Curses, a key figure supported by prestigious labels like Dixon’s Innervisions and Gerd Janson’s Running Back, comes to VENT!

Having drawn widespread attention for his vocal work on an Âme track, he is a singular talent known for transforming 80s influences like post-punk, disco, and new wave into contemporary club music.

The lineup features Mustache X, who hosts Outro alongside DJ Nobu at Enoshima Oppa-La and has developed a style that actively crosses boundaries across dance music, alongside Manaha, organizer of Togenkyo at VENT, who has supported artists including Tornado Wallace and Soichi Terada.

Room 2 features Haruto, who performs as part of the unit and party Onomatope and guides the floor through a genre-crossing selection rooted firmly in dance music, shaping each set like a continuous story; Onsawa&tkc, a Kyoto-born DJ duo who brings heat to the floor with a groovy sound centered on deep tech and minimal; Pilz Kenner, organizer of H.O.F, whose selections explore the open space within electronic music through hard-edged, melancholic afro house; and J@sco, organizer of Strawberry Field, who builds a distinctive world around minimal techno, acid, and electro, with a strong emphasis on narrative and feeling.
