There are few DJs left like Héctor Oaks! The Spaniard still travels with a bag full of vinyl, packed with gems and classics from the golden eras of dance music. Classic techno, ghetto house, tribal, EBM, and Berlin sounds all collided with contemporary music to create an explosive mix that sets the dancefloor on fire. Raised on the Spanish rave culture of the ’90s, Oaks eventually moved to Berlin, where he established his reputation, labels, and signature sound. Today, back in his home country, he is building new visions for dance music. Fuego Universal is the title of his latest album, but it could just as easily be the motto for his entire career. That torch will never go out.

Hate Models returns to Audioriver! One of the most dynamic, energetic, and captivating artists on the techno scene. Over a decade of performing, the French DJ and producer has climbed to the peak of popularity, primarily thanks to his live performances. He masterfully blends hard techno with trance and industrial, doing so with the flair of a top-tier showman who can charm even the biggest skeptics of heavy sounds. Sometimes you just know when someone truly lives their music. In the case of IHM, you can see it from the very first glance.
