ctrl NIGHTS: DJ Stingray 313 [USA-DE], Andrew Red Hand, șerban b2b persu, Admina & JB 18+

Another legendary night is set to happen at Control on March 7, as one of the electronic music scene’s most renowned figures, DJ Stingray 313, takes helm in Room 1 with his highly unique sound and heavy imprint in the development of electro and techno. 

Born and raised in Detroit, Sherard Ingram began his musical journey as a DJ in the late 1980s, honing his skills and building a reputation as an innovative and experimental artist. He made a significant impact on the electronic music scene with his work as part of Urban Tribe and his collaboration with Drexciya's James Stinson. As part of the live unit for Drexciya, he helped to create a unique sound that caught the attention of fans and critics alike. 

Conjuring a torrential storm from the DJ booth, his sets are as intense as it gets, as Ingram is nothing short of a menacing node in the vast tangle of electronic music. His nexus of electro, house and techno articulate abstract dynamics and touch on both retro and future visions that play on a bandwidth of its own. 

Dubbed by as the “Romanian Detroit electro/techno pioneer”, Andrew Red Hand joins the lineup as an unwavering militant of the underground. Having played blistering, mind-bending sets at Berlin’s Tresor, Griessmuehle or Krake Festival and released mixes for Radio UR (Underground Resistance), The Grid (Detroit Techno Militia), Groove Magazin or Trax Magazine, this Iași-based artist will surpass expectations with his fusion of futuristic beats.

The Bucharest-London connection of șerban b2b persu will cover the opening set, exploring icy sounds, idiosyncracies, as well as female undercommons, feeding the flow of the party from the get-go.
