Everything down to the smallest particles is constantly reacting with one another. Everything we know and we do in the universe is the result of countless complex reactions happening as much in the quantic level of reality or in our realm of reality. Theses cause and effect processus are the product of a dual conception of gravity that used to be incompatible but are now in the way of being unified into one big soup theory that we could call Quantaloop.

Quantaloop, the brainchild of Etienne Sarrazin and Pasquale De Luca, have
established themselves as trailblazers in the psychedelic community with their unique brand of twisted techno music. Drawing from their deep knowledge pool of electronic music knowledge their style aims to blend the best elements from many different genres while staying true to their psychedelic roots. Their sound is known for being unique and instantly recognizable in any set due to its technicality married with a constantly evolving but very much dance floor groove.

This unique blending of genres and ability to tell a story through music has
allowed them to release on some of the most prestigious labels and play on
some of the biggest festival stages around the world. They have released on the biggest labels in the psytech genre such as Zenon Records, Alpaka Muzik, Techgnosis Records, and Soupherb Records just to name a few, and 2023 saw them play in almost every major techno city across the globe.

Their journey started in 2016 when they both finished their studies in classical electronic music production and teamed up to make music that they both wanted to hear on dancefloors. As early as 2018 their first hits such as “Windmill Man” and “Expanding Elephants” started to get played by DJs around the world and this growth has not stopped since. Despite this early success Quantaloop has not stopped in their quest to constantly evolve their sound which makes every single one of their tracks unique studies of what can be done in electronic music.

LEEPUS is a luminous entity born from the energy accumulated by Trippy Sim through his deep immersion in the world of psytrance.
The embodiment of an inner metamorphosis fueled by psychedelic vibrations, LEEPUS emerged as a radiant, almost mystical presence — a being of light born from sound and spirit.

Often described as a cosmic rabbit, LEEPUS evokes the mythical Lepus antilocapra: an enigmatic fusion of light, legend, and imagination.
Through hypnotic sets where light dances with shadow, LEEPUS crafts a captivating sonic alchemy — weaving together deep grooves, celestial melodies, and powerful basslines to create performances that feel like electrifying rituals.

Step into the aura of an artist whose magnetic energy and mysterious presence transcend the dancefloor, inviting you into a universe where music becomes transformation.
