Line-up:

Adriana Lopez

One of the headliners of Radost Factory 2026 is none other than Colombian techno purist and icon Adriana Lopez, who has been an unwavering part of the electronic club scene for more than 20 years. Adriana Lopez began her musical career in the late 1990s in her hometown of Bogotá. In 2003, she moved to Barcelona, ​​which opened up opportunities for her to tour worldwide in top clubs and festivals around the world such as: Berghain, Tresor, Fabric, Rex, Grelle Forelle, Awakenings Festival, Stone Techno Festival, DGTL Festival and many others. With strong determination and dedication to his artistic vision, he refuses to conform to any trend. Adriana Lopez is a pillar of strength and authenticity. Her flawlessly mastered technique can enchant the audience with a characteristic combination of physical and dark techno. Her sound resonates at a deep level. It's the perfect balance between power and delicacy, without over-the-top action or overcrowded textures. In his DJ sets, he develops a broad, rich and complex vision of techno, which he never adapts to a conventional sound. Her sound is dark yet groovy and its rhythm and energy offer a pure escapist experience. With each of his performances, he creates an exceptional, atmospheric dynamic. She released her own production based on raw, hypnotic and energetic techno on labels that support this sound such as PoleGroup, Semantica, Stroboscopic Artefacts, Modularz, Mord and on her own label Gray Report.

Kuss

A prominent name of the new generation of the French techno scene. His production ranges across several genres, but always maintains a characteristic hypnotic and mental signature with tribal and mysterious elements. He can also naturally create energetic club techno, as well as experiment with ambient, downtempo or progressive rock in his side project. In his DJ sets and live performances, he is constantly looking for new forms of sound and atmosphere. His music is based on personal experiences, emotions and moments, which he transforms into an intense club experience. In 2021, he was noticed by the French label Skryptöm, on which he released three successful EPs. He also released his work on respected labels such as Maison Close, Drawner Records, Canticle, Molekule and Agora Records. He collaborated with names such as Zadig, Electric Rescue, Mac Declos or Antigone and performed in clubs such as Essaim, Khidi, Fuse, RSO and Levenslang.

Loktibrada

Among the stars of the 7th edition is Loktibrada, a legend of the Slovak club scene and one of the creators of Bratislava's underground sound. Loktibrada, originally DJ Dalo, is one of the most important figures in Slovak techno. For 30 years, he has been consistently shaping the sound of techno in his own handwriting. First in Úček and later in Subclub together with Toky, he belongs to the pioneers of Slovak techno. His sets are dark, hypnotic, precisely constructed - every rhythm has its own weight, every drop pulls you into the electric tension of the dance underground. As a producer and co-founder of the Palicavonzvreca label, he defines Slovak techno and unites the domestic and international scenes. His B2B sets with Toky, Regis and Takaaki Itoh have become cult moments in the club's history. At Radost Factory Loktibrada will take you to a night full of hypnotic rhythms and electronic energy. His name is synonymous with quality, his sets are unforgettable - everyone who has experienced his performance knows that it is an experience that resonates long after the last beat.

Hasky

He is one of the names that has kept underground techno in Bratislava alive for a long time without adapting to trends for effect. His sound is based on groove, hype and raw techno, while in his sets he combines old school with current club sound. As a resident and organizer at Radost Music Club — one of the last purely techno clubs in the city — he has been building a community around the underground scene for years, connecting local DJs with international names. In addition to playing, he is also involved in events, the RDST label and projects that are not created because of hype, but because of a real relationship with techno. Over the years, he has appeared alongside names such as Oscar Mulero, Dax J, Len Faki and Reinier Zonneveld, and his sets are built more on atmosphere and gradation than on first-plan moments. Hasky represents a generation of DJs for whom techno still means culture, community and long-term building of the scene — not just a weekend trend.

Majsko

Majsko is one of the stable names of the Bratislava underground and has long appeared alongside Hasky in Radosti and at events around the techno collective Techno Gang. His sets are based on an energetic groove, a dark atmosphere and a sensitive build-up of pressure on the dance floor. He is part of the young generation of DJs who grew up directly in the club environment and perceives techno not only as music, but as a community and a lifestyle. Regular performances in Radosta and the WAX2 club helped him to profile his own sound, which works equally well in an intimate club and in open air. Majsko represents the local scene in a natural way, but with an emphasis on consistency, atmosphere and real contact with the audience. It forms a significant part of the new wave of Bratislava underground techno.
