BLACKRAVE 03.OCT at Trough X Sydney #afterIRH 8pm-1am
Trough X
Surry Hills NSW, Australia
Description
BLACK RAVE returns this Labour Day long weekend after IRH hosting at Trough X Sydney. A journey across the spectrum of techno, driven by movement and powered by precision, where sound quality is everything and the energy stays locked in. This night is about losing yourself in the darkness, moving with warm bodies that share the same obsession, and becoming one through rhythm and repetition. From start to finish, the room stays connected, focused and alive. No distractions, just pure techno with clarity, force and intention. In the darkness we become one. Only techno. The limit does not exist.
Lineup
DJ Marco Mani & Pablo Andrés B2B
DJ Marco Mani and Pablo Andrés join forces for a high-energy B2B journey through Peak Time Techno, bringing together their individual styles for a set built to keep the dancefloor moving from start to finish. Expect powerful driving rhythms, heavy grooves, iconic techno classics and carefully crafted moments of tension, release and unexpected surprises. Feeding off each other behind the decks, Marco and Pablo will continuously push the energy higher, moving between familiar anthems and harder, more unpredictable selections. Two DJs, one set, maximum energy!
Chris 73
Cristiane Paes aka Chris 73 has carved out a distinct presence in the Australian techno scene. Blending philosophy, self-awareness, and powerful sound design, she has built an artistic identity that goes beyond the dancefloor. When behind the decks, she is recognized by her strong stage presence. She is appearing on Sydney’s and Perth’s main stages, and she has shared the DJ booth with internationally recognised names such as Space 92 and Mha Iri. Chris 73 has been shaping a catalogue that merges intensity, message, and growing recognition. Her strongest charting release so far, “Open Your Mind,” reached five Beatport chart categories, while the others also gained chart traction and support from big artists. Chris’ music is influenced by Detroit Techno, a place she visited in 2024 to learn about the techno roots and its history. Her tracks are minimal, hypnotic, and driving in style. As an artist, her main goal is to create music with a higher purpose—sharing a message through sound. Ultimately, Chris hopes to humbly inspire people to reflect and make positive changes in their lives. “Contrast births awareness, and awareness is the key to transformation.” - Chris 73
DJ Jonier
DJ Jonier brings an energetic and playful approach to bouncy techno, exploring the more melodic and lyrical side of techno. His sets combine driving basslines, infectious grooves and recognisable vocals, creating moments that feel euphoric, fun and highly connected to the dancefloor. With an enthusiastic presence behind the decks, Jonier moves between high-energy techno and mainstream-driven moments, keeping his sets dynamic, uplifting and full of personality. His sound is built to make people move, sing and lose themselves in the energy of the room.
N.TØN
N.TØN moves through hypnotic, deep, raw and minimal techno, shaping his sets around long, flowing blends and immersive progression. His sound is focused, stripped-back and atmospheric, with a strong interest in uncovering lesser-known artists and tracks beyond the obvious. His connection to techno developed in Moscow throughout the 2010s, influenced by the European club scene and the darker, more underground side of the genre. Still evolving as an artist, N.TØN continues to refine a distinctive and consistent sound built for deep, late-night dancefloors.
