909:RAVE returns | Friday 26 July | TRUTH, Midrand

After a string of high-voltage editions, 909:RAVE returns to the iconic TRUTH , one of South Africa’s most infamous underground strongholds - a venue etched into the DNA of our rave culture.

This edition brings three floors of full-scale audio warfare , led by two headliners at the top of their game:

⚡ LYAH NOIR on the Terrace

Hailing from Germany’s fierce techno circuit, Lyah Noir fuses bouncy rhythms, raw techno power, and trance-driven euphoria into one blistering experience. With appearances at major festivals like AirBeat One , SonneMondSterne , and Open Beatz , and club mainstays such as Bootshaus and Lehmann , she now lands in South Africa for the first time – bringing her emotionally-charged sets to the Truth dancefloor.

🌀 HEADROOM in the Basement

South Africa’s own Adam Metcalfe, better known as Headroom , brings over two decades of pure tech-psy wizardry to the underground. Internationally respected yet deeply rooted in local soil, his sound is a warm gateway into the psychedelic realm – blending genres and generations with soul, charisma, and his signature hypnotic groove. Expect a set that challenges boundaries and expands minds.

Upstairs, our local regulars lock in the third floor with precision, groove, and late-night firepower.

This is more than a party. This is a rite of passage.

Three floors. One night. No compromises.
