Schlachthof Sessions is curated by Giangee — DJ, producer, and someone who’s always believed in the power of music when it’s given space to breathe. The idea is simple: to create nights where music truly matters. Where artists can express themselves freely, without pressure or pretence. The vibe is closer to a hidden room than a club — warm lights, honest sound, and a crowd that listens. No ego. No formulas. Just deep grooves and shared moments. From dubby rhythms to hypnotic house and beyond, every session is a carefully crafted journey. We pause after our final date on July 4th, and return in September, recharged. This isn’t about trends. It’s about presence. It’s about the art of sound. 16.5. FR - #1 – Davide Piras B2B Giangee 23.5. FR - #2 – Overriver 30.5.
