"Some basses. Some high pitches. Some needs.
A search. A creation. A trust.
Highs are nothing without lows
An artist is nothing without his audience
Freedom, independence, a vision"

This need to get away from the mainstream, this peculiar desire to achieve a degree of maturity facing the abundance of parties, the wish to leave room to one's personality in order to transform a consumption of events into a sonorous and visual emotional search.

From Brussels to Berlin we are very proud to host our first event abroad. We've been invited by one of the freshest club to perform and spread the quest for beats and emotions.

Caring is part of achieving. Through this motto, High Needs Low always tried to get away from the trends by putting forward producers and Dj's who do care. And for this special night in SK Robinson we definitly surrounded ourselves with extra caring personalities.

Our first guest has already performed among us in Brussels and showed us truth and sincerity through his emotional performance. Holger Zilske has moved the electronic world with his album Holz in 2009 on Playhouse. Half of the well known duo Smash TV, this eletronic wizard recently released an astonished experimental downtempo album alongside with August Landelius on FauxPas Musik under the Yoko Duo project. Let's get bewitched by his DJ set!

We've been following sir Venedikt Reyf since a long time and it's a true pleasure to have him among us this night. Evolving under the aliases of Suedmilch, Benedikt Frey or V, from his various podcasts witnessing a peculiar taste for internal journey, feelings and a certain dubby flavor, to his productions on strong identity labels such as Anton Zap's Ethereal Sounds or forthcoming Jus Ed's Underground Quality, this young and gifted magician has a various range of tricks in his DJ bag. Any doubts? Just check his releases on mysterious record label Aldebaran or more dancefloor oriented Pour Le Mérite and Niveous.

We met our last guest through our german/italian beloved brother collective WupWup. A true music lover. Späk (33/NK-Secrets) tends to show major respect and extra care about tunes he plays. He's part of those rare black gold digger, not being affraid of going under 118bpm, steadily building tension and drama, distilling an intimate story through housy vibes, freaky basslines and all time classics. Being around for a few years now, he developped this peculiar sense of rightness in his sets. No more words, let the music do the talk, you won't be disapointed.

HNL gang is composed of Soumaya DanceMachine (founder of High Needs Low), Pablo Handless Dj and Davon. They all are experienced musicians, Djs working on different projects and labels. Self-taught, eager for all different types of culture, supporters of the Do-it-yourself spirit, they complete and challenge each other in order to go beyond the expected and the consensual.

Soumaya DanceMachine, has brought a wind of fresh air in Belgium. Performing all over Europe from major bookings to fashion and artistics events, she's always on the edge combining feminity and keen sense of groove and energy. Known for her fancy footwork, from house to techno she handles a dancefloor like no one does raising a general wind of frenzyness until early dawn. Working on her own productions with DKA under the name of Bernard & Bianca, she's now in charge of the artistic managment of Libertine Suppersport club, providing avant garde electronic music every saturday in Brussels.

Pablo Handless DJ is a record collector, from detroit house to future bass and dub techno, he enjoys taking his listeners to unexpected darker places to catch them back on a groovy familiar vibe. He delivers colourfull dj sets enhancing the deep aspect of electronic music. Playing in Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and France, he keeps on evolving in a various underground circuit witnessing a constant inner search on self improvement and developpement. He recently teamed up with producer Boubastar working on a record label project together.

Davon is a house freak. Part of Misericordz and Accroupi Records this expatriate french man knows where the groove's at. A peculiar taste for acid flavors, from fierce kicks and deep bass lines to classic house 'the way it should be'. He got spotted alongside with his mate Pathetik delivering bombastic B2Bs at early hours spreading wildness all around the dancefloor.

They will be teaming up with fourth musqueteer Esteban Gonzalez, photographer and video activist part of the parisian NEUE Collectiv.
