Safety Trance b2b Manuka Honey

Born and raised in Venezuela but currently based in Barcelona, Luis Garban kicked off his career in the early '00s, curving fragmented breaks through rave's vaporous remnants under the Cardopusher moniker. But since teaming up with Arca on her acclaimed 'KiCk' series - notably co-producing the Rosalía collaboration 'KLK' – he's been additionally working as Safety Trance, putting his own futuristic spin on rowdy old school reggaeton and splitting it with wild-eyed industrial and EBM elements. The hybridization is best witnessed on 2022's Boysnoize-released 'Noches de Terror', and his raft of collaborations with Isabella Lovestory, LSDXOXO, VTSS, Florentino and others.


With a run of acclaimed records like 'Industrial Princess', Florentino collaboration 'Machete' and the esoteric and sensual '3Eternities Beneath You' under her belt, Manuka Honey writhes on edges of the dancefloor, rattling Latin-American and Caribbean rhythms through a skintight mesh of cathartic noise. Also a multi-disciplinary artist, a professional astrologer and a DJ, she brings a lavish, galaxy-brained energy to her mixes, playing "sexy, unpredictable and hard" sounds from the furthest reaches of the world.
