New season, new CAVE — global flavors, electrifying grooves, mesmerizing visuals, and stellar lineups. This edition brings together familiar faces and fresh names: MONOABE | LĪVA SALIŅA | BLISS | KAN | OAKSMITH | OJO
First off, we’re stoked to welcome our headliner - a fabulous Chilean music producer, live act, DJ and percussionist MONOABE. With profound knowledge in the southern tribes drumming and the global underground techno tradition MonoAbe puts together a colourful mixture of live drums, digital/analog machines, percussion and synthesizers.

Up next is a rising star we’ve been eyeing for a while - LĪVA SALIŅA. Līva builds her sets like stories - eclectic, unpredictable, and always full of feeling. From slow-burning disco to off-kilter dance tracks, her sound is playful yet edgy.
Ready for more dancefloor ecstasy? Meet BLISS - a mysterious new duo where two currents merge into one flow. Not just sound, but a shared state: clarity, intensity, stillness. BLISS transmits high vibrations, a signal of connection.
What’s else? OAKSMITH again. If you were at the last CAVE, you’ll know why. When the vibe was already peaking, Oaksmith pushed it even higher - and the crowd just refused to leave the floor when the night hit its end. Oaksmith is a DJ and music curator with a passion for global sounds, crafting sets that fuse mantric rhythms, organic textures, and soul-stirring vocals.
Last - but actually opening the night this time - is KAN, the engine behind CAVE. This set will see him dig into the slower side of his crate, crafting a groovy journey that fuses indigenous and urban sounds from across the globe, both soulful and dynamic.
And the visuals? Once again in the hands of OjO, crafting a multi-layered visual odyssey across the CAVE wall that blends cultural and natural motifs into an immersive tapestry amplifying the night’s sonic journeys.

MONOABE: With a profound knowledge in the southern tribes drumming and the global underground techno tradition MonoAbe from Santiago de Chile puts together a colourful mixture of live drums, digital/analog machines, percussion and synthesizers. On his sets you hear a clear cult to deep sounds, wild and tense atmospheres often exploding in tech-house bass lines and atonal harmony layers. His low frequency drumming performances are full of mysticism and groove, clearly following the roots of latin-american rituals. MonoAbe was born in the calves of a restless indian; his sounds and performances invite you to a hypnotic dancing experience with long and energetic breaks as well as steady techno beats, inspired by the very deep of the south-indigena jungles.
