Hidden Empire
also plays Berlin — 6 nights
Not your typical techno/house act, Branko and Niklas, alias Hidden Empire, have established a sound signature at once abstract and alluringly dynamic over the years, gathering momentum through a handful of quality releases for an array of international labels.
Since the drop of their first records back in 2015, Branko and Niklas have been championing a sound both genuinely turned towards the club while allowing themselves to explore into further adventurous territories – from dreamy, cosmic excursions to a versatile arsenal of foundation-shaking EBM cuts, via exotic detours and back to the classic, floor-focused programming that flows through all of their ambitious, stadium-sized output. The pair’s wide-screen vision shows Branko and Niklas’ impeccable sense for crafting sonics that far surpass mere DJ functionality to print into the listener’s mind durably.
