The young Bern-based collective Vorspiel set out to make sexuality tangible outside of heteronormative expectations. Who is allowed to do what with whom? Sexuality is political. Vorspiel offers the joy of discovery and play, a sex-positive party that is neither limited to gender identities nor sexual preferences, a space that explores desire, sensuality and eroticism through performative interventions.

KA-RABA
KA-RABA is a Swiss-based DJ, curator, community organiser, and visionary founder of the OKRA Collective. Known for her hypnotic, bass-heavy soundscapes, KA-RABA creates immersive club experiences where Afrofuturism meets innovative electronic music. Her art crosses genre boundaries, taking audiences on transformative sonic journeys that are both challenging and deeply enchanting.
power puff
They use aerials, pole dance, and floorwork elements to defy gravity.
«Come,» they whisper breathlessly as they pass you. «Spin with us, fire devils!»
An echo reverberates off the walls.
Three winds transform into lascivious, writhing bodies whose ends are surrendered to the mother ring herself.
Hanging from the ceiling, swirling through chaos, they suspend the laws of time and space — «We’ve lost orientation!» they scream. And yet, where there is no up, there can be no down — only stray pearls of sweat searching for their way home to salty lagoons.
«Spin with us, little fire devils! Spin with us!»
HAUSVRAU
HAUSVRAU, the much-needed breath of fresh air for the white world of electronic music and performance art. As resident DJ at Kapitel Bollwerk (Bern), HAUSVRAU mixed many styles such as Brazilian funk, house, ballroom beats, Latin techno and all kinds of tracks containing pop references. She turns the dance floor into a place of joy and community, and one thing is certain: at the venues where she performs most often, she gets people sweating with her energetic sets. She is the fairy you didn’t know you needed, the art-loving DJ diva pop star!
Juli Lee
Juli Lee moves playfully across the spectrum of electronic music, deliberately ignoring genre boundaries. For her, one thing matters above all else: music must breathe and connect people. Her sets are spontaneous, intuitive, and respond directly to the moment, the space and the mood. She is not concerned with perfection, but with authenticity and emotional resonance. At the same time, music should also simply be fun.
In addition, she founded the record label klaus:elle with two other musicians in 2021, studies sociology and musicology part-time, and is committed to promoting greater diversity in the music scene, not least through her involvement with Helvetiarockt.
Areem
areem (he/him) once again transforms the Vorspiel dance floor into a space filled with ecstasy, connection and pure joy.
Beats that flow and drive, sounds that set bodies and hearts vibrating. Bass lines that resonate deep in the belly, interwoven with delicate melodies that make us float. This creates moments in which we can fall in love – with each other, with ourselves and with the magic of the night.
areem’s sound is playful and profound, a mixture of pulsating grooves and hypnotic rhythms that open up spaces where everyone is invited to let go, dance and unfold freely.
DJ Senn
DJ Senn combines driving beats with atmospheric soundscapes and live vocals. Her sets range from deep electronic journeys to energetic flows – an invitation to immerse yourself, feel and let go.
