Intimate club night with the best DJs and an unforgettable atmosphere
The best DJs and an unforgettable atmosphere. Lovingly selected by us for your (and our own) dancing pleasure. Tonight, two Utrecht natives at the helm: Balu & Lyrae.
BALU
Utrecht’s vinyl collector and selector Nicolas van Dedem, also known as BALU, is a true musical polymath. Starting with a passion for the world of analogue music, he learned to play guitar, piano, and drums, eventually developing a brief interest in digital DJing. However, BALU feels most at home among his ever-growing collection of vinyl records, spanning jazz, hip-hop, acid techno, and micro-house. As one of the faces behind local Birdcage Radio, Nicolas nurtures new talents, but tonight, he’ll be sprinting behind the decks himself, delivering a solid dose of house, dub techno, and breakbeat cuts.
LYRAE
Emerging local talent Emma Neijgh van Lier, aka Lyrae, is making waves and gaining well-deserved attention. Her deep-rooted passion for electronic music is evident in her diverse collection of uplifting and intergalactic progressive house, breakbeat, and trance. With residencies at Birdcage Radio, sets at Maxi Radio, and NAR appearances under her belt, it’s now EKKO’s turn to experience her magic.
