PRESENTED BY BUNKER

After a four-year-hiatus, Bunker returns to The Substation to celebrate their tenth birthday this August. To make it a special birthday, Bunker has invited the esteemed talents of Denmark’s Schacke and Peachlyfe – accompanied by the world-class audio, visual and lighting production that has become the standard for this flagship event at an iconic venue.

Martin Schacke is one of the primary figures of the Danish "fast techno" scene centered around Copenhagen's Fast Forward Collective. Their raw, ecstatic tracks typically exceed 140 beats per minute and recall styles such as Hi-NRG, schranz, and hard trance. Releasing EPs as Schacke since 2016, they broke through with the acclaimed single "Kisloty People" in 2019, which became a major club hit and was named the best track of the year by Resident Advisor.

Joining Schacke, Peachlyfe is a hydra-sonic electronic musician that shook and seduced the Copenhagen fast-paced techno scene, deservedly claiming their seat within the Fast Forward Agency.

Peachlyfe’s productions and live-sets rebelliously weave across genres, trippy melodies cut with heavy slaps while slithering whispers in your ear sowing the dismantlement of the ‘cistem’. Their previous EP All Tits are Real, All Money is Fake, All Hail Satan is an ode to that anarchic-playfulness, a marvellous feat in blending rave-rush joy and queer defiance.
