Danse Macabre XV

𝑫𝑨𝑵𝑺𝑬 𝑴𝑨𝑪𝑨𝑩𝑹𝑬 

Join us for a night where Maribor’s dark history meets the relentless energy of the Graz underground.

We are honored to host Maribor’s own cult dark-goth pioneers, SHANTI NILAYA. They will set the stage with their signature atmospheric sound, bringing a piece of gothic history back to life for an unforgettable live performance. 

As the final notes of the live show fade, we shift gears into high-voltage electronics. More than guests, our next performers are the true pillars of our community who have been with us since the very beginning: DJ Funker101 and DJane Valakiia. Direct from Graz, they know exactly how to command our dance floor. 

Expect a seamless sonic journey through the darkest corners of electronic music. From melodic synth-lines to aggressive industrial stompers – the ritual continues until dawn.

Shanti Nilaya
Emerging from the Maribor underground, Shanti Nilaya delivers a potent blend of dark rock melancholy and gothic metal intensity. Their sound is a sonic journey through the shadows of the human psyche, where heavy riffs meet deep, haunting vocals and hypnotic rhythms.
Staying true to the dark aesthetic, the band creates a unique atmospheric experience that balances introspection with raw energy.

DJ Funker101 is a veteran of the scene and organizer of the Electrified parties in Graz for over 20 years. He is also the voice behind the old – school EBM act Muscles on the Move. Known for his surgical mixing and high-energy sets, he seamlessly blends EBM, Futurepop, and Synthpop to keep the floor pumping.

DJane Valakiia is a versatile DJ from Graz who has been an active DJ and event organizer for over 15 years. Since 2016 she has been hosting her own metal event, Valakiia’s Slaughterhouse. She is a resident DJ for Electrified and Pump Up The Jam and has played at many events and various clubs including Schwarzer Reigen, Heavy, Lounge Noire, Fête Bizarre, Goththing Dark Valentines, Danse Macabre, Electronic Fallout, Jump The Fuck Up, Schattenwelt Festival, Battle Axe, Rock It Club, Club Q and others.
