STIMULAR invites Gabber Eleganza, founder of the iconic multidisciplinary platform Never Sleep. Hardcore, gabber and rave with deep foundations in the past, building a bridge to the future. Ghent's very own Klakmatrak also joins the line-up with a new live show. More artists to be announced.

The Italy born, Germany based artist Alberto Geurrini AKA Gabber Eleganza is the founder of multidisciplinary platform Never Sleep, which started in Berlin in 2017.

Never Sleep is a curated archive which flourished into a multifaceted project with connections to art, fashion, music and culture, and later evolved into an independent label.

As a DJ Gabber Eleganza captures the brute, in-your-face sound of hardcore as well as the current wave of underground club and electronic music drawing inspiration from rave and gabber sounds.

Microphones disappear into their mouths, guitars are smashed to pieces, and the sets systematically get out of hand. Bless the mess!

The sight of skinheads covered head to toe in tattoos and dressed like football hooligans may drag up more negative connotations than a lot of people are comfortable with. But Gabber Eleganza goes a long way in showing there’s more to it. There’s beauty and unity to be found here.

Straight outta Ghent, Belgium, these two lunatics give absolutely zero fucks about what others think: Klakmatrak. Eating microphones, trashing guitars and pushing their punky terror french-core uptempo LIVE SETS beyond control. Refusing to lock themselves into narrow genres, they brutally remix anything that stands in their way, nothing is safe. Their focus lies on the psychological impact of extreme bass frequencies, pushing bodies and brains far past comfort zones.

Former member Dreeten stepped aside and was replaced by uncle Youri on heavy metal guitar, dragged on the road by Brent. Distortion, feedback and riffs collide head-on with fast and evil gabber kick drums. The result is a new sound: heavier, darker and sharper, where metal energy and klakmatrak chaos melt into something future-proof.

They are also the brains behind STIMULAR, responsible for the biggest hardcore events Ghent has ever seen, booking the biggest names in the scene while tearing through Belgium with their collective STIMULARMY. With their MATRAK, they will attempt to KLAK every single brain cell in your head.
