Hybral is a Berlin based trans/ queer DJ and producer focusing on the darker and more atmospheric side of electronic music, ranging from contemplative cinematic ambient and more introspective and slower ritualistic leaning techno to rough, fast, industrial and uncompromising hard techno - capturing feelings of anger, anxiety, chaos, fear, tension, desire and pain.

Through layering dark, driving, distorted and seductive beats with trembling textures, dystopian soundscapes and hauntingly eerie atmospheres, Hybral not only increases the intensity and energy throughout their sets towards the end, but also shows a different side of hard and industrial techno that is more inward looking, evolving and mind-bending while still maintaining a hard hitting sound experience. 

By using awry harmonies and chaotic noise, Hybral intends to express how queerness disrupts and reorders norms by not following accepted paths and normative sound aesthetics. Their tracks shake listeners into a state of hypnosis, disorientation and ask to question ourselves and our position in society. Alarming timbres, modulated ominous atmospheres and distorted kick drums, noisy and in reverberation immersed percussions evoke the power and necessity of movement and destruction as a source of change. 

Hybral is founder of the queer label and event series SUBVERTED that is focusing on drone and noise infused dark industrial techno - from ambient, atmospheric and hypnotic techno to raw and relentless hard techno. SUBVERTED is intending to bring new and previously unheard perspectives to the dance floor and open the industry's gates for a new generation of artists that are pushing their own unique and fresh take on dark industrial techno.

They are resident at both SUBVERTED and DURCH and releasing on labels like The Brvtalist, Vast Perception, Gegen and Pure Hate 000. Hybral especially gained their reputation through releases on Paula Temple’s label «Noise Manifesto» and SNTS’ sub-label «Sacred Court». 

Hybral’s tracks are being continuously supported by Paula Temple, SNTS, Swarm Intelligence, Tommy Four Seven, Tham and more.

We curate queer sex-positive parties with equally queer line-ups, featuring mostly non-binary and trans DJs. Our aim is to platform artists with gender identities that are under-represented in the music industry, showing that it is possible to have more inclusive and diverse booking practices without a decrease in musical quality, but in fact with an increase by bringing new and previously unheard perspectives to the dance floor.

Discovering and nurturing new talent is at the very essence of SUBVERTED. We stand in resistance to the homogenisation and sanitisation to which the techno industry has been subjected in recent years via formulaic, easily-digested productions and repetitive line-ups, and intend to continue opening the industry's gates for a new generation of artists that are pushing their own unique and fresh take on dark industrial techno.
