SLEPE is a Riga-based DJ delivering high-voltage sets where breakbeat tension, hardgroove drive, and stripped-back techno lock into a relentless, forward-pushing flow. Shaped early by Depeche Mode, The Prodigy, and Underworld, his sound is driven by atmosphere, lift, and pure obsession rather than genre rules. After cutting his teeth curating and playing his own nights at Lokal House, Saulart, and One One, he’s taken that energy into unconventional spaces - from a former Soviet-era bunker to warehouse-style club floors - and through the Netherlands with Smoke Shed Crew. Now back in Riga after three years deep in the rave circuit, Slepe moves between the A-Meant collective and Smoke Shed Crew, delivering tight grooves, raw intensity, and sets built for the moment when the room disappears and only the pulse remains.

For one night and one night only, our positively rambunctious curator of freaks, weirdos and degenerates will be setting aside his usual happy-go-lucky fractal fuel for a much darker, sultrier vibe. Expect unseen amounts of emotional manipulation from Johnny Depo’s long-archived but never forgotten selection of EBM and Techno. This is where it all began for him, and where he wants to take you back to.

Bacchus Beats is a sonic shapeshifter blending refined funk, electro heat, and broken grooves into sets that are classy, funky, freaky, and undeniably sexy, curated with confidence, style, and a masterful sense of flow that moves bodies and moods alike. From intimate lounges to packed dance floors, his sound flirts between sophistication and raw energy, creating an atmosphere that feels timeless, magnetic, and just a little dangerous.

Beauty is created not so much by the things depicted, as by the very need to represent them.

This need gives strength, through the process of accepting everything that is tangible.

Depict your beauty, hoist up and know - there is no going back.

MIKASS is exploring the space between electro, indie dance, and techno-rooted energy. Drawing from multicultural influences and a love for analog textures, his sound balances driving rhythms, nostalgic synths, and dark-yet-uplifting atmospheres.
Focused on groove and emotional tension, MIKASS crafts dynamic sets and productions that move fluidly between hypnotic depth and forward-pushing dancefloor momentum.

Dance with the Devil starts with a hoist - and there is no going back.

First one to hoist up - Plastic Outlaws. Living for the moment when the room dissapears and the beat takes over. Sharp grooves, dark shimmer, sleazy indie & just enough vocals to keep you hooked.

Lock in - there is no rush to leave. Once you get hoisted, there is no going back.

The button’s been pressed and there’s no turning back - on February 13th, HOIST is cranking up the volume and taking over Korpuss for round two!

This time we’re going deeper, darker, and staying out way past bedtime. The rhythms are heavier, the space is bigger, and MIKASS is celebrating his birthday by dragging you all into his beautiful chaos. The Year of the Horse is his to claim.

Our EBM will rattle your bones. Our Indie Dance will pull you sideways. Our Techno won’t ask permission.

Dancing is still your only way out of this - but this time, we’re not letting you out until past sunrise.

Warning - once you get hoisted, there’s no going back. We start at 22:00!

Where: Korpuss, Viskalu Iela 36a, Rīga
When: 13/02, 22:00 - ????
Lineup: MIKASS, Johnny Depo, Slepe, Bacchus Beats, U+2235, Plastic Outlaws

Most of you probably already know this by heart, but for those who need a little reminder - HOIST is taking off TOMORROW! 💥

Come join us at from 22:00 to 4:00, dance your heart out with Koninklijx, PARTNERS IN USB and MIKASS, and treat yourself with a nice tattoo by .ink or by the surprises dropped by White Chew & Glick.

It doesn’t matter whether this will be your first ever DJ set or you’re a big electronic music enjoyer with years of experience - we’ll be happy to see each and every one of you tomorrow! 🪩

Bold moves or bold tattoos? You won’t have to decide between these two on Saturday because you’ll be able to get BOTH 🤩

Here’s a message from the wonderful tattoo artist .ink who’ll join us on December 14: “I have been drawing for a very long time, and I’ve been told that I have a distinctive style so I decided to start tattooing. I mostly make graphic illustrative works, I like to work with pink and red ink but I also use black 👀

For the event, I have prepared a special funky flash sheet for the guests of HOIST. It will be possible to choose different colors and sizes! You can pay in cash or by bank transfer (all designs will be 30-40€). If you are not yet ready for a tattoo - be sure to come chat and grab my stickers ⭐️

I can’t wait for the event - both because of the music and because I want to create new tattoos for you all. See you on the dancefloor!” 🪩

KONINKLIJX is the new kid on the block. Fresh back from the Netherlands, he’s ready to spin the vibe with funky house beats mixed with groovy rhythms and an occasional vocal from your grandma’s favourite disco track, bringing it straight from the 80s 🕺🏻

KONINLIJX (or Nick, let’s ground it for a bit) gained his inspiration from the time spent abroad: “I think the main thing I want people to remember from my music is the ability to lose yourself in the crowd and feel at one with the beat, no matter the type of people around you or the setting - be it a club, a coffee shop or the basement of your best friend; we all live in the moment and want to have an amazing night.” 🪩🙌🏼
