Songpot · Amsterdam Dance Event 2026

Fakear’s music sits on soft-edged synths, clipped drums, and bass that leans more warm than brutal. The 2025 mixtape 'open world' and the new album 'a nice place to be' point to a set that moves between headphone detail and low-end club pressure, with cleaner melodies and a relaxed glide.

More about Fakear

He comes out of Caen and the French electronic scene, where his Bandcamp bio places him among the newer names in the country’s bass-music revival. The festival text adds the earlier post-dubstep and Miyazaki tilt; the recent releases on his own Bandcamp show he’s still working in that lane, with albums and mixtapes that keep the production glossy and personal.

A story

His parents raised him on Ravel, Ismaël Lô, and Cheb Mami before he found Daft Punk and guitar. In their own words
