Altinbas (live)

Altinbas makes totalizing techno.

The producer-DJ has honed a style that is not just multi-layered but multiscaled- his sound at once strikingly immense and instinctively granular. With huge pads and synthesizers, emotion is the essence. The Tunnel becomes a space for ascension, introspective techno is elevated into something communal. It’s music that towers over you, leaving you in awe. As one of the best live sets around, it’s no surprise that we chose Altinabas as the sonic architect for sundown on Saturday.

This is the kind of set that lingers with you, long after you leave the gates.
