Wanderlust pres. 'The first Chapter' with PARAPHER, JAPAU, Brecc, GUS & JORG (live) & many more

Wanderlust opens its Berlin event series with a night dedicated to the raw, uncompromising side of contemporary techno. A space where sound becomes physical matter and the dancefloor turns into a shared ritual.

This is not a conventional party. It is an environment shaped by distortion, emotions and collective immersion.

Hard industrial textures and cinematic atmospheres will guide the night from start to finish, creating a continuous flow where time dissolves and only movement remains.

The night unfolds across two dancefloors, each exploring a different dimension of the same world. One floor dedicated to hard industrial, the other to bochka — the groovier, more hypnotic side of the same sound. Both floors build gradually through the night, moving from slower and deeper moments into something harder and more intense as the hours pass.

The lineup features 13 artists, including 4 live sets and 1 hybrid live set. Each artist has been carefully selected to cover a specific slot in the night, creating a journey through different facets of industrial — across different BPMs, textures and styles. We strongly encourage you not to miss the opening acts.

One chill area will also be available throughout the night. An outdoor space with an expansive garden where you can take a breath and step away from the dancefloor for a moment. The garden will have quieter music playing.

We believe in the dancefloor as a place of equality, respect and presence, where individual identity fades into a collective experience driven purely by sound.

Doors open at 22:30 for the Kamin Zimmer and at 23:00 for the Festsaal.

The full timetable will be released during the week of the event.

To preserve the atmosphere we are creating, this event follows a strict NO PHONE POLICY. Camera lenses on phones will be covered with stickers at the entrance, and we kindly ask everyone to respect this rule in order to maintain the right environment and allow people to fully immerse themselves in the experience.

A professional videographer will be documenting the artists’ performances throughout the night. While the focus is on the artists, attendees close to the front of the dancefloor or performance areas may appear incidentally in some footage. By entering the event, you acknowledge and accept that photo/video recordings may take place and may be used for promotional or editorial purposes related to Wanderlust.
