A.M.C is a renowned technician on the d&b scene. When he’s in the mood for a bit of madness, he goes full throttle with breakneck speed across four decks, leaving you picking your jaw up off the floor after a set. He is a DJ and producer who received the award for Best Drum & Bass DJ five years in a row (2019-2023) at the Drum&BassArena Awards. His shift towards dancefloor and jump-up vibes is underscored by a touch of darkstep darkness, so even with catchy, hit-like moments, fans of something heavier will also be satisfied. Joining him on the mic is Phantom: a true Drum & Bass legend. 30 years of experience. Pure energy!

What’s the best way to crank up a sound that sits right on the edge of trap and dubstep? With a brass orchestra! Apashe is bringing his full ensemble to Audioriver to showcase the sheer power of his sound: epic, built on soul-crushing bass, and steeped in classical music influences. From the very first note, it’s clear he approaches his productions with a cinematic grandiosity. Having started his career scoring AAA video games, he’s moved on to major films and the world’s biggest stages.

Ben Klock is the very heart of the Berghain sound and has been a resident of the club for nearly 20 years. Few artists are so intrinsically linked to a specific venue. His legend was forged, in part, by his marathon sets. It was during these performances that a signature sound was born: raw and powerful, yet possessing incredible depth. There would be no Klock without Berghain, and no Berghain without Klock. Looking back today, it’s safe to say that thanks to his efforts, a techno renaissance was triggered, one that continues to this day. He is an absolute icon and a creator of timeless art. This year, much like the Audioriver Festival, he is also celebrating a 20th anniversary: in 2006, he founded his own label, Klockworks.
