b:3tter irl x Smokeshow x klub krai

After a huge success back in March, with a sold-out Garage Noord,  your favorite local event organisations get together again in their all-time favorite Amsterdam club, opening bar40 for lounging, catching up, flirting to chill dj-sets and a live act, and downstairs for dancing, flirting, head banging and bouncing.

Introspective club euphoria with all the bells and whistles (smoke and lights and decor) neatly stuffed into one sweet, nostalgic, 8-hour package. Featuring Soundcloud legends, bouncy avant-pop and a whole lot of local stars ★ 

Tracey (live)
Formed in 2024, Tracey is a London-based duo creating avant-pop unlike anyone else.

Their eponymous debut EP arrived as a surprise in the summer of 2025. Although it’s frontloaded with the undeniable banger “Sex life (feat. Riko Dan),” later in the EP, Tracey reveal their careful, slow, and atmospheric side: from the downtempo brilliance of “When I choose to be here with you,” to the touching emo-infused R&B of closer “Take Care,” Tracey are full of surprises. Followup Sleazy (2025) returns to the hyperactive dance arena, borrowing too from PC Music with its colourful acoustics and tight sample style. Raunchy yet thoughtful, bassy yet subtle, Tracey create an anomaly of sounds, likely informed by the eclectic influences they cite: among them, Kylie Minogue, Skream, and Crystal Castles. Having made it onto Skrillex’s latest album with dance pop hit ‘Tranki’, 2026 has also been a banner year for the duo.

Celeb

EVER
EVER (he/they) is a Netherlands-based DJ entangled in Amsterdam and Taipeiʼs queer nightlife. Heʼs an interdisciplinary artist and designer, and co-parent of Queer Asian initiative Eastern Playgrounds, rooted in a desire to create spaces of communal care and joy. He is dedicated to challenging stereotypes and standards of being, and to declaring legitimacy to changeable and transitional states–in bodies, monstrosities, genres and sounds. Schooled by the DIY underground dance floor from Taipei to Eindhoven, his sets are a full-throttle cross-genre cruise. He moves through breaks, experimental club, leftfield techno and alien textures with a rhythmically restless drive. Driven by heavy club sounds, he pushes the tension between control and collapse, where danger and playfulness collide.

Freestyler
Freestyler is the founder of the music label Transatlantic and a DJ based in Berlin. Having a deep involvement in the experimental club scene as both a curator and performer, Freestyler’s DJ practice is defined by unconventional connections and creating organic flows through a myriad of backgrounds and sound palettes. His work as the head of Transatlantic has turned the label into a touchstone of the contemporary club scene and has seen him work to facilitate projects with artists such as chickenmilk dot com, Europa, Talpah and Violent Magic Orchestra.
