This year’s roster features high-profile techno artists such as I Hate Models from France, and Sara Landry from the USA. The French producer Shlømo, frequently hailed as the “Papi” of hard techno, will also be gracing the stage.

After a seven-year break, acclaimed Naples DJ, Deborah de Luca, will be making her much-anticipated return. The festival will also welcome new faces like the British artist Azyr and the Dutch artist Dyen. In addition, Franck, an up-and-coming producer from Scotland, will be making his first appearance.

Joanna Coelho, a crowd-pleaser from the Winter and Xmas editions of Sound Waves, will be performing for the first time in Esmoriz. Other performers include Miss Sheila, a well-established figure in the national techno scene, and VENDEX, renowned for his dark rhythms.
