Oscura brings its signature progressive sound to Manchester for the very first time—an immersive daytime journey rooted in deep, melodic frequencies and atmospheric grooves.
We’re proud to welcome three internationally respected names in the genre:
Zankee Gulati b2b Mike Rish (Sudbeat, The Soundgarden, Replug, Meanwhile)
Two of Australia’s finest progressive exports go back-to-back for an exclusive UK performance.
Zankee Gulati, known for deep and emotionally charged journeys, is joined by Mike Rish—one of the scene’s most respected underground producers, whose groove-focused, textured sound is gaining global attention. Expect something rare, raw, and completely absorbing.
EMPHI (Solis, Meanwhile, Mango Alley)
From Sweden, EMPHI is a rising name in the progressive and melodic techno scene. Known for cinematic atmospheres and hypnotic layers, he delivers emotionally resonant sets built around groove and story.
