Self-taught singer-songwriter and beatmaker Danyl began publishing live tracks on Twitch. Of Franco‑Algerian origin, he blends raï, US rap and French chanson to create a personal sound. His collaborations include Zamdane, Tuerie, DJ Kore, Oxmo Puccino, Stony Stone and Rim’K. On his first album ZMIG (2026) he reclaims a pejorative term to probe social determinism and the double stigma of his origins. The music resists categorization while pushing cultural boundaries.

Tess Giordano is a singer-songwriter who accompanies herself on guitar and piano. At 17 she brings a clear, intimate vocal presence to songs that blend pop sensibility with contemplative textures. Her single “Promises” has been played on Couleur 3, and she has performed at festivals including Montreux Jazz Off, La Folle Semaine and Gena Festival. As a composer she has contributed to Compagnie Confiture’s musical and the play Quand viendra la vague, and co-wrote a song for the TV series L’Appel de la forêt. Her live set favors close, acoustic moments and warm, lyrical storytelling.

5 – 8 October

Three improvisers and composers — Maël Godinat (piano), William Jacquemet (trombone) and Pierre‑François Massy (double bass) — present a program of original material and carefully chosen covers. Arrangements emphasize close harmonies, intimate interplay and attentive listening, letting sparse textures open into rich, resonant chords. The trio’s sound balances lyrical phrasing with rhythmic subtlety; lighting and silence shape moments of suspended time, inviting a contemplative, warm atmosphere that reimagines harmonic conversation in the moment.

22 September – 29 November

Two short plays by Anton Chekhov staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel, presented as compact dramatic machines where romantic comedy masks escalating confrontations between desire, affection and material interest. Performances rely on precise physical timing, terse exchanges and a lean, playful design to reveal the simmering violence behind courtship rituals. The three actors — Estelle Bridet, Matteo Prandi and Raphaël Vachoux — inhabit heightened character types that shift between farce and darker comic truth, creating a sharply observed, kinetic evening.

Presented by Electron Festival, Detroit Legends gathers pioneers Cybotron and Dopplereffekt for a dialogue between two foundational visions of techno. Their early experiments fused futurism, electronic machinery and African-American musical culture, shaping a sound that still echoes across generations. The evening opens with Geneva’s Orphia, whose analog textures, metronomic rhythms and luminous atmospheres form a bridge between origins and contemporary electronic practice. Three live sets, multiple generations, a concentrated portrait of the lineage and emotional force of Detroit electronic music.
