DAY 2 – Live Act
So. 15.11.2026 / 21:00
📍B72
With a live performance of the Moroccan musician Gaouta.
Drums, guitar, synths, vocals, machines: @gaouta_does it all, with her signature intensity. A leading figure in the Moroccan music scene, she blends post-punk, new wave, ’80s sounds, and Darija in tracks that explore toxic relationships, patriarchal violence, and a loss of direction. Somewhere between a prom that goes wrong, a teenager’s bedroom, and a heavy drumbeat. High-energy!
Listen to Gaouta's Music here.

Qamareen aka Luna Al-Mousli spins your favourite feel-good SWANA sounds, seamlessly blending pop, indie and electronic beats. Her sets take you on a musical journey where the lyrics are as important as the melody. With قamareen, every night is illuminated by the magic of two moons, ensuring an unforgettable dancefloor experience that fuses the nostalgic rhythms of the past with the beats of the future.
Abu Naima Coming from a hiphop background and making music for decades, he has always been on the lookout for interesting sounds and styles while traveling or exchanging with local musicians and family. his spectrum ranges from the nostalgic golden age of Arabic music in the 70s to current bassy club music.
Whether on vinyl or self-made digital edits be prepared for a rollercoaster-ride trough SWANA music on the dancefloor.
This event is in collaboration with Makaani.
This event is sponsored by Start Wien Kultur (MA7).
