Dread Sanctum - Dark sessions

Welcome to Dread Sanctum - Dark sessions

On stage: Aux Animaux, Majestoluxe and Gamma Vortex.

DJ´s: Hawk, Undine, P.T.H.

Tonight, we step into the physical, into the raw and unfiltered. Dark Sessions marks Dread Sanctum’s first live gathering, a night of intense entertainment and a feast for the senses, veiled in shadows and light. The abyss stirs, the stage awaits, and together, we bring the darkness to life.

We start with the hardest to set the pace: Gamma Vortex is a solo project by Martin Rudefelt, known from Cryo and Sound Sequence. It’s hard, it’s heavy, with a mix of dark electro and aggrotech infused with Martin's signature sound: “It’s a descent into the very heart of darkness.” With two highly praised EP releases in 2024, he has created a whole new visual expression in his live performances with Gamma Vortex, promising the audience a thrilling and unforgettable experience.

Next, let’s indulge ourselves in an unrelenting and intricate tapestry of modular synths and heavy electronics: Majestoluxe is the moniker of Conny Fornbäck, whose music is firmly rooted in 80s industrial and EBM. Add equal parts brutal techno and experimental electroacoustic art music, and you get music that is unmistakably retro and fiercely modern – a sonic concoction that defies categorization. With a number of full-length albums, EPs, and singles, Majestoluxe is a cornerstone of the modern electronic scene and a highly sought-after live performer who has played in Europe as well as the Americas.

And the Grand Finale! When your greatest fears and desires collide, they become a singularity of the soul: Aux Animaux is a solo project by Gözde Düzer, the queen of dark and eerie soundscapes that evolve into 'Hauntwave'—a musical style born from a love of horror movies and occultism. Cloaked in dark synth tunes, dystopian sounds, a gasping theremin, and her powerful yet somber voice, this unique sound has resulted in several renowned albums. Her blend of dark aesthetics and captivating music has made her a highly celebrated live artist, with extensive touring throughout Europe and beyond over the past year.

All this splendor is firmly framed by our sonic pace-setters:

Dj Hawk, Dj Undine and Dj P.T.H.

Before, between, and after each performance, they will weave a relentless soundscape, ensuring no moment is left untouched by the pulse of the abyss. Together, they will drive the night into a fevered frenzy - an intensity rarely seen since the days of The Old Ones.

Dread Sanctum is a Citadel of Dark Arts. A realm where live music sessions, gripping storytelling, and a hypnotic fusion of dark aesthetics and cinematic intensity converge. A sanctuary where fear is not just felt - it’s celebrated. From short films to haunting performances, we create a space for artists and fans to share their darkness, their visions, their stories.
