IGNEZ will make his Istanbul debut on Saturday, February 14, appearing in the FLUX booth, presented by Defragged Istanbul. As one of the key figures shaping modern techno, IGNEZ blends the auditory landscapes of the Dutch coastline with minimal, hypnotic techno. Through releases on his own label SOMOV Records, as well as TOKEN, SK_ELEVEN, and WSNWG — including two collaborative EPs with Rødhad — he has carved out a distinctive and refined sound. His performances span some of the world’s most respected venues, including Berghain, FOLD, RSO, Bassiani, Hive, and Gare. Joining IGNEZ for his first Istanbul performance are Melchiorr and Nepomuk, founders of DYS Records from Munich’s proper techno scene, alongside Undrtow, founder of Defragged Istanbul and a key figure in Istanbul’s proper techno movement.
