@electricrescue is one of the most respected and enduring figures in European techno, with over 36 years of artistic and cultural activity. Widely regarded as one of the key “made in France” names in electronic music, he has built a career defined by consistency, independence, and a deep commitment to underground values. His productions are regularly played by some of the most influential DJs in the world, confirming his long-standing impact on the global techno scene. As a producer, Electric Rescue has released music on many of the genre’s most influential labels, including Cocoon, Arts, F Communications, Soma, Sci+Tec, Boys Noize Records and Cod3QR, alongside his own imprint Skryptöm, founded in 2006. His sound is uncompromising and personal, rooted in rave culture while constantly evolving.

Known as a discreet but highly effective techno activist, Electric Rescue has consistently defended the core values of rave culture — sharing, freedom, brotherhood and underground spirit — while rejecting the superficial spotlight of the DJ business. His discography includes several conceptual albums, and his creative momentum remains strong: new releases and ambitious collaborations continue to mark him as a key figure in contemporary techno well into 2026.

Lisbon-born CRAVO @cravomusic has shaped his sound through study, community and a steady respect for swing and syncopation. Trained in audiovisual arts, his first steps in music happened in 2007 through reggae and dub while at Caldas da Rainha. PeterSmiling and the I’n’High Sound System gave him stages and a first set of original tracks. In 2010 he turned to techno, pivoting to a tempo and palette of textures that were once offlimits. In 2011 he formed -2 [menosdois] with Vasco Guerreiro. The duo explored the rougher edges of the genre and created small experiments that were the blueprint for what was to come. That circle widened in 2017 with HAYES Collective, a platform CRAVO helped shape alongside his friends VIL, Temudo, Nørbak, Enkō and Autrane. Together, they built a catalogue and a following who listen closely and affectionately to its output, quickly becoming one of Portugal’s leading techno imprints. Today, his sets and music releases share a clear internal thread. Call it a vibe if needed. There is soul and a forward pull in all of his work and his tracks carry the weight of a broad musical experience. As a solo artist he focuses on techno and house lineages that value emotion without losing drive. CRAVO’s releases are spread across a multitude of labels, notably on Klockworks, SK_Eleven and HAYES, with new steps under his label Carícia. Curation is also part of the work. In 2021 he joined Enkō and VIL to start SUMMA, an event series now regular at Outra Cena in Lisbon. The room’s postapocalyptic architectural mood sets a frame for forward thinking techno with hints of the classic school. Slots usually run long, often three or four hours, and upcoming national artists are given space to build trust with the crowd. The result feels a little like a cult, restrained but powerful.
