An evening exploring the outer edges of electronic music, where club rhythms meet experimentation, cultural influences, and audio visual immersion. Bringing together Siete Catorce (Mexico City), El Ángel Exterminador (Vancouver), and Shikanji (Vancouver Island), the program showcases artists who transform the dance floor into a space for discovery. The entire evening will feature live generative visuals from cy.matic (Vancouver).

Expect intricate percussion, hypnotic groove, and rich soundscapes, inviting you to move and experience electronic music from new perspectives. 

Siete Catorce

Siete Catorce is the project of Mexican producer Marco Polo Gutiérrez, known for his distinctive fusion of Latin American rhythms and experimental club music. Drawing from cumbia, dubstep, and pre-Hispanic tribal sounds influenced by the Ruidosón movement, his work creates a unique rhythmic language that is both deeply rooted and forward-looking. With a sound that balances dark atmospheres and infectious energy, Siete Catorce has become a defining voice in Mexico’s evolving electronic music landscape. He has delivered acclaimed sets at renowned festivals like MUTEK Montreal, MUTEK Mexico, Boiler Room, and Festival Nrmal. 

After more than a decade of work, multiple albums, and the founding of his label Subreal, Siete Catorce continues to operate as a key figure in Latin club music: influential, consistent, and deliberately outside the media spotlight.

El Ángel Exterminador

An audiovisual project of Max Ammo (Mexico/Vancouver), El Ángel Exterminador explores electronic music as a space for surrealism, tension, and transformation. Combining analogue hardware, digital production, and experimental sound design, the project develops a distinctive approach to what it calls “thriller-electronics”,  a collision of dark atmospheres, spectral textures, and immersive audiovisual performance.

Having shared stages with artists such as ZUTZUT, Rosa Pistola, and Animistic Beliefs, and performed at festivals like New Forms and venues including the Polygon Gallery (VAN), El Ángel Exterminador’s hybrid performances deliver sharp edges, ethereal undertones, and spectral Latin American influences.

Shikanji 

Shikanji is an experimental electronic music project exploring the intersections of techno, diasporic rhythms, IDM, and leftfield club music. Shifting between hypnotic grooves, fractured rhythms, and richly layered textures, Shikanji blurs the boundaries between experimental listening and the dance floor, inviting audiences into sets that are dynamic, unpredictable, and deeply immersive.

cy.matic (VJ)

cy.matic’s visuals are a testing ground for investigating synesthetic experience through audio-visual and spatial exploration. The work inhabits the intersection of sound, spatial design, and generative graphics, creating immersive environments that evolve continuously and responsively to live audio signals.
