Sickmode headlines FEARZ at Le Bikini in Toulouse

There is something unmistakable about a room full of rawstyle fans: the melodies build, the kicks arrive and suddenly everybody seems to know exactly what to do. Karnage brings that atmosphere to Le Bikini on 11 December with FEARZ, led by Sickmode and joined by Kenai, Schlot, STV and Micella. Sickmode has become a familiar name in modern hard dance through his colourful approach to rawstyle, mixing huge melodic moments with forceful, distorted rhythms. The wider lineup looks towards the uptempo and hardcore worlds that have grown around the European harder-styles community. The music starts at 11:55pm in Ramonville-Saint-Agne, just outside Toulouse. This one is for listeners who enjoy the big emotional contrasts of hard dance as much as its sheer speed. It is a different part of electronic culture from the city's usual techno nights, with its own traditions and audience.
