25:T2836,

With major international headliners and prominent artist names like Paul Kalkbrenner, Argy, Adriatique, Ben Klock, Maceo Plex and Indira Paganotto among this year’s bookings, Reworks has plenty to attract anyone planning a few days in Thessaloniki. But its ⁠completed programme, announced on 8 September, also gives us good reasons to look beyond the most immediately recognisable names. From the opening hours of its afternoon events to the final stretches of its club sessions, Greek artists have been placed throughout the five-day programme, proving that Reworks continues a relationship with the city’s electronic music community that ⁠began in 2005. And this year is another chance to hear just how varied those artists - and the scene they come from - really are.

19 Artists, Many Directions

The festival’s announcement highlights 19 Greek or Greece-based acts: ISON, Momery, Athineos, Agape, VaJohn, Myrophora, Penny Morado, Modal Cat, Pinelopi, Cnthia, Decø, Thravsma, Nases Morur, Low F Signal, Vertical Slope, Bellas, MayDay, Kiki Botonaki and Dest.

Their presence stretches across different venues, stages and moments of the festival rather than being limited to a single local showcase. More importantly, these names do not represent one uniform “Greek sound”. House, melodic electronics, dub techno, acid, breaks and the deeper or more forceful ends of techno all have a place within the programme.

Inside the Greek Lineup

ISON connects much of that history. A founding member of NON and one of the people behind Reworks, he has helped develop the environment in which many of these encounters take place. Behind the decks, his references stretch across house, techno and Detroit, giving his sets a range that is difficult to reduce to one genre. His Saturday-night appearance in BLOCK33’s Warehouse, directly before Modeselektor, is worth catching for that breadth alone.

Momery offer another perspective on the relationship between Thessaloniki and the wider electronic circuit. The duo’s melodic techno has travelled through releases such as “Ophelia,” selected by Mind Against for the first release on HABITAT. It is a useful introduction to their balance of atmosphere, melody and dancefloor tension. On Friday, they appear at LABattoir’s Atrium directly before Adriatique, making their set a natural choice for listeners already drawn to that side of the programme.

There is reason to arrive before them, too. Myrophora opens the Atrium with a musical vocabulary that moves through progressive and melodic house, techno influences and occasional pop references. Her set gives the afternoon a more open starting point before Momery and Adriatique gradually take it elsewhere. Rather than treating the earlier slot as waiting time, the sequence works better when experienced from the beginning.

The programme becomes particularly interesting when artists with different instincts share the booth. Agape’s background in DIY parties informs selections moving between acid, house, electro and indie dance. VaJohn brings techno and breaks influences, alongside experience rooted in Thessaloniki’s Roxy Club. Their joint Friday-night appearance at BLOCK33’s Club offers a chance to hear where those approaches meet.

Local club experience also runs through Saturday’s pairing of Pinelopi and Penny Morado. Pinelopi’s approach centres on hypnotic progression and controlled intensity, while Penny Morado’s rolling techno retains a strong interest in groove, informed by earlier listening across soul, hip-hop and funk. Their 17:30–19:15 set at the Atrium gives them enough time to establish a direction together. If the later techno names are already part of your plans, this pairing deserves to be part of the afternoon as well.

Elsewhere, Thravsma and Nases Morur bring their shared connection to Ergotherapy to LABattoir’s Air stage. Both work with techno built through atmosphere, repetition and gradually developing tension, while Thravsma’s move to Berlin adds another thread between the Greek underground and scenes beyond it. Later, the ALEMAO connection appears through Decø and Cnthia, whose acid, trance and groove-led techno influences take over BLOCK33’s Club after Anetha. Their closing placement is a useful reminder that discovering local artists can sometimes mean staying until the final set, not only arriving early.

For a fuller picture of the artists and info about them, stages and set times across all five days, explore the full list of artist and the official Reworks 2026 programme.

Beyond the Booth

Reworks’ role is not limited to assembling a DJ lineup. Making its Greek debut on Friday, The Talk (AV Show) brings together Heith, Günseli Yalcinkaya and Andrea Belosi in a performance inspired by the Antikythera Mechanism. Combining live music, spoken word and audiovisual design, the project explores the ways technology influences perception and the stories through which we understand reality. Its development with Nuits sonores and Terraforma through TIMES also shows how festivals can participate in creating new work, rather than only presenting it once it is finished.

What Comes After

Being included in a festival of this scale can place an artist in front of new listeners. What follows (new releases, return bookings, collaborations and an audience that stays interested) determines whether that moment develops into something more lasting.

26:T1ccb,

Some lineups make sense because the artists sound alike. Others work because they bring something different to the same room. Full Circle’s September 19 return belongs to the second category.

WhoMadeWho arrive with more than two decades behind them and a Hybrid DJ Set that sits somewhere between their identity as a band and their understanding of the dancefloor.

Avangart Tabldot arrive from almost the opposite direction: three artists whose story is still being written, and who are currently moving through one of the strongest periods of their career so far.

Put them together at Playground 260, start at 17:00 while Athens is still in daylight, and let the event develop until 23:00. That is where this one starts to become interesting.

WhoMadeWho: A Band That Learned to Speak Club

WhoMadeWho have always been difficult to place neatly into one category. Tomas Høffding, Tomas Barfod and Jeppe Kjellberg came from different musical backgrounds, with electronic music meeting rock, jazz and songwriting inside the same project. Over the years, that combination has allowed the Copenhagen trio to move naturally between concerts, festivals and club-focused electronic sets without feeling like a band simply trying to enter DJ culture.

More than twenty years after forming, they are also far from operating on nostalgia. Their 2026 calendar alone has taken the Hybrid DJ Set through Sónar and a long list of Ibiza dates alongside artists ranging from Carl Cox and Anyma to Vintage Culture, while July brought “ENERGY,” their collaboration with GORDO.

And the word Hybrid matters here. The format combines the freedom and continuous flow of a DJ set with the approach of musicians who have spent their career writing and performing songs. Vocals, melodies and recognizable songwriting remain central to WhoMadeWho, but so does their long relationship with electronic club culture.

Athens knows them well by now, and so does Full Circle. The relationship goes back at least to their 2022 live appearance at the Benaki Museum, while Full Circle brought them back in 2025 for a four-hour set alongside Carlita at Goudi’s Army Park.

September 19 adds another chapter, this time in a different setting.

Avangart Tabldot: Catch Them at This Moment

If you have been following Avangart Tabldot’s sets and releases recently, you probably already understand why their name deserves equal attention on this lineup.

The Istanbul trio have built their catalogue across labels including Innervisions, Siamese, TAU and Ultra, but the last couple of years show something more important than a list of label names: momentum. In 2025 they joined Tripolism for “Groove On” on Ultra and again for “All Hearts Beat”, while their remix work returned them to Innervisions.

In 2026, Avangart Tabldot have continued building around their own community. They are among the people behind Istanbul-based Crib Records, where July brought “I’m Tango,” while just eight days before the Athens show comes “Love.exe", their new release on Exit Strategy.

That matters because this is often one of the best stages at which to catch an artist: established enough to have a clear identity, but still moving quickly enough that their sets don’t feel settled. Their own platform is growing, new music keeps arriving and their catalogue continues to spread across respected corners of the electronic scene. They aren’t simply the other name alongside the more established act on the poster. Their current momentum is one of the reasons this date is so well timed.

Why Playground 260 Fits the Idea

Full Circle has always paid attention to the space around the music. Its history in Athens, from the Benaki Museum to large-scale events at Goudi’s Army Park, reflects an approach where the setting forms part of the event itself.

Now Playground 260 offers a different environment. The wider Peiraios 260 complex is a former furniture factory and a surviving example of 1970s industrial architecture, later established as one of the main homes of the Athens Epidaurus Festival. Large former industrial buildings and sheds give the site a character very different from a conventional club.

And the schedule works with that setting. Doors open at 17:00, with Greek DJs/producers MAARKK and Man With The Speaker, both part of STYX Agency, the agency of Full Circle, handling the first tunes before the main acts. That gives you a good reason to arrive early, support the local artists and watch the music, crowd and space develop naturally as afternoon turns into night.

Why September 19 Is Worth Your Saturday

There is a nice balance to this lineup.

WhoMadeWho bring the catalogue, musicianship and years spent moving between band culture and electronic dancefloors. Avangart Tabldot arrive at a very different point in their story, with new releases, their own growing platform and plenty still ahead of them.

And Full Circle brings both together for six hours at Playground 260, from daylight into night.

There is also something to be said about how accessible the event remains. With the €26.50 first release already sold out, tickets have now moved into the second release at €35... still a very fair entry point for what the evening brings together.

27:T409,In the years since their inception WhoMadeWho have established themselves as one of the definitive underground bands of their generation. A group whose grasp of emotional depth, heartrending melody and inspired songwriting is exceptional, the Danish outfit is composed of Tomas Høffding, Tomas Barford and Jeppe Kjellberg. They have become renowned for their exemplary back catalogue, consummate professionalism and standout performances all over the globe, from Coachella to Sonar, to Burning Man, producing a plethora of albums, EPs, singles, and remixes on labels like Kompakt, Innervisions, Life & Death, and their own imprint The Moment. With Barfod’s penchant for electronic music poetically juxtaposed with Høffding and Kjellberg’s respective backgrounds in rock and jazz, their music is an electrifying combination of sounds, merging a variety of influences to produce a unique sonic fingerprint that is emotive, irresistible, and immensely satisfying.

Two days left until one of the biggest electronic music weekends of the year takes over Athens.

Two days, two stages and enough musical territory between them to make choosing where to be one of the hardest parts of Zamna x Primer Music Festival 2026.

On September 4 and 5, PRIMER returns to OAKA for a special edition created together with ZAMNA, bringing the Mexican festival brand’s darker, immersive electronic identity into PRIMER’s large-scale Athens format. The Helios Stage operates as the outdoor festival arena, while the Lunar Stage takes the experience indoors and deep into the night, running until 06:00.

The lineup stretches from foundational house and festival EDM to melodic techno, indie dance and psytrance. So rather than attempting to see everything, these are the sets dancetoday believes deserve priority... not simply because of the names on the poster, but because of what each artist represents, what they currently sound like, and how difficult it may be to recreate the same experience another time.

FRIDAY

AFROJACK - Helios Stage

There is a difference between hearing the records that defined an era and hearing them played by one of the people who actually helped create that era. Afrojack belongs firmly in the second category. Nick van de Wall was one of the producers at the centre of electronic music’s explosion into global festival culture during the early 2010s, with a catalogue that helped establish the enormous, highly engineered mainstage sound that dominated that period. PRIMER itself describes him as one of the defining architects of festival-era EDM.

That history alone would make the set significant. But nostalgia is not really the reason to see Afrojack. His sets remain designed around scale: aggressive transitions, sudden changes in energy, enormous low-end and the ability to move between EDM, electro, house and more contemporary festival sounds without losing control of a huge crowd.

At a festival like PRIMER, that skill matters. If Friday’s Helios Stage is where you want the full-scale festival experience, Afrojack is one of its clearest expressions.

ARMAND VAN HELDEN - Helios Stage

If Afrojack represents one important chapter in electronic music history, Armand Van Helden represents something even deeper. Long before “EDM” became an industry category, Van Helden was helping reshape house music. From his 1990s productions and remixes to records such “You Don’t Know Me”, "I Want Your Soul" and his later work as half of Duck Sauce alongside A-Trak, his influence stretches through several generations of dance music. His career has also included two Grammy nominations and performances across institutions ranging from Glastonbury and Coachella to Fabric, DC10, Berghain, Ushuaïa and countless others.

And this is exactly why his PRIMER appearance deserves attention. Artists from this generation are not interchangeable with the current touring circuit. You are seeing someone whose records became part of the vocabulary DJs still use today.

Expect house music with personality rather than excessive ceremony: groove, vocals, classics, left turns and decades of dancefloor knowledge condensed into one set. For anyone interested in where contemporary house culture actually came from, this is not merely another name on the lineup.

MRAK - Lunar Stage

MRAK is Carmine Conte’s individual world outside Tale Of Us. And that distinction matters. As one half of Tale Of Us and a co-founder of Afterlife, Conte has helped shape one of electronic music’s most influential aesthetics of the past decade. MRAK allows him to move away from the duo format and expose a more personal musical identity built around emotion, synthesis, atmosphere and cinematic tension.

Afterlife itself describes MRAK as an extension of Conte’s artistic identity characterised by warmth, emotion and depth. The project has developed through releases such as One, Manifesto and the recent Smoke EP. The most important is that he announced his debut album is coming & will include 33 songs. Primer will got a taste of it!

That makes his Lunar appearance particularly interesting. You know the universe he helped build. This is the opportunity to hear what happens when one of its architects operates alone.

MISS MONIQUE - Lunar Stage

Miss Monique has become one of the most recognisable names in melodic house and techno, but her rise is particularly interesting because it was built as much through DJing as through records. Her long-form streamed sets helped establish an enormous international following before that visibility translated into increasingly major festival bookings and becoming the founder of Siona Records and one of melodic house and techno’s major contemporary forces.

Her strength behind the decks is accessibility without completely abandoning progression. Melody is prominent, but so are momentum and tension. That makes her particularly effective with large crowds: melodic enough to create emotional peaks, driving enough to keep the room moving.

On a Lunar lineup full of darker electronic music, she represents one of Friday’s most immediate crowd connections.

STEPHAN BODZIN Live - Lunar Stage

The important word here is not only “Stephan Bodzin". It is “Live”.

Bodzin occupies a very particular place in melodic techno. His music is instantly recognisable through its synth architecture: expressive lead lines, repetition, harmonic tension and the kind of analogue timbres that can turn surprisingly minimal musical material into something emotionally huge. He has spent decades developing that language, and even describes the sound design surrounding Boavista through the analogue instruments and Moog Sub37 patches that formed the album.

But a Bodzin live show is fundamentally different from simply hearing a DJ play Bodzin records. The performance places his own compositions and machines at the centre of the experience, turning tracks into material that can be manipulated rather than simply reproduced.

Among Friday’s choices, this may therefore be one of the easiest to justify: You can see many DJs. You get considerably fewer opportunities to experience Stephan Bodzin performing his music live.

HI PROFILE - Lunar Stage

There is also a homegrown reason not to overlook Friday’s Lunar Stage.

Athens-born Anastasios Antoniou, better known as Hi Profile, has built one of the most internationally established careers to emerge from Greece’s progressive trance and psytrance scene. His journey has taken him to major electronic music stages including Tomorrowland, Ultra, Airbeat One and Green Valley, while this summer he returned to Tomorrowland 2026 as part of the festival’s Planaxis lineup. In 2019, he was also recognised by UNESCO Greece for his contribution to promoting Greek heritage through electronic music.

Musically, Hi Profile brings something noticeably different to Friday’s Lunar lineup. His sound moves between progressive trance, psytrance and broader electronic influences, combining melodic elements with the faster propulsion and euphoric release associated with trance. Over the years, his music has also received support from artists including Armin van Buuren, Paul Oakenfold, Astrix, Vini Vici and Charlotte de Witte.

And for dancetoday, there is another reason this set belongs on the list. Supporting Greek artists does not mean lowering the bar; in this case, the international career already speaks for itself. Seeing one of Greece’s most established trance exports representing the local scene on a lineup of this scale makes Hi Profile a set worth prioritising.

SATURDAY

AXWELL - Helios Stage

If we had to choose one set across the entire weekend, this would be it! Axwell is dancetoday’s most anticipated performance of PRIMER 2026 edition.

Not simply because he is one third of Swedish House Mafia, or because of the enormous catalogue attached to his career, but because solo Axwell has always been something slightly different.

Axwell is fundamentally a DJ’s DJ.

Underneath the records, awards and Swedish House Mafia mythology sits an exceptional understanding of house music: phrasing, tension, release, vocals, groove and (perhaps most importantly) timing. His Axtone years also became inseparable from an era in which progressive house could simultaneously be emotional, technically sophisticated and enormous.

What makes this appearance even more valuable is scarcity. Swedish House Mafia performances naturally dominate much of the collective’s touring presence, while individual Axwell dates remain comparatively selective. Even the official Swedish House Mafia schedule currently shows only a small number of announced solo Axwell appearances around this period, including Athens, Karachi and Tokyo.

That changes the equation. This is not simply an opportunity to hear Swedish House Mafia records in Athens. It is an opportunity to hear Axwell construct a set as Axwell!

For longtime house listeners, producers and DJs - and for anyone who lived through progressive house’s defining years - this is the set around which we would build Saturday. Do NOT miss it!

INNELLEA B2B MORTEN - Helios Stage

This could be the weekend’s wildcard. On paper, Innellea and MORTEN come from two different ecosystems. MORTEN became synonymous with the Future Rave movement developed alongside David Guetta: enormous festival dynamics, dark synths, rave structures and mainstage pressure. Innellea traditionally arrived from the deeper melodic-techno spectrum, but his recent direction has widened considerably. Following The Belonging and 2025’s Finding Home, his 2026 releases including “Slave to the Hype” and “Bounce Music” point toward a less predictable, increasingly genre-fluid phase.

Put the two together and there is no obvious script. And that is exactly why their B2B is fascinating. The pairing is officially listed for September 5, making it one of the edition’s genuinely unusual collaborations.

Will Innellea pull MORTEN somewhere stranger and deeper? Will MORTEN drag Innellea into full festival-mode aggression? Or will they find a completely different middle ground. We do not know. And that is the point. This has all the ingredients to become one of PRIMER 2026’s most talked-about sets.

MIND AGAINST - Lunar Stage

Few acts understand the relationship between melancholy and club music quite like Mind Against. Alessandro and Federico Fognini have spent years developing a sound where techno propulsion meets deeply emotional synthesis and influences extending into IDM and cinematic electronic music. Alongside their long relationship with Afterlife, they have gradually expanded their own artistic ecosystem through HABITAT Records.

Their sets tend to reward patience. Rather than constantly searching for immediate drops, Mind Against are capable of letting atmosphere accumulate: dark passages, restrained melodies and long transitions eventually becoming much larger emotional releases.

At 02:00 or 03:00 inside Lunar, that approach makes substantially more sense than it does on a sunny afternoon. This is exactly the environment in which Mind Against should be heard.

ADAM TEN - Lunar Stage

Adam Ten represents another side of the current electronic landscape. Less cinematic than Mind Against and considerably more playful, his sets move through indie dance, house, melodic elements, unexpected vocals and elastic grooves. Through Maccabi House and releases across labels including Diynamic, Crosstown Rebels and Hot Creations, he has become closely associated with a new generation of dance music that refuses to sit comfortably inside one genre.

That unpredictability is precisely the attraction. Adam Ten sets can feel less like watching an artist reproduce a predefined aesthetic and more like following a DJ continuously test where the dancefloor is willing to go. For dancers rather than spectators, this is one to circle.

OMIKI - Lunar Stage

Omiki may be one of the most strategically interesting bookings on the entire lineup.

Originally rooted in psytrance, he has increasingly collided that world with the melodic-techno ecosystem. The evidence is already in the music: recent collaborations with Argy include “WIND,” “RITMO” and 2026’s “MANTRA,” while his catalogue continues to move between melodic house & techno and psytrance rather than choosing one side.

That crossover gives his sets a particular weapon. Psytrance can inject a level of speed, propulsion and rhythmic intensity that becomes dramatically different after hours of melodic techno.

And sometime deep into Saturday night (or technically Sunday morning) that may be exactly what Lunar needs.

If You Can Only Choose a Few…

Zamna x Primer 2026 has enough depth that there is no objectively correct route through the weekend. But there are performances whose context makes them harder to replace.

Armand Van Helden for the history.

Stephan Bodzin for the live format.

MRAK for the chance to enter Carmine Conte’s solo universe.

Innellea B2B MORTEN because nobody really knows what that collision will produce.

Omiki for the crossover between psytrance intensity and the melodic-techno world - and for the kind of high-energy late-night set that could completely change the character of Lunar.

And, of course, Axwell because opportunities to experience one of house music’s defining artists operating alone are simply not something we would take for granted.

If there is one piece of advice from dancetoday heading into Zamna x Primer Music Festival 2026, it is this: Don’t only chase the biggest drop. Choose the sets you may not be able to experience the same way again.

And one more thing: don’t overlook the Greek support acts. Kalamo on Friday’s Lunar Stage, and Da Mike and FILIPPOS on Saturday, deserve a proper crowd too. If you can, get there a little earlier, give them your energy and support the local scene instead of showing up only when the biggest names take over.
