Songpot · Amsterdam Dance Event 2026

He works in chunky electro-house and techno with a bright, mechanical edge, the kind of set that leans on big drum programming, vocoder moments, and crowd-ready hooks. The festival context points to his live, interactive DJ angle rather than a straight club set, so expect performance tricks, tracks from the Zemixx orbit, and newer material around OVP3.

More about Joachim Garraud

Garraud came up as a key French Touch figure and the festival bio ties him to 30 years of production, live performance, and his Space Invader community. The official store and Discogs show a long-running catalogue through Zemixx, plus releases like Invasion 2011, 96/24, and Oscillation Vibration Pulsation 3 (OVP3), which puts him in the lane of producer-DJ craft rather than hands-off mixing.

A story

His collector’s book, I Love My DJ Life, is sold as a 528-page autobiography with QR codes linking to audio and video archives. In their own words
