Cult Member, benzii

About the experience

Crunch Tapes & Positive Transmitter present: Cult Member Canadian producer Cult Member (Liam Hayden) crafts a shadowy, hypnotic strain of electronic music that fuses techno, acid, and left-field club influences into something both emotionally charged and distinctly atmospheric. Emerging from Canada’s underground scene and gaining early attention with releases like Ethernet on Pure Life Tapes, he has shaped a sound built on brooding textures, tense rhythms, and a pull between euphoria and unease. With support from platforms such as NTS and a steady shift from experimental beginnings toward a darker, more hard-edged club aesthetic, Cult Member stands out as a quietly influential figure in today’s underground electronic landscape. Opening act: benzii benzii makes club music that hits the heart while keeping the body moving. The 23-year-old Berliner blends dance, indie pop and internet nostalgia into emotional, high-energy tracks. Working with underground figures like DJmegan23, Ayegy and techno legend Paul Seul, she proves club music can be both playful and deep. Her EP 'spirallore' captures messy twenties emotions through indie sleaze and dance-pop, followed by the remix release 'spirallore +++'. Now launching her debut album '8 – forever', benzii carves out her own leftfield space in Berlin’s underground — no compromises, just #benziicore. Doors: 19:00 Start: 20:30
