CTM unveils a new event format with Exponential Function, an immersive warehouse rave taking place at Berlin-Kreuzberg’s Haus der Visionäre, a recent addition to the city’s landscape that CTM will also return to for our 2026 festival. This immersive warehouse rave brings together some of the most forward-thinking DJs and producers. Select artists on the lineup – ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, DJ Fuckoff, and mi-el – are set to experiment with the brand-new Ambrio spatial DJ mixer on d&b’s pioneering Soundscape audio system, sculpting sound in real time to transform the dancefloor into a fully immersive 360° audio experience. Light scenography will be by Kluk collective.
Headlining the night is Japan’s leading otherworldly selector ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, an absolute force of nature behind the decks known for his uncanny ability to blend wildly different genres into coherent, mind-expanding sets. His mixing approach feels both spontaneous and inevitable, whether he's connecting drill with hard techno or making gabber flow seamlessly into reggaeton.
London-born DJ, producer, label founder, community builder, activist and UK beacon SHERELLE hums with her deep love for jungle, footwork, hardcore, and grime, translated into fast-paced dance injections dripping with emotion and chaotic beauty. High-BPM breakbeats, acid blasts, and hard-hitting club energy are all on the menu. Tokyo’s Minna-no-kimochi summon trance as a heaving beast, 90s rave and 2010s EDM exhumed into a post-club wasteland—sweat dripping from concrete walls, bodies sick with dance fever, the air a spectral pulse. From ambient fog, their trance-endental rituals beckon the mind towards bodily surrender and ignition.
New Zealand-born and Berlin-based, DJ Fuckoff’s sets whip you across the hardcore spectrum at shotgun speed, weaving raw breakbeats, acidic techno, and gushes of trap and psytrance into ferocious mega-energy whirlwinds. Percolating provocations over pounding basslines. DJ, producer and promoter mi-el is known for her meticulous, deeply personal and grinning approach to selection. Sets from this Berlin-via-London artist blur and slice through club precision with artful interference, gliding across the cortex chimerically.
At Exponential Function, ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, DJ Fuckoff, and mi-el will be testing out the real-time possibilities of spatialised sound performance through a premiere combination of the brand-new Ambrio spatial DJ mixer and the immersive d&b Soundscape audio system. Traditional DJ and live setups limit spatial dramaturgy by the artist, with mixers and controllers focused on stereo output. At the same time, existing immersive audio setups mostly rely on complex, pre-programmed spatialization systems, which often demand high technical knowledge that can represent a barrier for live performers.
Designed for artists by artists, Brussels-based audio startup Ambrio introduces an intuitive approach to live control of spatial audio, enabling real-time movement and interaction. The Ambrio SPM spatial DJ mixer enables artists to dynamically move sounds across a multi-speaker setup, apply real-time effects that respond to the room’s acoustics and speaker placement, add spatial delay or reverb for true 3D audio immersion, and program automated movements and transitions for seamless spatial shifts. ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U’s wild blend of genres, DJ Fuckoff’s primo not-giving-a-fuckedness, and mi-el’s sonic shape-shifting abilities will only become more mind-expanding thanks to these enhanced artistic possibilities. The Ambrio mixer will also be put to artistic use at the upcoming CTM 2026 festival, accompanied by workshops where participants can explore the mixer firsthand, delve into spatial audio workflows, and uncover new applications in collaboration with d&b, Ableton, and Ambrio.
Partnering with longtime friends 3hd Festival, we’re happy to offer a limited amount of connect tickets that grant access to CTM’s Exponential Function and 3hd’s »Nausea« performance programme, both running in different rooms at Haus der Visionäre. A sequence of art and sound performances, »Nausea« guides audiences through shifting atmospheres and shared moments of disorientation. The evening features caner teker’s »KIRKPINAR,« a translation of traditional Turkish oil wrestling into a site where vulnerability and power intertwine, using ritualised intimacy to reveal the constructed nature of masculine identity and cultural tradition. Presenting the body in perpetual struggle between creation and collapse, Kinlaw’s »gut ccheck« rages against systemic structures while remaining trapped in cycles of overload and endurance. Sippin’ T navigates the evolving space between becoming and remembering, questioning whether we become someone new or return to ourselves, using sound and space-making to rediscover home within capitalist structures that fragment identity and community. Zein Majali’s audiovisual performances map digital disorientation and narrative collapse within contemporary geopolitical contexts, using technology to illuminate how meaning fragments and reforms across networked realities.
The chill-out zone between Hall 1 and Hall 2 will be graced by a sculpture by Zuzanna Czebatul, curated by 3hd. The sculpture will be on display until midnight.
