Ready to ditch the algorithm and get lost in the sound?
On Saturday, June 27th, Rare Cuts debuts to take you on a deep dive through the dusty corners of vinyl crates and forgotten digital vaults. This isn't your standard club night—it's a sonic expedition into the obscure, the hypnotic, and the outright brilliant.
Guiding you through the wilderness are two selectors who know exactly how to read a room (and bend a mind):
🎧 The Selectors
Peret von Sturmer: Bringing his signature deep grooves and amazing transitions to keep you guessing—and moving.
DJ Jemka: Curating a masterclass in mood, blending rare rhythms and underground gems that you won't hear anywhere else.
🗓️ The Details
When: SAT, June 27th
Time: Doors open at 8:30 PM till late
Damage: FREE ENTRY all night long.
Expect: Deep cuts, global grooves, leftfield house, techno oddities, and everything in between.
Leave your expectations at the door. Come with an open mind, leave with a new favourite track. See you on the floor. 🌲🔊
