FORMAT x Eerste Communie: MARRØN / AMORAL / Hitam / Measure Divide

On December 5, we welcome Amsterdam's Eerste Communie to Toronto for a special gathering curated by the collective.

For this occasion, we are delighted to bring our communities together with a lineup featuring MARRØN, AMORAL, Hitam and Measure Divide.

MARRØN, the Amsterdam-based DJ and driving figure behind Eerste Communie, has become one of the most recognizable names in contemporary techno. His approach draws on rolling percussion, rhythmic movement, and an instinctive connection with the dancefloor. Through Eerste Communie, he has helped cultivate a community that extends well beyond Amsterdam, bringing a distinct musical philosophy to clubs and gatherings around the world.

AMORAL and Hitam come together for a back-to-back session, bringing their individual approaches to hypnotic, groove-oriented techno into a shared musical conversation.
Both artists have developed their own identities within the contemporary underground, with an emphasis on rhythm, subtle progression, and the relationship between music and movement. Their pairing offers an opportunity to experience these two perspectives together.

Completing the lineup is Toronto's own Measure Divide, whose work as a DJ, producer, and founder of FORMAT has connected the city's underground community with dancefloors across the world. His sound moves between hypnotic textures, intricate rhythms, and deeper explorations of techno, reflecting a longstanding commitment to the music and the culture surrounding it.

This gathering represents a meeting of two communities that share a common appreciation for the music and the spaces in which we experience it.

We look forward to welcoming you.
