Mar 4: Anetha
Having made her production debut in 2015, Anetha is a relative newcomer to the techno world. But don’t let that fool you into thinking that she’s not got the chops. As a DJ, Anetha has been ripping up France’s underground electronic scene as a resident at Blocaus, one of Paris’ most important new club nights. This week she brings the party to Lantern, home of techno in our fair city. As well as hypnotic but danceable rollers, the young DJ is known for featuring a bit of 90s throwback. (Although we mean ‘90s throwback’ in a techno sense. No Ricky Martin, sorry.)
