Thursday night moves with a loose sense of inevitability, guided by rumble-strip rhythms and a steady exchange of back-to-back intuition. DJ Brian and Emi open in unhurried fashion, favoring restraint over spectacle, letting low-end pressure and negative space do the heavy lifting. Their set eases the room into motion, less a declaration than a suggestion, inviting the floor to settle into its own cadence.
Joiah and Zayd follow by sharpening the edges, threading skittering percussion and off-axis melodic fragments into something more kinetic. Their interplay nudges the room forward without forcing it, introducing tension in small, deliberate increments.
At the night’s core is Ukrainian live artist Vera Logdanidi, whose performance shifts the energy from selection to construction. Working with analog hardware and evolving sequences, she builds grooves in real time, allowing patterns to fray, reassemble, and bloom. The effect is tactile and immersive, a reminder of the physicality that live electronics can bring to the club when patience outweighs immediacy.
Kurilo and DJ S—proprietor of Mansions—close the arc with a grounded, unflashy confidence. Their back-to-back leans into depth and continuity, folding drifting percussion and weighted basslines into a slow, hypnotic glide that carries the room through the final stretch, less concerned with peak moments than with the long afterglow.
