La Cave 12 is an underground concert venue in Geneva dedicated to experimental and improvised music. The association programs live concerts, collaborations, and special projects across electronic, acoustic and noise genres, hosting international and local artists. Its intimate, exploratory atmosphere supports artistic risk-taking and continuous experimentation within Geneva’s cultural scene.
Raed Yassin presents Eternal Ghost, a solo project blending analogue synths, electronics and voice into a hypnotic, immersive and evolving sonic performance. Yassin sculpts dense textures and shifting atmospheres that oscillate between minimalism and moments of catharsis. The evening also features a specially curated DJ set by Passage de Disques (CyrilBongoJoe & Fuxy Lady), offering complementary rhythmic and vinyl-driven explorations that extend the event’s nocturnal sound world.
Veteran noise outfit Ramleh deliver an electric, rock-tinged set led by Gary Mundy on guitar, Stuart Dennison on drums, Anthony Di Franco on electric bass and Kevin Laska on synth. Their charged, abrasive sound blends distorted guitar, dense percussion and swirling electronics into a confrontational live experience. The evening continues with record selections by La Poya and Fuxy Lady, extending the event’s raw, underground energy.
Sneers, an Italian duo led by Greta Blaankart (electric guitar, vocals) and Leonardo O. Stefenelli (drums), delivers an intense, melancholic odyssey through dark/occult rock. Their new record, (Don’t Quit Before) The Miracle, produced by Jamie Stewart (Xiu Xiu) and released on God Unknown Records, frames a possessed, atmospheric soundscape. The set is laced with ritualistic rhythms, haunting melodies and moments of raw catharsis, complemented by a vinyl passage from NuRe OnnA and Fuxy Lady.

Reuniting after roughly thirty years, Dazzling Killmen return with a fierce, uncompromising sound that blends pre/math rock, post-metal, hardcore-punk and jazz-core textures. Their intense, tightly wound compositions unfold with brute energy and intricate rhythms. The evening also features a specially curated DJ set by Passage de Disques (Bamba Triste and Fuxy Lady), weaving experimental grooves that complement the live assault and expand the night’s sonic palette.
Anthony Pateras presents a new solo piano set that synthesizes compositional and improvisational practices from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Drawing on electroacoustic techniques and radical sound exploration, the performance assembles a lexicon of approaches, textures and extended techniques into a single structural live block. Expect a rigorous, curiosity-driven sonic journey that blurs composition and improvisation, revealing virtuosity, meticulous timbral detail and adventurous formal thinking.
Rorcal marks its twentieth anniversary with a visceral vernissage celebrating the release of its seventh album, Mahre. Pioneers of Geneva’s underground sound, the band bends and distorts the vocabularies of doom, black metal, industrial and drone into a ritualised, oppressive performance. The performance features dense textures, abrasive dynamics and stark sonic architecture that privilege atmosphere and intensity over conventional melody, delivering an immersive, dark and devastating experience.
