Scene
The club night SCHLAG returns to the Zagreb scene with a new edition taking place on 5 December 2025 at the Autonomous Cultural Center Attack (Pierottijeva 11). This time SCHLAG brings LO-LOW, one of the most exciting names of London’s queer underground, continuing its mission of creating a space where music, identity, and the body merge into one big shared sexy experience.
Before the pandemic, SCHLAG operated as a queer clubbing event that offered the audience a safe space for freedom of expression, dance and togetherness. From the very beginning it was conceived as an event that empowers the queer community and nurtures the values of rave culture, authenticity, inclusivity and freedom. SCHLAG has always been a place where the body can move instinctively, where the energy can be felt in the air, and where people recognise each other in a look, a touch and rhythm.
The need for spaces that bring together music, identity and creative liberation remains strong, and SCHLAG wants to continue creating exactly such an environment. Through multidisciplinarity, sensibility and openness to different artistic practices, SCHLAG strives to create an event that is both intimate and energetic, gently provocative and deeply collective. It is a place for exploration and surrender, a space that creates a sense of belonging and pulses with that special and authentic kind of closeness.
For this special night SCHLAG hosts LO-LOW, one of the most exciting figures in contemporary queer clubbing in London, a DJ and artist whose sets merge house, electro and high intensity techno into a dark, emotional and fluid flow that guides the audience through levels of tension, closeness and complete euphoria. She describes herself as a techno warrior with a fluid approach to genres, and on the dancefloor she is as gentle as she is relentless.
Her eclectic and energetic sets regularly push the boundaries of purism and open space for a more experimental, livelier and more emotional approach to clubbing. As a resident of the Yes Babe! collective and a member of the Kromanti agency, LO-LOW has performed alongside numerous notable artists such as Cashu, CEM, DJ Bone, DVS1, DJ Heartstring, Floorplan, Mall Grab, Overmono, and many others. She has left her mark on clubs and festivals such as Phonox, Fold, Radion, Boiler Room, Milkshake Festival and Maiden Voyage, and her performances in Beirut, Berlin, Amsterdam, Bologna, and Brazil have earned her a reputation as an artist who simultaneously elevates and destabilizes the dancefloor in the most creative way.
Before fully immersing herself in music, LO-LOW worked as a journalist for CLASH Magazine, which strongly shaped her understanding of the music industry and the cultural context in which she operates. She is the co founder and co host of the Melatrois show on Reform Radio, a curated space dedicated to conversations, music and platforming voices shaping the new generation of the electronic scene. She has also collaborated with a number of projects and collectives, including Black Techno Matters, AMPFEMININE, Tech Couture and BCCO, and participated in the Fold Talks series dedicated to empowering underrepresented voices in electronic music.
She recently launched her concept Soft Domination, an artistic platform that explores softness, power, vulnerability and intensity through music, aesthetics and performative expression. Soft Domination expands her distinctive approach to clubbing and creates a space in which emotional depth, sensuality and physical energy merge into a unique club narrative.
Her performance at SCHLAG will be the first presentation of her newest creative chapter to audiences in the region, and a night where a set is expected that will push boundaries, ignite the body and open a space for true collective release and connection.
The club programme on 5 December is completed by the residents.
Androv is the newest member of the SCHLAG family. His sound is raw, a movement of flowing energy, a blend of tribal rhythm and modern techno. Raised on the edges of the Adriatic and shaped by rhythm, he creates a hypnotic and vivid world on the dancefloor.
DJ WHATEVER, an Amsterdam based DJ and producer, has been part of SCHLAG’s creative story since the very beginning. Her sets carry fast BPMs, scattered beats and a sonic tension that connects the hypnosis of techno with the sharpness of broken beats. A sound crafted for the dark room, the strobe and sweaty bodies.
Doxia has been one of the key figures of the Zagreb scene for almost ten years. An organiser, initiator, educator and protector of the queer community, she weaves chaos, care and togetherness into her work. Her sets are energetic, resonant and focused on the dancer rather than the clock. For Doxia a true rave is always a ritual and without connection it has no meaning.
The visuals of the evening are created by Iv_, an artist whose work exists between music, the body and digital structures. She performed as the bassist and VJ of the band ŽEN, and through her electronic project Sataraxz she explores the intense and delicate edges of sound. Her visuals combine translucent bodies, neon lines, rhythm, glitch and intimate textures of movement. Iv_ does not create scenography but a living layer of atmosphere that guides the audience through the entire night.
SCHLAG remains committed to creating a space where everyone can feel safe. There is zero tolerance for transphobia, homophobia, racism, sexism and any form of violence or harassment.
