Mutek x Nightclubbing

This collaboration emerged naturally, as Jen has developed a sincere attachment to Montreal and its scene over the years.
They have notably had the opportunity to perform at MUTEK and collaborate with Quebec and Canadian artists. This provides a glimpse into their programming of electronic music and digital arts, whose curation, as inquisitive as it is demanding, makes them an essential reference on an international scale.
We will find live performances from Honeydrip and Tati at Miel , rising stars of the Montreal scene, as well as DJ and producer Maara , also from Montreal and now an essential figure on the international electronic scene, in b2b with Jen Cardini.

A unique lineup, blending bass, dub and ambient

Honeydrip (live), a key figure in Montreal's underground electronic scene for the past ten years, is a bass music producer, DJ, and sound system builder—she also leads workshops for women and LGBTQ+ individuals. Drawing on dub, reggae, and dancehall, she delivers a dense, bass-heavy live sound experience, designed as a total immersion into her sound system universe.

Tati au Miel (live) was born and is based in Montreal. Of Haitian descent, Tati au Miel draws on improvisation and the traditions of musique concrète and Haitian spiralism to create intimate experiences of sound, performance, and installation. They recently released Tati au Miel (deluxe edition) (2025, PTP) and the Carousel EP (2023, Halcyon Veil), and composed the music for Bhenji Ra's film Biraddali, Dancing on the Horizon.

She made her live debut in Montreal at the MUTEK festival.

Jen Cardini , a French artist who spent time in Berlin and is now based in Lisbon, has been a key figure in the global club scene for over 30 years – from their beginnings at the legendary Pulp in Paris to major festivals and clubs, including appearances at MoMA PS1 and the Centre Pompidou. Through their mixes, their label, and their productions, they have helped redefine the perception of French electronic music, placing transmission and the queer community at the heart of their practice. They are the driving force behind the Nightclubbing project.
