About the concert
We're thrilled to have techno-prodigy Decoder to take the reigns for a special all night long set. This is a unique opportunity to witness so many sonic flavors in one night by a powerful new force in the global techno scene.
In the DJ booth, Decoder treats performance as a direct extension of the studio. Sets are often built largely from unreleased material, functioning closer to live testing grounds than traditional DJ performances—ideas are trialled, stripped back and reshaped in real time with close attention to the room. After formative experiences at warehouse parties and renegade events across Texas, he began touring internationally while still in his teens, logging sets at the likes of De School, FOLD and Watergate. 2025 marked a significant turning point, with an acclaimed set at Waking Life and his debut at Berghain.
Alongside releasing on established labels, Decoder runs two imprints: Codec, a community-focused platform for collaborative projects, and TOCA, a more purist, physical-only label emphasising longevity and restraint. His forthcoming album Prakasa, released on Planet X, represents several years of studio development and reflects his continued interest in cohesion across time, genre and form.
Now operating internationally, Decoder represents a measured reinvention of techno, one that looks forward without severing ties to the past. Retaining the independence forged in Dallas warehouses and DIY parties, he remains an artist shaped not by trends, but by curiosity, patience and a disciplined belief in the power of simplicity.

Gautham Garg, better known as Decoder, is a Dallas based producer/DJ specializing in the
realm of sci-fi & deep techno. His music personifies his forward thinking ideas as well as his
cultural roots, making for a blend of retrofuturistic soundscapes and experimental shades of
electronic music.
Early in March 2021, Decoder saw his first release "The Futurist" come to life on the Italian label "Antiterra". Following the EP came a consistent schedule of releases, including releases on labels such as Bomphcast, Srie Records, and his own imprint Codec Recordings. The year also saw the release of his first album, "Monolithic Activity Spectrum" on the Spanish label "Subsist". Decoder ended the year with his second album release "Dark Shape", which was put out on Jeff Mills' legendary imprint "Axis".
The first half of 2022 showed no signs of slowing down, as Decoder's "Moro Safa EP" was released on
Amsterdam based label "Float Records". It also saw the third full length album titled "Plurality Module" released
on Subsist, as well as his follow up release on Float Records titled "Kanavugal".
These releases have also garnered Decoder support from many artists including the likes of Richie Hawtin,
Jeff Mills, Ben Sims, Jeroen Search, TWR72, to name a few.
Decoder's touring schedule has also seen notable moments, including shows played for notable clubs &
parties such as De School, Fold, Cialo...
