Slip into the underground at VERTIGO, a night of dark and heavy techno that’ll reverberate straight from the abyss into your ears.
Featuring some of the Valley’s most indulgent DJs and noise makers ZBS.FM, WHALETAIL, MOLLGOTH, DJ HELLO, and HEDON.

DJ HELLO has been honing her craft in the harder styles for years. Producing the Hardstyle 4 A New World event at 10 Forward, she seeks a new hard dance music, mixing blistering classic sounds with heavenly clairvoyant textures and ditching the grandiose for the eccentric.
