Songpot · Amsterdam Dance Event 2026

Straight-ahead club techno with acid lean and dark, driving sequencing built for late-night pressure.

More about Karlheinz

The festival bio frames him as a producer who came up through hi-fi and audio hardware, then moved back into production after years around high-end playback. He’s also part of HAKA Project with Haldo; a SoundCloud release blurb describes that duo as the meeting of Aldo 'Haldo' and Francesco 'Karlheinz' Manu, with a dancefloor-focused label in the deep tech to melodic techno lane.

A story

He chose the name KARLHEINZ as a tribute to Karlheinz Stockhausen. In their own words
