and DJs at Panorama Bar's sunday sessions.

Besides running Macro, *FINN JOHANNSEN* works for techno institution Hard Wax and flexes wild renegade mixes of hot vinyl in some of the smartest dance joints across Berlin and Europe – spanning from disco to New York house to UK broken beats to banging Acid – out of his 3-truckloads-heavy record collection.

The real wildcard & special guest here is Sofia's finest, *STEFAK*, who graces our capital for the 3rd time. StefaK is something like the DJ beta-tester of the unreleased tracks of his mate, Macro artist and live set wizzard – KiNK. He's been rocking the more forward-leaning floors of his hometown in anti-cyclical fashion over the last decade, i.e. when the mainstream played tech house and disco edits, he championed UK bass stuff, and now when some still think neotrance is kind of acceptable and 'of now', he's kicking 'em in the teeth with some sweet techno, deep and with a bottom and some stylistic spread left and right, and most of all, with some dignity. Which doesn't mean he won't kick you in the teeth in the first place. And, naturally, you'll still be grinning. The guy's genius selection and laser skills have secured him stage slots at the Horizon & Meadows In The Mountains festivals, and a residency at a Sofia party he runs together with Stefan Goldmann at Studio EW. Seriously recommended!

Hosting the main floor with Oliver Ho are Suicide Circus regulars Mary Jane & Bombilla.
