Thermal at Aquarius Zagreb arrives this Friday, May 8, bringing a high-intensity night of underground techno to one of Zagreb’s most recognizable club locations overlooking Jarun Lake.
Set across the open-air terrace of Aquarius Klub, the event marks another ambitious booking from the Thermal promoter team, this time featuring Croatian debut performances and internationally respected names connected to the deeper and more uncompromising side of contemporary techno.
Leading the lineup is Developer, the Modularz founder whose raw, hypnotic sound has become a defining force within modern underground techno. Known for powerful extended sets, analog-driven textures and relentless groove-focused energy, the Los Angeles artist has built a global reputation through performances at some of the world’s most respected clubs and festivals, while his Modularz label continues shaping the harder edge of the international techno landscape.
Joining him is Blanka of SK_eleven, making her Croatian debut. The Berlin-based artist has gained recognition for her emotionally charged and atmospheric approach to techno, balancing hypnotic rhythms with precision-driven sound design and deep underground energy. Her sets move fluidly between tension, groove and immersive late-night momentum, making her one of the more exciting names currently emerging within Europe’s techno circuit.
With Thermal curating the night, the event continues the collective’s growing reputation for bringing internationally respected underground artists to Zagreb while maintaining a strong connection to authentic club culture and carefully selected lineups.
Aquarius Klub’s lakeside setting at Jarun adds another dimension to the experience, combining open-air energy with the darker aesthetics of warehouse-inspired techno programming. The venue has long remained part of Zagreb’s nightlife identity, particularly during warmer months when terrace events become central gathering points for the city’s electronic music community.
Doors open around 10 PM, with tickets and additional event information available through Resident Advisor and the promoter’s official Instagram channels.
For fans of hypnotic, groove-heavy and uncompromising underground techno, Thermal at Aquarius Zagreb stands out as one of the stronger bookings on Zagreb’s May club calendar.
