23 Jahre halle02 – Fritz Kalkbrenner

In the organizer's words:

23 years of halle02 - too old for children's disco, too young for elevator music. So let's celebrate in the hall with melodic techno, warm bass and harmonies that go straight to the heart (and legs). Fritz Kalkbrenner, Natascha Polké and Alicia Hahn provide the soundtrack for a night that more than does justice to the 23rd birthday of our beloved location! Are you celebrating with us?

Fritz Kalkbrenner grew up in the vibrant Berlin of the post-reunification era and found his way into the techno scene through his brother Paul. In 2008, his distinctive voice became world-famous with Sky & Sand, a song that became the anthem of a generation. With his debut album Here Today Gone Tomorrow (2010), he shaped his unique sound - a fusion of house beats and melancholic vocals. After successful albums such as Sick Travellin' and Ways Over Water, he established himself as an internationally sought-after live act. His music combines electronic profundity with catchy melodies and has also reached the charts with hits such as Back Home. In 2018, he founded his own label, Nasua Music, to secure creative freedom. In 2024, he took off with new releases - including the album Fall Between The Cracks!

Natascha Polké, a talented musician from Zurich, seems like a born rock star on stage, although she describes herself as introverted. With a Master's degree in music and an impressive career in music production, particularly in London, she has established herself as a creative artist. She discovered her passion for electronic music at Wembley Studios and live performances, which she began in 2022. Since then, she has released on renowned labels such as Anjunadeep and performed in hip clubs and festivals worldwide.

German DJ and producer Alicia Hahn captivates with her atmospheric melodies and hypnotic grooves. Since her DJ debut in 2021, she has established herself in the scene with innovative synths and exceptional percussion. Whether at international festivals or alongside acts such as Adriatique, Alicia Hahn leaves a lasting impression. With a background in classical piano playing and a growing career as a producer, she is one of the most exciting new talents in melodic house and techno.
