MÉTROPOLIS 1 opens on Friday, August 28, 2026 at MTELUS in Montréal at 22:00 as part of MUTEK Montréal 2026. The night charts a voyage through techno's history and future, combining modular synthesis, precise textures and organic ambience.
Cleo Leigh (CA), Newfoundland's Shauna Gilpin, performs "Romance by Design", a modular-synthesis live set drawn from architectural inspiration, spanning electro, techno and acid. Berlin's Berghain resident JakoJako (DE) follows with a set balancing technical rigor and intuitive techno sensibility.
Detroit techno pioneer Jeff Mills (US) presents the North American premiere of "Stargate", a sci-fi-inspired live set. Munich-based Polygonia (DE), aka Lindsey Wang, closes the night blending techno, bass, breakbeat, house, IDM and jazz influences.
