LES APÉROS INDUSTRIELS: 10 YEARS

Part time punk…part time funk!

After dragging his Nun Chaku across numerous stages around the globe with improbable and obscure Belgian groups, Johnny Guerrero, the "Elvince" of post-punk and dub, is back on the Rockerill stage... Hate & War!

SLOKS! Primitive garage-punk, desperate no-wave, Turin-based rock'n'roll combo. Tony Machete on drums, Ivy Claudy on screams/percussion, Buddy Fuzz on guitar. They get straight to the point with edgy, raw songs, a dirty sound, and noisy lo-fi excursions. Bizarre rock'n'roll built on a sick, abrasive, totally out-of-control voice. During the 2020 pandemic, they recorded a new album, "A Knife in Your Hand," released in September 2021 on Voodoo Rhythm Records!

The name Vintage Crop comes from a poster depicting a British racehorse. Indeed, this Australian quartet from the vibrant city of Geelong has been galloping successfully on the garage-punk scene since 2017 with their cassette "TV Organs." A few albums later, the band stops by Rockerill to present their new album, "Kibitzer." Ten tracks that tackle powerful messages such as identity, resilience, and acceptance—serious subjects, then, but delivered live with the punk energy that has characterized the band since its inception.

Elox & Axel Baldi will be providing the warm-up in the forges from 4:00 PM with a Melodic Techno set!

An organizer since the late 90s and a DJ for over 20 years, these are Globul's two great passions. His journey began in the late 70s with the discovery of artists like Pierre Henry, Marvin Gaye, but especially the enigmatic group Kraftwerk. The die was cast! This was followed by a passion for the entire new wave, punk, and industrial generation, through artists such as The Clash, Tuxedemoon, Grauzone, Front 242, Nitzer Ebb, and Neon Judgment. It was at this time that he began hosting numerous parties and working on several local radio shows. In the late 80s, he went to Spain where he held residencies at various clubs in San Sebastian and Santander. His sets are known for being varied and heavily influenced by disco, acid, tech, and Detroit sounds—an eclectic mix of old school and new school, deep tech, and tribal rhythms. His pleasure lies in being in total harmony with the audience through an original and non-linear playlist.

Through his mixes, CEDRIC transports his audience on a captivating musical journey, where beats become stopovers and melodies become destinations to explore.

A key figure in the Charleroi electronic music scene, he joined the roster of the legendary Rockerill in 2013. His beloved club, where he has the pleasure of being a resident DJ for the FlashForward nights, he has performed alongside legendary international artists such as Laurent Garnier, Ellen Allien, Dave Clarke, Luke Slater, Monika Kruse, Tiga, Etienne de Crécy, and others, including Tim Engelhardt, Tal Fussman, KiNK, Adana Twins, and Kollektiv Turmstrasse, to name just a few.

Whether solo or with his bands The Babel Orchestra and Between The Lines, he has always remained close to the public and never far from the turntables. Wherever he goes, from the Boiler Room in the Black Country to the Kitkatclub in Berlin, and at numerous events in between, he loves to set the dance floor on fire and make it vibrate!

Here or there, halfway between timeless classics and incandescent new releases, embark with this unpretentious music lover for a unique experience. A soulful blend of house and techno, enhanced with a touch of melodic deep house, sometimes Afrobeat: that's CEDRIC's recipe for taking you on a journey where you'll dance until you sweat!

Red Irving continues his musical journey and updates it by making it even more energetic! Like a benevolent robot, Red Irving takes you to the essentials.
In tracks where sounds sometimes sharp and sometimes aggressive, but sometimes also minimal, coexist.

A musical palette that resonates between techno, house, electro, and even psychedelic elements.
The relentless vigor of life's impulses is countered by undulating melodies or heavier, darker sounds. In this creative race, the rhythm echoes melodies emanating from cosmic radios, perhaps even from dialogues with alien defectors...

Originally from Argentina but now based in Germany, Christ Burstein, aka Los Cabra, crafts sophisticated productions that blend deep and melodic beats with an Afrobeat touch. With several releases on labels like Get Physical, Stil Vor Talent, and Sincopat, the Argentinian has garnered attention from the international electronic music scene. After a memorable appearance at Apéros a few years ago, he's back to set the dance floor ablaze for this anniversary party!

Founder of the innovative label Kanzleramt in the world of German techno, Heiko Laux is one of the pioneers of the Berlin scene. He has been supported and applauded since his beginnings by the biggest names in the industry (Laurent Garnier, Adam Beyer, Len Faki) for his genre-blending style, which gives his productions and sets an unparalleled identity!
