<p>Poised, playful and powerful,&nbsp;<strong>Anetha’s</strong> updated version of techno remains true to the genre’s blueprint, as you might expect from someone who originally trained as an architect. The French artist's modern sound looks beyond four-to-the-floor kicks but maintains the essence of the rave, incorporating trance, drum’n’bass, and even deconstructed club tracks. 2024 was her biggest year yet, with the release of her debut album&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://anetha.bandcamp.com/album/mty010-mothearth">Mothearth</a>,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://mixmag.net/feature/anetha-cover-feature-interview-paris-dj-mama-told-ya">magazine cover features</a>, and a series of high profile dates - including a showstopping set at Sónar by Night in Barcelona - around the world.

After blowing the Sónar by Day audience away in Barcelona in 2024, they’re bringing this very special show to Lisbon. Get ready to sweat.&nbsp;</span></span></p>

It’s also a fitting word to describe the intensity of his vinyl-only sets, which burn through rapid techno, raw ghetto house, acid, industrial and anything else he’s got in his crate. Last time he DJed at Sónar Lisboa he managed to convince Richie Hawtin to dig out his records for the first time in years, and while that’s not likely to happen this time round, we can promise plenty of fire emojis when this underground raver turned international superstar takes to the booth.</span></span></p>

A pivotal figure in the history of Sónar, it’s an honour to welcome him to Sónar Lisboa for the first time.</span></span></p>

<p class="p1">From the queer underground of Paris to Berlin warehouses and Balearic sunsets,&nbsp;<strong>Jennifer Cardini</strong> has played almost everywhere. With a career that spans three decades, they've quietly attained the status of the pioneers they once looked up to. And they've done it their way, staying true to their belief in the liberatory power of club culture and their love of music. Although best known for music that sits somewhere between seductive house, dark italo and coldwave - check their labels&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://correspondant.bandcamp.com/"><span class="s1">Correspondant</span></a> and&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://dischiautunno.bandcamp.com/"><span class="s1">Dischi Autunno</span></a> - they'll also dip into the sleek techno and sexy EBM, or even hands-in-the-air rave euphoria, depending on the occasion. Expect a celebration of dance music from one of the best around at Sónar Lisboa 2025.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="p1">In an era of huge screens and elaborate visual projections, Detroit techno pioneer <strong>Richie Hawtin</strong> has decided to look backwards to move forwards. His latest live show <strong>DEX EFX X0X </strong>goes back to the genre’s roots, a celebration of the dancefloor as a dark, mysterious place where you can lose yourself in the music. Using a combination of specially-configured lighting and immersive sound design, the Canadian innovator has created an experience that’s ‘more club than concert’. One of the highlights of Sónar 2024 in Barcelona, we can’t wait to bring this very special show to Lisbon.</p>

The techno pioneer’s new back-to-basics live set uses modern lighting and sound design to recreate the feel of an underground club
