Ben Rau (GER) - Club 121 - May 27th

Last seen on the stage at 121 Festival 2020, Ben Rau returns to Wellington this May to reconnect with the dancers.

Ben’s love for music came in his early 20s in the UK after losing himself in the music and exploring his deep-seated passion for electronic music through self-expression

He is equally at home as a DJ in the clubs, and on festival stages. The past few years has seen him play Glastonbury Festival, Pitch, 121 Festival and BPM Festival in Costa Rica. He has also garnered club bookings at the likes of Amnesia in Ibiza,Tobacco Dock and Studio 338 in London.

Liquid Earth (USA) - Club 121 - May 28th

We are truly excited to be hosting the Californian navtive Liquid Earth on May 28th.

His sound is uniquely transatlantic, infusing the rhythmic sensibilities of London and Berlin with the sun-soaked serenity of the Californian coast line.

Freels makes dance music cocktails that pop like a twist of lime hitting seltzer. Melodic, crisp, and always refreshing, each track by the California-native is singularly recognizable as he refashions vintage sounds for the clubs of tomorrow.

His bookings and podcasts have been piling up like hot cakes with best-in-class mixes for the likes of Honey Soundsystem and Butter Side Up and DJ appearances at Dimensions Festival and Panorama Bar.

Last scene at the Avalon Studios raves, Oliver Huntermann returns to 121 for a night of unforgiving techno.

Huntemann’s concrete roots can be traced back to early techno, and, like so many of his colleagues, his route to techno took a tour through electro and rave. Today the techno veteran is more relevant than ever, and his label Senso Sounds has opened him up to whole new generation of electronic music lovers. With a string of acclaimed works to his names, his yearly schedule sees him playing across the globe on the world’s biggest stages.
