Bass Night: Kaval, Farkoner & DRAMA.

In 9 days dj set

Bass Night: Kaval, Farkoner & DRAMA is a DJ night held at Café Tropisme in Montpellier, in the Occitania region of southern France. It serves as the closing evening of Festival Dernier Cri and is staged in collaboration with DRAMA, a collective based in Montpellier.

The night

The programme centres on a b2b set by Kaval and Farkoner, two of the names on the bill. They are joined by DRAMA members Leyka, V:Ra and Freak Show, so the evening moves between the collective's own artists and the festival's guests. The sounds are bass, club, breakbeat, techno and UK styles, which makes for a night that shifts in pace and texture rather than staying in one groove.

The venue

The event takes place at Café Tropisme, which is linked to Ateliers Tropisme at 121 rue Fontcouverte, in the Café Tropisme area of Montpellier. It is a good fit for visitors who want a club-style night in a cultural space connected to the local music scene, rather than a large arena.

Before you go

The event is listed on the Café Tropisme agenda, where you can find the most current details for the evening. Montpellier is a lively university city, so the night can easily be combined with a walk around its centre, and a visit around the festival's closing date suits anyone interested in the city's independent electronic music.
