What hasn’t Boys Noize done! He is a producer, DJ, and film score composer who has collaborated with massive pop stars, including work on the Grammy-winning single “Rain on Me” by Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande. He’s worked with Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails and has shared the studio with the likes of Skrillex and VTSS. Despite these high-profile crossovers, his name remains synonymous first and foremost with club music. Having started as an electro-house artist, he can now be heard exploring the heavier, post-industrial vibes of EBM, which he presents in a catchy, accessible way. Now, Boys Noize is set to take over the main stage at Audioriver!

Chlär is one of the greatest underground techno talents of recent years! You likely know him from the duo Funk Assault, but he thrives just as well as a solo artist, usually mixing from three or four decks simultaneously. This is all part of his quest for the perfect polyrhythm, as the Swiss artist believes in the fundamental relationship between humans and the groove. Constant self-improvement and the meticulous refining of his sound are his trademarks. This year at Audioriver, the Kosmos stage will be a hub for the impenetrable depth of Berlin sounds!

Colin Benders is the undisputed king of techno improvisation. He never hits the stage without his modular synthesizer. You’ve likely seen the viral clip where Benders repairs a sequencer mid-set without missing a beat—he’s always got a screwdriver at the ready! He’s a true pro who knows his gear like no one else, conjuring electrifying music built on deep, hypnotic grooves from any interface. Despite the technical complexity, every performance is raw and instinctive, hitting every dancer right where it counts with powerful, bone-shaking bass.
