Making .Wavs presents: Cold Storage

About this event

Join us as we journey into a subterranean techno soundscape for charity.

We'll be underground for this event, located in a basement cold storage space at the Niagara Frontier Food Terminal.

The six-hour musical journey will feature sets from Buffalo's own Chango4 and Orocue.

The genre-juggling DJ/producer, Chango4, will be blessing us with an offering from left-field. Their aim is to take the room on a transtemporal journey through crystalline synth textures and melting drum machines that teeter between acid, dub and all other bleeps in between. Drawing on deep & rich sonic history from across the Great Lakes, specifically Detroit, they hope to invoke the roots of techno.

Daniel Prada (aka Orocué) is a DJ, producer, and founder of EXIT/ENTER (@exit.enter.series). Originally from Colombia and recently relocated to the United States after a decade spent shaping grassroots spaces in Buenos Aires, Daniel centers his work around community-driven club culture. As a producer, he explores deep, hypnotic techno, with releases including his debut EP on Concepto Hipnotico and his second album, Radio Nostalgia, on Achalay Records. Behind the decks, he's shared the booth with artists like Antenes, Elias Garcia, Peace Debt, and Idiom. He's played events including Rochester's Sole Rehab, FLUID, and Buffalo Underground for the MIA Festival, and curated mixes for Sandoz Community Radio (Japan), Tucca Premiere (Argentina), In Process (Rochester), SENSE (Brooklyn), and Mild Fantasy via Veneno (US/Brazil).
