Songpot · Amsterdam Dance Event 2026

An emotive electronic producer, and the Ruby Emma lineup places him after Afro house and driving grooves, so expect a warm, melodic, late-room set rather than peak-time abrasion. The music sits in a club-friendly lane with vocals and polished low-end, built for steady lift rather than shocks.

More about Fritz Kalkbrenner

He comes out of Berlin’s post-Berlin Calling orbit: the 2008 ‘Sky and Sand’ connection with Paul Kalkbrenner made him a crossover name, and he’s kept a long club career going since. The festival text also notes his Nasua Music imprint, launched in 2018, alongside releases on Universal Music/Virgin Records.
