Dax J Live

Stripping techno down to its rawest elements – rhythm, repetition, and release – Dax J’s intense, industrial-leaning sound is unmistakably his own. Headlining institutions such as Berghain and Bassiani, the London-born artist rose from the underground to global prominence, earning accolades from Resident Advisor, DJ Mag, and Groove Magazine along the way. Across records released on his own Monnom Black imprint – including the celebrated albums Shades of Black and Offending Public Morality – he has consistently pushed the form forward. In his live shows, relentless productions driven by distorted percussion blur the line between performance and pressure test, locking dancers into a hypnotic, high-tempo momentum. Fierce, focused, and utterly face-melting, this live set marks Dax J’s first in the Netherlands for eight years. His performance is also a brand-new live show – experienced here at Dekmantel for the very first time.
