Blending melodic techno, classical roots, and ancestral sound, Things Are Not What They Seem is Djeity’s immersive debut with visuals by al11z and cello by Fili Gibbons.

Nocturne 4 on August 23

Mastered by @pheek (audioservices.studio)

Blurring the lines between physical immersion and emotional healing, Mok-T and Bar Rubinstein present Surface Healing, an audiovisual odyssey based on Mok-T’s EP of the same name. Inspired by the dive reflex and the calming depths of “deep” music, the project translates the EP’s sonic foundations into a live audiovisual form, navigating between introspection and bursts of light while exploring resilience, community, and the dancefloor’s quiet power to heal.

In Lueurs Quantiques, France Jobin and Markus Heckmann delve into the paradoxes of antimatter through modular sound, light, and haze.

Shifting beams and shadows sculpt a fleeting architecture of energy and abstraction.

Santiago Bartolomé & Epojé Ft. Luckiboy (AR) @santiago_bartolome

Live at MUTEK.AR | 7ª Edición

October 6, 2024 — Planetario Galileo Galilei, Buenos Aires

Concept & Artistic Direction by Santiago Bartolomé & Juan Murua Palacio

This spatial sound nomadic journey invites you to suspend judgment by tracing a perceptive constellation. Its aesthetic expression, an abstract silhouette, is assembled and disassembled,

folded and unfolded, in an ephemeral scenography. A parenthesis slides, erasing the trace; a dislocation where the apparently intangible becomes apprehensible.

“The mark left by its passage is the feeling of remaining in journey”
