Hdc & Shift Nyc

Heaven Dancing Club and Shift NYC collaborate for a tour de force of East Coast Techno. With respect for the foundation of the discipline, this all-night showcase, aloft a desolate alley in northeast D.C., stands as a beacon of raw nightlife. Through the haze and sporadic light, face the unstoppable pound of the TurboSound system — energy and sound effortlessly manipulated through a blend of digital and analog formats. The dungeonesque home called Fabrica will once again host an unmistakably authentic Techno adventure. True to form, Eklektrik Elektrik’s crazed TurboSound system, in absolute dissemination, makes its return. This proven format makes its final appearance for 2025. Adrian Hex stands among New York City’s premier Techno artists and curators. With releases on labels such as BCCO and Trau-ma, his productions have led the New York sound to the cutting edge. The Shift NYC founder returns to Washington, D.C. with his aggressive, unfiltered, and hypnotic flavor. HDC founder and resident Alexandre Docouto plays a blend of dub and hypnotica for the dance floor. This tasteful balance of truth and poison melts air and soul. His selection of expressive sound lies rooted in his heritage, drawing inspiration from the unique Portuguese flavor of Techno. Pushes and pulls — Jade Cao fills a room with hard, smooth energy. This selective aggression pays homage to the vintage taste she possesses. Her signature raw groove has placed her among D.C.’s leading Techno pioneers. Through various club nights, Jade Cao has left an unshakeable mark on partygoers, providing a transcendent sonic experience for all in the presence of her power. The HDC resident makes her return in full form. Mit Filter introduces their raw-cut style — fresh off her Tresor debut, Marteka Fair partners with Matthew Cha, channeling their distinct synergy of angst and release. For their first D.C. showcase under this pseudonym, Mit Filter arrives with unrivaled aggression and precision. Both artists stand as pioneers in the modern American Techno movement, with dynamic releases and performances across the world’s recognized Techno institutions. Secret Raver bridges the organic and the synthetic, shaping a sonic narrative that stimulates the mind, awakens the senses, and infuses the dance floor with vitality and spirit. His music embodies a forward-thinking approach, always looking to the future. Based in Brooklyn, Secret Raver crafts sets with surgical precision, focusing on deep grooves, hypnotic sounds, and immersive textures. Originally from Cork, Ireland, STE-VÍ's journey began as part of The Hanley Brothers, performing across Ireland’s underground circuit. Now a respected figure in New York’s electronic music scene, he continues to make his mark with all-vinyl performances that resonate with both purists and newcomers. Committed to growing the vinyl community by supporting and playing modern presses, while often blending them with tracks from the past, creating a sound that merges earlier eras of techno with forward-thinking energy.
