THE THIRD MUCH-ANTICIPATED EDITION OF TIME WARP'S "TWO DAYS / TWO STAGES" RETURNS WITH EVEN MORE TALENT THIS NOVEMBER

This compact but high-impact concept is all about cutting-edge sound and production across the Maimarkthalle and Maimarkt Club at Time Warp’s spiritual home of Mannheim. It is the last show before 2024's historic 30th Anniversary of Time Warp and buying a ticket for this event gets you prioritised access to the presale for that one. 

Playing this formidable two day party will be an exciting selection of artists and the most diverse mix of sounds and scenes Time Warp has ever assembled. Many of them will be making their much anticipated Time Warp debuts such as Italian powerhouses 999999999, rave maker and Houndstooth artist Anastasia Kristensen, new generation French talent Anetha, a unique live show from Brutalismus 3000, Berlin based Clara Cuvé, Kiev based Berghain regular Daria Kolosova, melodic techno’s Deborah De Luca, the exuberant psychedelic techno of FKA.m4a, Madrid trailblazer Indira Paganotto as well as KI/KI, Somewhen, SPFDJ and Trym plus returning favourites Sven Väth, Nina Kraviz, Black Coffee, Tale Of Us, Adam Beyer, ARTBAT, Kobosil, PAN-POT, Patrick Mason and many more.

Now this carefully distilled version returns once more for two days of serious sound from a mix of young and fresh talents and returning favourites.

This unique, no-filler all-killer celebration of underground music from the vanguard is one of Time Warp's most unique events.

ECHOES FROM AGARTHA REVEALS MOUTHWATERING LINE-UP FOR RETURN TO CAPPADOCIA FEAT. BEDOUIN, BLOND:ISH, DIXON AND MORE

Echoes From Agartha is one of the most cultured and unique blends of music, art and travel in the world. It runs from July 26 - 31st 2023 in the breathtaking ancient landscapes of Cappadocia in the heart of Anatolia, Turkey and this year will be headlined by Bedouin, Blond:ish, Dixon, Keinemusik, Echonomist, Guy J, Parallelle, Caleesi & Sarah Kreis, Savage & She, Mercan Dede & Secret Tribe (Live), Murat Uncuoglu and many more.

Echoes From Agartha happens across different venues that are all unique and utterly magical. The Zion which is inspired by the Matrix and located in a narrow canyon with tall rock formations that hug the dance floor, creating a cave-like illusion. The IO, a valley surrounded by ancient caves and fairy chimneys dating back to the 4th century and The Yunak Evleri, a rooftop venue that hosts a special sunset party surrounded by the cave rooms. New for this year is Saruhan Caravansary, Friday show in a historic caravanserai, or roadside inn, from the Seljuks Empire where travellers could rest and recover from the day's journey. There will also be an extra after party for 1200 people in Karakus, a vast ancient cave after the events in Zion and an extra opening cocktail party in the Argos Hotel.

The soundtrack is a deep, spine tingling mix of classy and quality house and electronic from some of the most revered names in the game such as Saga party founders and Human By Default label heads Bedouin, the melodic mastery of Blond:ish, Innervisions founder Dixon, the ever on form Keinemusik, Greek stylist Echonomist, prog innovator Guy J, the acclaimed Parallelle duo plus more from the likes of  Caleesi & Sarah Kreis, Savage & She, Mercan Dede & Secret Tribe (Live), Murat Uncuoglu, Erdi Irmak, Borak, Cihangir Cinar, Eda, Ezgi, Zoe Dona and The Ace Brothers.

Away from the music, Echoes from Agartha has a wealth of local culture, customs and cuisines to explore. You can plot your own adventure with horseback riding, open air museum visits, classy dinner parties, traditional Turkish arts workshops, cave exploration and hot air balloon rides. All this is for only a few lucky people as the capacity remains limited despite huge global demand, all as a way of keeping a special intimate vibe at the festival.

Echoes from Agartha is a dream-like experience, a mix of music, culture and travel and once in a lifetime opportunity to head to this most historic region with a carefully curated soundtrack.

The festival presents diverse forms of artistic expression, emphasising tolerance and creativity. The artistic vision of the festival comes alive through a variety of eclectic performances, installations and visual art, with all manner of vegan food, a sauna, workshops and plenty more to make it a weekend to remember.

Lake Helene is a beautifully natural and organic setting for this community minded gathering with the phenomenal lake and its pristine waters backed with scenic surroundings for a genre-fluid combination of energetic trance and dynamic techno.

There are local hotel options, or camping on site is included in the ticket price and you can expect next level production that brings the whole thing to life as well as a queer and diverse community of ravers from around Berlin and the international psy and techno community. 

Says the Director, "As an alternative to the digital spheres of individualism, Reflex creates an analog space to collectively explore changes in perception, thought, and action. Through our joyful gathering, we create a safe space for each other, characterised by respect and creativity. Reflex is a place of collective exchange, searching to clean the slate of ideas that have been imprinted on ourselves, prompting us to transform our experiences into new trajectories for a more tangible future."
