Welcome to the first purgation of 2026. Catharsis invites BL:ND for an all night b2b ritual with Josefine Hellström.

BL:ND (SE)
Based in Malmö, BL:ND is a techno DJ and producer emerging from Sweden’s underground with a sound shaped by industrial textures, hypnotic structures and driving rhythm. His musical identity is strongly influenced by hands-on work with hardware machines and modular systems, forming an elemental and percussive approach to techno. Moving through trippy, tribal patterns and tight grooves, his sets unfold through tension and release, shaped for dark, immersive dancefloors.

JOSEFINE HELLSTRÖM (Catharsis)
It is the raw tonality and temperament that makes Josefine a fearsome reputation as a selector. Straight to the point with elements of colorful melodies, reflected through infectious tribal-esque rhythms and old school flavors – is what appears throughout her music and in her sets. Her techno is a powerful intent to build tension, climaxing into a frenzy of emotions. After 10 years in the industry, affiliated with crews like Klubb Döden and Alleycat Anthem in Malmö, 2022 marked the premiere of Josefine’s club Catharsis as a part of her residency at Inkonst.
