BICEP present CHROMA (AV DJ set)

Who wouldn’t leap at the chance to relive one of the most unforgettable dance experiences Athens has witnessed in recent years? Following their tectonic appearance at OAKA on April 30, 2023, Bicep are back in town under the banner of the Athens Epidaurus Festival for yet another dance saga. This time, they bring with them a groundbreaking laser LED show—featuring technology never used before in the country—alongside two stages and an expanded lineup that includes Modeselektor and Future666. On July 11, one thing is certain: this will be the event that will linger long after the summer fades.

Hailing from Belfast, childhood friends Matt McBriar and Andy Ferguson have turned Bicep into one of the most trailblazing electronic duos on the planet. Renowned for their razor-sharp curatorial instinct, they navigate the boundless universe of dance music—and beyond—with an unmatched vision, securing their place at the forefront of global electronic music. What began in 2008 as the Feel My Bicep music blog soon evolved into a music avalanche, finding its natural home in the legendary Ninja Tune label. Since then, Bicep have swept every major festival in Europe with their mind-bending audiovisual shows, achieving something rare in today’s music industry: becoming a classic name in an era that hardly favours legacy artists. Along the way, they’ve earned the stamp of approval of “hard-to-win” tastemaker institutions like Resident Advisor, Pitchfork, and Mixmag.

Now based in London, Bicep continue to preach the gospel of British electronica, approaching dance music with the same burning passion they felt when they first met at the age of eight. So, see you on the dancefloor—for a show destined to become a thrilling memory.
