Serviceable
A DJ from Katowice with electro in her DNA. Broken beats, a broad spectrum, zero genre pigeonholes. Curator of G-SPOT and HERtz events, which put women behind the decks. Co-creator of Fisherman's Bass Club.
AGENT
A Warsaw MC who blends Polish flow with grime, garage, jungle, and baile funk. Live with a DJ — a club jam session from zero to 180 BPM. Rhymes over every beat.
Angelo Mike
Angelo Mike – an icon of Polish clubbing whose long, hypnotic sets have been captivating dancefloors in clubs and festivals across Poland for decades. Progressive, techno, house, disco – in his sets, genres cease to matter; only good music counts. "If I hear good music, I want to play it," he says, and that is evident in every one of his mixes.
ANNA
She started at her father's club and made it to Coachella. A DJ since she was 14. Remixes for Depeche Mode and Lana Del Rey, the album Intentions with Jon Hopkins, and the latest Future Hearts on Tomorrowland Music. Behind the decks - trance techno. In the studio - introspective silence. Two worlds, one artist.
Apparatus
Sascha Ring is a master of elegance who started with powerful techno and later embraced a range of genres from pop to IDM.
As a member of Moderat and a solo artist, the author of seven albums has always strived to transcend the boundaries between the dance floor and the concert hall. His music explores deep layers of songwriting and a wealth of detail. Recently, Apparat has been gaining recognition for his work in film, theater, and television – the soundtrack to Capri-Revolution received an award at the Venice Film Festival. After six years, he has returned with his solo album, "A Hum of Maybe."
Automatic
15+ years in the game — from Berghain to Unsound, from industrial noise to bass-heavy club chaos. Co-founder of Ciężki Brokat and Radio Kapitał. Queer underground energy, live vocals, and unpredictability as a method.
Bambi Uzi
A lawyer by education, a bass lover by calling. A show on London's Aaja Music, DrumObsession, resident DJ at Schron Poznań and Ravekjavík Festival. Jungle, d&b, garage, footwork — and bassline that literally massages your insides.
Blawan
Emerging from the post-dubstep scene, he achieved success with releases on Hessle Audio and R&S—a dark version of Brandy's "I Wanna Be Down" titled "Getting Me Down" became a massive club hit. His 2012 hit "Why They Hide Their Bodies Under My Garage" established him as a leader of the industrial techno revival. In 2015, he returned with his own label, Ternesc, switching to modular synthesizers, which introduced a new dynamic to his sound. In the fall of 2025, he released the long-awaited SickElixir—his most personal work, created in Berlin, Leeds, Paris, and Lisbon. Combining grief, family trauma, and seismic life changes, the album immerses listeners in a chaotic yet meticulous soundscape that reflects the past and presents a bold vision of the future.
Bliss Kiss
Julia Rover and Celia Crush don't ask if genres can be mixed. Their sound originates from trance, blending with influences from house, tribal, baile funk, acid, breakbeat, and techno. In their sets, they prioritize groove, tension, and rhythm. They combine powerful moments with a light, danceable flow. Energetic, wild, and unpredictable!
BOKKA
One of the most enigmatic bands on the Polish alternative scene – faces hidden behind masks, music that speaks for itself.
They emerged from nowhere in 2013 with the single "Town of Strangers," attracting attention with their cinematic sound and utter anonymity. Their debut album received glowing reviews, including from Pitchfork. They performed at The Great Escape, Reeperbahn, Colors of Ostrava, and Eurosonic, earning music video nominations at Camerimage, SXSW, and the Berlin Music Video Awards. Their fifth album, "White Room" (2025), inspired by corporate aesthetics and liminal spaces, finds the band at their most introspective and cinematic – an emotional, bold sonic language combining nostalgic melodies with futuristic production. They arrive at TNMK just after a European tour supporting Archive.
Busy P
If you're familiar with Justice, SebastiAn, Uffie, or Breakbot, you're familiar with Pedro Winter's work. In his native Paris, Busy P is a symbol of the musical underground.
A former skateboarder and hard rock fan, he accidentally fell in love with techno and house in the late 1980s. He began his DJing career in 1995, and a year later, his infectious energy led him to become Daft Punk's manager. In 2003, he emerged from the shadows and founded the influential Ed Banger Records—the label that introduced Justice, SebastiAn, and other icons of the French Touch. Busy P was one of the first to recognize the potential of the internet in the music industry. After working for Daft Punk, he became Justice's manager. In 2016, he received the Order of Arts and Letters for his significant contribution to France's cultural heritage. Most recently, he played a widely discussed back-to-back with Thomas Bangalter, Fred Again..., and Erol Alkan.
Caletti
UK dubstep, bassline, garage, trance — and an element of surprise in every set. DJ partner of rapper AGNT, Radio Kampus, Tranzyt Podcast. Probably the tallest DJ in Poland.
Puma
Groovetherapy without a prescription. House, disco, UK garage, and old Polish songs given new life. Radio Kampus, Open'er, Audioriver, San Junipero Girls Crew, Pets Recordings. You step onto the dance floor – you leave feeling better.
Dave Clarke
Techno Baron Dave Clarke has remained at the forefront of global techno for over three decades thanks to his keen instincts and unwavering perseverance.
Born in Brighton and shaped by early electronica and 80s club music, Clarke has been creating his own music since 1990. His cult album Archive One (1995) launched a series of releases brimming with relentless techno and futuristic electro—dark and playful at once, yet always coherent and poignant. After Devils Advocate (2004) and the remix compilation Charcoal Eyes (2016), he returned with The Desecration of Desire (2017), featuring Louisahhh. Based in Amsterdam, where he's hosted his own party at the Amsterdam Dance Event for 18 years, Clarke cultivates extraordinary relationships with some of the world's most coveted dancefloors—from Fabric and Tresor to Glastonbury and I Love Techno. He's a timeless pillar of techno, constantly admired by new generations. He represents an underground whose principles can't be bought or sold.
Dictaphone
25 years of unease in perfect form. Brussels, Berlin, Tehran – the sixth album and a quarter-century for the project that has never played it safe. Oliver Doerell began building Dictaphone in 2001. A quarter of a century later, he returns with Unstable – an album that draws from the Belgian art music scene of the 1980s, where minimalist jazz meets musique concrète and post-punk sensibility. Alongside the project's mainstays – Roger Döring's clarinet and saxophone, and Alexander Stolze's spectral violin – the album features more voices than ever before. Among them are Helga Raimondi, the collage artist responsible for the band's visual identity, and Iranian artists from the Berlin diaspora: Kaveh Ghaemi, Ashkan Afsharian, and trumpeter Shahab Anousha. This Brussels-Berlin-Tehran intertwining is no coincidence – Doerell has been connected with the Iranian diaspora in Berlin for almost two decades, and the track "Rattle" from the classic "Poems from a Rooftop" (2012) still circulates in Tehran's underground. The title track "Unstable" is a tribute to Ian Curtis – lyrics based on the setlist of Joy Division's last concert. Over two hundred concerts worldwide, Mutek, Transmediale, Unsound. Dictaphone's music has been featured in BBC films, theatre, and ballet. In June – in Katowice.
DJ Zamocno
Plays vinyl only. 90s and 00s techno, tribal grooves, speed garage, UK hardhouse, jungle techno. Co-founder of Mugshot, resident of Underiolo. 100% for the culture.
Efdemin
Berghain Resident
Phillip Sollmann was born in Kassel in 1974. Even as a child, he loved hitting everything in his path to see how it sounded.
This spirit of discovering new sounds has guided him throughout his career. In addition to his residency at Berlin's Panorama Bar and performances around the world, he has released numerous original productions and a wide range of remixes for Pantha Du Prince, Depeche Mode, Sascha Funke, Tiga, DJ Koze, and Moby. Efdemin is known for his deeply psychedelic and personal approach to house and techno music. He has released numerous singles and EPs on various labels, including three albums on DIAL and his fourth LP, New Atlantis, for Ostgut Ton in 2019. His latest release is the album Poly, released in the fall of 2025.
Ego Death: Aho Ssan & Resina
Where electronics meet the body. Two strong personalities create something that defies categorization. Aho Ssan is a Parisian composer and producer whose music—situated at the intersection of experimentation, electronics, and noise—raises questions about identity, memory, and systemic violence. His albums Rhizomes and Simulacrum earned him critical acclaim worldwide and a permanent place in the programs of major experimental music festivals. Resina is Karolina Rec—a Polish composer and cellist, author of several albums released under the FatCat / 130701 label, whose sound oscillates between electronic intensity, the physicality of sound, and minimalism. Together as Ego Death, they form a duo where Aho Ssan's electronic architecture clashes with the rawness and intimacy of Resina's sound. And after last year's album premiere, Ego Death has become one of the most powerful new phenomena at the intersection of experimental electronics and contemporary, at times radical, composition. Concerts at festivals such as Rewire, Atonal, Unsound, and Lunchmeat confirmed that Aho Ssan and Resina now operate not as a sum of two names or an occasional project, but as Ego Death: a full-fledged band with its own deeply recognizable language.
Erol Alkan
3 decades: rave, house and punk energy!
His rich story reads like mythology: the shy son of first-generation immigrants sneaked out of his room to play indie music to an unforgiving London audience.
He took up the stage in the early 1990s, but his breakthrough came when he founded the legendary club TRASH in 1997, where he served as promoter and resident DJ until its closure at the peak of its power in 2007. Alkan transformed the London club scene, fusing genres through experimentation and freedom. He regularly plays in clubs around the world and at major festivals, often back-to-back—most recently, a collaborative set with Fred Again, Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk, and Busy P made a splash. As a producer, he has worked with Late of the Pier, The Killers, and Duran Duran, and as a remixer for The Chemical Brothers, Hot Chip, Tame Impala, and Justice. He runs the Phantasy Sound label and is a resident DJ on NTS Radio.
Fisz Emade Soundsystem
Rap that doesn't ask for permission. The brothers who defined the Polish hip-hop scene return in an uncompromising format. Fisz and Emade are a duo that has been setting trends for over two decades – not following them. The Soundsystem project is their most uncompromising iteration: an electronic-rap selection that freely balances between improvisation and structure. Mariusz Obijalski will materialize with them on the Amphitheater stage. Interpenetrating forms – from energetic, rap parts to hypnotic, instrumental sound journeys – create a concert experience that cannot be replicated with headphones. Live, raw, unique.
Glass
30 years on Polish dance floors and zero signs of fatigue. From deep tech to progressive house — a veteran who still surprises. Audioriver, Wisłoujście, Nowa Muzyka, Smolna, Big Boat Party, Tokyo, Buenos Aires. Golden Munolud 2022 for his contribution to the development of the Polish club scene. Unfading passion as a method.
Gui Boratto
The São Paulo-born producer, sound engineer, and multi-instrumentalist began his career in the early 1990s, contributing to countless releases for major and independent labels.
Despite a successful career behind the scenes, the creative urge proved too strong, and Boratto began devoting himself to original music. After a series of releases for Plastic City, Audiomatique, and Circle, his breakthrough came with the highly acclaimed Chromophobia (2007) on Cologne's Kompakt label. With five albums to his name, numerous remixes, and productions for Massive Attack, Bomb The Bass, Pet Shop Boys, Goldfrapp, Moby, and Paul Simon, Boratto has established himself as Brazil's most important electronic music export. The artist blends energetic tech house with emotive melodies and spatial depth, becoming renowned for his innovative live performances at iconic venues worldwide.
Guy J
Guy J is a Tel Aviv-based artist whose sets are hypnotic journeys through the spectrum of house, trance, and techno. He founded the cult label Lost & Found, a place where good electronic music exists in its purest form. One of the most important artists of his generation, he opened for John Digweed, played back-to-back with Hernan Cattaneo, and conquered Argentina, a country where progressive house is like a religion. His productions originate in a studio called "The Cave" and reach straight to the heart of the dance floor—because, as he says, "I need every track to be real and honest to my feelings." Alongside Nick Warren and Guy Mantzur, he completes the dream lineup of progressive house lovers.
Guy Mantzur
30 years on the road, one goal!
For over three decades, Guy Mantzur has been shaping the global electronic music scene with his distinctive sound that blends Tech House, Techno and Progressive House.
His music has appeared on Ultra, Lost & Found, Bedrock, Diynamic, All Day I Dream, and Kompakt. He runs the Munich-based Plattenbank Records label (since 2007) and the global brand Moments (since 2019). He is a recipient of the XL Award for Best Underground DJ (2013) and the Walla/Smirnoff Nightlife Award (2018). In 2024, Buenos Aires honored him as Guest of Honor, recognizing his influence as an artist and cultural ambassador. Known for consistency, creativity, and integrity, his career has been a constant journey that combines music with emotion.
Hania Rani: Chilling Bambino
Fresh off winning the prestigious European Film Award, Hania Rani will perform at TNMK in two completely different guises, showcasing the full breadth of her artistic sensibilities. Following the previously announced and instantly sold-out opening concert with the NOSPR orchestra, we are announcing a second project for the MCK main stage: Hania Rani: Chilling Bambino.
Hania Rani's music is as captivating as gravity—its hypnotic power moves the listener involuntarily. The pianist, composer, and vocalist emerged as a nonconformist, fusing classical, jazz, and electronica. Chilling Bambino is her alter ego, a constantly evolving project that explores her love of the Prophet synthesizer and takes the listener on a sonic journey through dark electronics and hypnotic rhythms as Rani lets her imagination run wild.
Hania Rani: "Non Fiction: Piano Concerto in Four Movements" with the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra
Hania Rani will perform her first piano concerto accompanied by the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra. The monumental NOSPR concert hall will become the stage for the inauguration of a festival that for two decades has explored the elusive and enchanting aspects of music.
"Non Fiction: Piano Concerto in Four Movements" is a symphonic piece inspired by the work of Josima Feldszuh – a young composer from the Warsaw Ghetto. Hania Rani intertwines this history with images of contemporary conflicts in Ukraine and the Gaza Strip, examining the coexistence of harmony and chaos. She creates a sonic metaphor for the survival of the human spirit in the face of violence. Hania Rani's musical power lies in combining intimate sensitivity with bold ideas – and it is this combination that fascinates audiences worldwide. A classically trained pianist, vocalist, and composer, she has released over a dozen solo and collaborative albums, as well as music for film, theatre, and art installations. It is in this unique way – with music that combines the intimacy of the piano with the grandeur of a symphony orchestra – that we will open the 21st edition of the festival. This is just the beginning of our announcements – we will soon reveal more surprises for TNMK 2026.
Herbert & Momoko
Matthew Herbert and drummer-vocalist Momoko Gill join forces in a soulful collaboration that moves between dancefloor and introspective moods.
Matthew Herbert and drummer-vocalist Momoko Gill have announced the release of their new album, "Clay," in June 2025. It's a soulful collaboration that deftly moves between the dancefloor and the introspective moods of the early hours. Nimble and honest, "Clay" draws from a diverse range of found sources—from Japanese kotos to basketballs—to give its sound an organic feel. For Herbert, this means treating the world as an instrument: bombs exploding in Libya, horse skeletons, 20,000 dogs, 245 stores. His album "ONE PIG"—tracing the life cycle of a pig from birth to plate—remains one of the most provocative works of electronic music this century.
Hinode Tapes & Hiroki Chiba
Gdańsk-based trio Hinode Tapes will perform at NOSPR in a unique collaboration with Tokyo double bassist and composer Hiroki Chiba, who is coming from Japan specifically for this concert.
An experimental fusion of ambient, free jazz, and post-rock with a fascination for Japanese poetry. Their debut album (2022) reached 5th place in Gazeta Wyborcza's poll, while their second, "Kiki Mori" (Instant Classic, 2024), is extreme minimalism – barely audible drums, sounds of rubbing hands, the buzzing of tape echo. A joint album recorded in Gdańsk and Tokyo with Hiroki Chiba – a bassist who has collaborated with Belle and Sebastian, Jim O'Rourke, and Tomasz Dąbrowski – marks the first such European-Asian cooperation in the careers of both ensembles, featuring specially created visualizations. Organic material where light battles darkness, and zen confronts anxiety. Lineup: Piotr Chęcki – saxophone, electronics; Piotr Kaliński – guitar, electronics; Jacek Prościński – drums, electronics; Hiroki Chiba – double bass, electronics (Tokyo).

Young crew member of WE LECIM and Fisherman Bass Club, producer and DJ from Katowice. From bass bangers through electro and breaks to ambient spaces. His tracks have been played by Om Unit, DJ ADHD and Solid Blake. Jasna 1, Crackhouse, Wisłoujście, Audioriver.

JMSN
One of the most sought-after performers and producers on the international scene. A true leader of the DIY movement.
Detroit-based JMSN (pronounced 'Jameson') is one of the most sought-after artists and producers on the international scene. A true leader of the DIY movement, he has a career spanning over 10 years, eight studio albums, and unforgettable live performances. His talents have been utilized by Kendrick Lamar, Mac Miller, J. Cole, Kaytranada, and Freddie Gibbs. After a 100-date world tour following his album "Soft Spot," he returns with his latest release, "It's Only About U If You Think It Is..."
John Digweed
A legend of the world's dance floors.
A DJ for DJs. Author of the first proper DJ mix compilation, and the first British DJ with a residency at New York's Twilo.
John Digweed is a DJ for DJs. He created the first proper DJ mix compilation ("The Mix Collection" with Sasha), the first British DJ with a residency at New York's Twilo, and has produced remixes for Underworld, Quincy Jones, and New Order. His Bedrock label is a global benchmark for underground producers. His radio show "Transitions," broadcast in 60 countries to 14 million listeners weekly, is number one on Mixcloud. The name John Digweed is synonymous with integrity, ingenuity, and quality in the world of dance music.
Kangding Ray
Composer of the soundtrack to Sirat. Mathematical rhythms meet club energy.
French-born David Letellier has been living and working in Berlin for years, specializing in experimental electronica with a club-oriented sound. His music is full of melodic microstructures, a tangle of atonal sounds, and mathematical rhythms. Few musicians have explored the intersection of techno and experimental music as effectively as Letellier. Since his debut album on the German label raster-noton (2006), he has steadily developed his approach to sound design and the conceptual depth of his releases. Kangding Ray's complex sonic aesthetic pushes boundaries, constantly evolving in his exploration of texture, rhythm, and sound design. He has remixed Martin Gore, Ben Frost, and Battles, and his soundtrack for Sirat showcases his talent in its fullness. The vitality and uniqueness of his music have won him fans worldwide—from discerning avant-garde listeners to dedicated clubgoers.
Kari
Style, bassline, and groove. Minimal deep tech with soul. Garbicz, Las, Wisłoujście, Mystic Creatures... When not playing, she designs event scenography, creates art installations, and curates the visual aspects of music events. On the dance floor, she builds tension. Off it, she builds worlds.
Kippah
16 years behind the decks and zero chance of standing still. Garage, grime, baile funk, juke, kuduro — his sets are a full-scale cardio workout. Bouncing, nodding, sweating. In that order.
Kofi Stone
Birmingham speaks. It's worth listening. A debut album, a tour across three continents, and a voice that lingers. Mawuena Dzotsi – known as Kofi Stone – is a Birmingham emcee who chose the harder path: to write about what's true, not what's clickable. His music stems from the tradition of conscious hip-hop, but the beat selection based on chipmunk soul samples brings to mind early Kanye – timeless, not seasonal. The debut album Nobody Cares 'Till Everybody Does is an intimate reckoning with family, class, and identity. Black Joy – one of the album's stronger moments – confronts the media representation of Black Britons without unnecessary rhetoric, but with the precision of a lawyer and the heart of a poet. In 2025, he embarked on a tour across the UK, Europe, and Australia. He will come to Katowice with a new album, all the flowers have bloomed.
Koza & Kuba Więcek
Contemporary jazz, experimental hip-hop, and metaphysical poetry — all in one album. "Człowiek zwany ciszą" (The Man Called Silence) is the duo's third album, where street rap meets abstract sampling, acoustic instruments, and freestyle. A tribute to modern classics of cinema, literature, and music. Lo-fi nostalgia and the sound of "new classicism" — distance, silence, and detachment from reality.
Lazy1
Polish DMC 2025 Champion in the Open category. A multi-genre journey through global sounds, powerful drops, and technical scratches. She started with breakdancing—and you can hear it in every set. She hosts the show EjDJ on Radio Kampus.
MANOID pres. śūnyatā.exe
Lev Morawski × PXLD feat. Wroblewsky. An audiovisual ritual at the intersection of technology and Eastern spirituality. Algorithm meets the concept of emptiness. The project evolves like a machine learning process — from unstable structures and repetitive patterns towards radical reduction. Sound and image reorganize perception, the boundaries between individual and system dissolve. Not a concert, not a story — a state.
Mihvu
Sound hunter. He digs deep - and you can hear it in every set. Dark Disco, Indie, ufo house, techno, alternative dance music... But most of all, psychedelic, groovy vibes that are harder to name and easier to feel. Grzybowy Piknik is his initiative.
He is a resident of LAS Festival and Tribalanga, playing here and there - in the best Polish clubs, Berlin and London. He likes kittens.
Modeselektor
Berlin's definition of flamboyance. Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary have been shaping the electronic music scene since the early 2000s. From raves on the outskirts of Berlin to the legendary Monkeytown Records label. Genre-melding productions that broke all molds. Iconic Labstyle parties, the emblematic monkey logo, and DJ sets that turn dancefloors upside down. They have just released "Modeselektor Classics Vol. 1" – not remixes, not polishing. A reconstruction. Classics rebuilt from scratch, past and future in the same room. Still moving. Apparat will also perform at Tauron Nowa Muzyka – who knows, perhaps the stars will align for us that night in an unforgettable conjunction.
Monolink
Over a quarter of a billion streams. Burning Man, Tomorrowland, Montreux Jazz Festival. Third album "The Beauty Of It All" released in September 2025.
Monolink is a singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist who fuses guitar music with avant-garde electronic composition, creating a distinctive sound that blends emotional depth and rhythmic expression. His music captivates with a rich palette of tones: from blues and folk, through ambient electronica and house, to melodic techno. Following the success of his albums "Amniotic" (2018) and "Under Darkening Skies" (2021), his latest album, "The Beauty of It All," explores themes of beauty, transience, and human connection, showcasing the fusion of organic instrumentation and electronic innovation in a completely new light. His live performances are transformative experiences combining instruments, soulful vocals, and mesmerizing visuals—immersive soundscapes that resonate deeply with audiences both emotionally and physically. Years of passion and unwavering integrity have made him a valued artist in the world of electronic music.
Nick Warren
You'll recognize this sound anywhere...
You can tell when Nick Warren is behind the console – the perfect club mix of driving percussion and soaring melodicism that floods the dance floor with sound.
One of the first "superstar DJs" of the '90s, a resident DJ at the legendary Cream, creator of the iconic Global Underground series, and remixer for Lana Del Rey, Underworld, and Quincy Jones. Invited by Massive Attack as the official DJ for their American tour, Warren has been captivating clubs and arenas from London to Buenos Aires with his distinctive progressive sound for decades. As A&R for Bristol-based Hope Recordings and owner of the global label The Soundgarden, he cemented his reputation as a giant of electronic music.
Episcopate Ninja
The Slipknot of Polish jazz. Electronics, jazz improvisation, and punk energy – all in one. That's how they describe themselves, and they're right. Ninja Episkopat is a trio with a mission: Patrycja Wybrańczyk, Alex Clov, and Krzysztof Hadrych. They debuted in 2022 with the EP God Save The Queer, and a year later, the full-length All Thoughts Are Bad Thoughts was released by Audio Cave – reviewed on PopMatters, Soundrive, and JazzPRESS. They have played at Jazz Jantar, Soundrive, Slot Art Festival, and Unsound, and internationally – at Berlin's Peppi Guggenheim, Prague's JazzDock, and Dresden's Jazzclub Tonne, where they won second place at Jazzfruit. Their music is a commentary on reality: "The 2020s are a repeat of the 1960s, except we're not seeing a Summer of Love – more like Helter Skelter." Their third, conceptual album is planned for the second half of 2026.
Nooooo.
A Ukrainian DJ and music artist rooted in the scene and community. His work goes beyond music—he creates spaces of freedom and presence, especially for LGBTQ+ and FLINTA people.
Olympics
Baile funk, juke, bass, Miami bass, and whatever she feels at the moment. For her, DJing isn't about playing tracks—it's about sharing energy. Shirt soaked, ass in orbit.
Butter
Rooted in jazz, deeply immersed in hip-hop and street culture, Omasta creates a bold fusion of tradition and innovation.
The name comes from the Krakow dialect and means "fat added for flavor" – their music is dense, saturated with heavy drums, deep bass, and melodic piano, trumpet, saxophone, and flute parts. Since their official launch in February 2024 (a tribute to J Dilla at Paul's Boutique), they have performed at the London Jazz Festival, OFF Festival, Gent Jazz Festival, The Jazz Cafe, and Ronnie Scott's. They have collaborated with Madlib, Aquiles Navarro, Tenderlonious, and Polish free jazz legend Leszek Żądło. Their debut album (Astigmatic Records, 2025) has been featured on the year's lists by artists such as Somewhere Soul and Tina Edwards.
Omasta Block Party feat. Wildchild, Stacy Epps & Believe
Kraków, LA, Atlanta – one stage. This won't be just any concert. Artists are flying in from the USA specifically for this occasion. A block party in every sense of the word. Omasta – a Kraków collective that, within a year, debuted at the London Jazz Festival, Ronnie Scott's, and OFF Festival – invites you to an event not found in any other festival program. Wildchild, co-founder of the legendary Lootpack – a group created with Madlib, a pillar of the Californian underground – will appear on stage. Stacy Epps is an artist from Atlanta whose voice was heard worldwide on the iconic Madvillainy by MF Doom and Madlib. The lineup is completed by Believe, Omasta's regular collaborator. The block party formula signifies freedom and directness: there will be collaborative tracks, classics, premiere collaborations, and hip-hop canon – in an improvised dialogue mode, not a pre-arranged setlist. Omasta is not just a festival project – the name comes from Kraków dialect and means "fat added for flavor." In June, this flavor will take on a transatlantic dimension.

Robag Wruhme
Our closing expert. Fifteen years, zero misses. Groove-maestro from Pampa Records, DJ Koze, four albums, fifth on the way. The festival's final set is always his – and always worth every sleepless hour.
Sas
Acid house, minimal, disco — but not as you remember it. Sas takes classics and retells them differently. Indie dance, funk-boogie, electro-house — sets that have groove, momentum, and something you can't name, only feel. Melodic, but not obvious. Familiar, but not predictable. Co-creator of The Cat Club — a project that takes the joy and carefree spirit of the 70s and serves it with a touch of darkness and decadence. Kato representative!
