From its technological beginnings some decades ago, Russian electronika has evolved into a sophisticated art. Combining sound with elements of video and theatrical performance, the Russian dance hall has become an artistic experiment; the people in it have become co-authors in their own right. Russian ACT has invited the most talented proponents of this movement to end the festival with a blast!

Arkady Air + Fliegerschule are dubbed as Russia’s brightest pair on the clubscene, whereas veteran DJ Zorkin is a guarantee for doing that all hands in the air – until the lights go on! VJ Acidburn will make those dreams last…

This Russian all-nighter is the closing event of Russian ACT No.5, a Russian contemporary culture festival, organized by marka:ff with the support of the Russian Ministry of Culture.
