We all know that the festival season has begun. It’s here and they’re all running smoothly and without a hitch. The last one to take place was Sónar, and it was amazing. Do you want to know what our next stop will be? The Balaton Sound.

Well, in case you didn’t know, Balaton Sound has announced its second batch of acts for its elrow and B stages, each of which features some of the biggest and most influential acts in contemporary techno, minimal and house music, backed by visual and sonic production.
This new announcement brings with it a huge selection of new headliners and the creme de la creme of international DJs, including techno legend Richie Hawtin, Deborah De Luca, Fisher and many more. Martin Garrix, Becky Hill, Lost Frequencies and others will also be present.
Among these names on the bill are British DJ and techno producer Jamie Jones and Italian DJ Joseph Capriati, who in case you didn’t know has recently become one of the most sought-after artists in the world’s club and festival scene. And wait, because another German techno legend and CLR label founder Chris Liebing, German techno duo Pan-Pot and Meduza are also joining the line-up. In addition, one of the heroes of today’s global techno scene, Reinier Zonneveld, will show the Balaton Sound audience his impressive discography with his unique live set that rocks the dancefloor.
