This King's Day, we are bringing back Code Orange. This time as a free techno and electro event, not in the club but at a new location in our building and in the alley outside.

Especially for this day, we bring Rotterdam's techno best kept secret Stranger, pure cratedigger and Spielraum resident Afra & local hero Sander van Otterlo to Club Smederij for a daytime party.

No tickets needed!

Tipped as being one of Rotterdam’s best kept secrets in Techno, dj/producer ‘stranger’ moves in mysterious ways and has quickly proven to be one to watch. His first musical appearance in 2014 was quickly picked up by established names as Dave Clarke, Sven Vath and Marcel Dettmann, giving his career aswell as his own Self Reflektion label a major kick-start. While remaining in the background pushing forward talented artists and working on various projects such as the highly anticipated Paling Trax label, his dj-career is on the rise. His name can be found on the line-ups of some of the biggest clubs and events in techno such as Awakenings, Tresor and many others. This is not your average ‘unknown artist’

Afra is right at the forefront of the underground where the electro, techno and acid meet. She takes equal inspiration from the Dutch West Coast as she does from Detroit, from the rawness of Berlin and the realness of her native Rotterdam scene, and pours it all into her own electrifying and all-vinyl sets.

Afra is a true crate digger and vinyl lover. The imperfections that come with the medium and the focus that is needed to mix black gold give her endless energy and a rush of goosebumps. The last year has seen her play Boiler Room and cult clubs Bassiani and Berghain as well as hold down a residency at much loved Amsterdam queer party Spielraum. At any of these places, you can be sure she will serve up unpolished, emotive sounds that pack an emotional as well as physical punch, all with tight technical skills and a knowledge of exactly what to play and when, whether playing time bangers or deeper warm-up sets.
