Nature One 2016

Nature One 2016 is one of Europe's biggest open-air electronic festivals, and has been bringing the world's very best DJs to Germany since 1996.

 

Transforming a former NATO missile base into a huge, industrial dancefloor, ravers will party for three days and nights to house, techno, trance and more. 2015's lineup included Axwell ^ Ingrosso, Adam Beyer and Fedde Le Grand.

 

Curated by labels and promoters from across Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and the Netherlands, Nature One's cross-genre showcase has made it one of the continent's most popular destinations for electronic music lovers.

 

OPEN AIR FLOOR

 

It’s this very special moment on the Sunday morning: bang on time for the set of DJ legend Dag the sun cautiously climbs over the horizon. The OpenAirFloor has seen two fantastic nights. Mind-blowing acts, elated crowd, awesome light-LED-laser-pyro-flame shows, stunning sound – in a nutshell: total rave! And yet the last two hours are a truly very special highlight of each and every NATURE ONE.

 

From all the floors they converge here for the final dance together. They’ve just been dancing away to house, gabbering to hardcore and tripping to techno. Now they are celebrating as one, are smiling at each other and drinking a last beer together. Feeling the warmth which gradually drives away the tiredness – the warmth of the boundless We-Feeling.

 

CENTURY CIRCUS

 

Century Circus: the engine room of Nature One 2016. “Full speed ahead” comes the command. The turbines run unceasingly at their full power of 200,000 watts. It’s hot and it’s steamy. Everything is pulsating, reverberating, heaving. Deep pumping basses pound stoically out of all membranes.

 

Luminescent diodes warn of system overload. Enough power is produced here to keep the entire “Pydna” battleship on course. The fuel: your inexhaustible energy. Unleashed by the maestri of overdrive: Sven Väth and Chris Liebing, Adam Beyer and Klaudia Gawlas. The destination: 100% techno – and pure passion.

 

Nature One 2016 is the best time of the year. And if a cold wind does at some point blow through your life, the red dancing flames will warm your heart.

Today, tomorrow – for ever.

HOUSE OF HOUSE

 

In the beginning there was a certain Jack. And Jack had the groove. He said: “Let There Be House!” – and house music was born. House has long since matured into adulthood. And house is on all the channels, speaks all languages. House has already been in bed with hip hop, with pop, with hard rock, with indie and 80s – but always with feel.

 

Given their performance to packed-out crowds all night long last year, Robin Schulz’s label “Tonspiel” and his crew will be taking centre stage on the Friday. The Saturday will see a wild reunion with AKA AKA ft. Thalstroem, Moonbootica, Butch and Tom Novy. The happy end will be provided by the man who gave us the track “Björn Borkenkäfer”: Dominik Eulberg.

 

CLASSIC TERMINAL

 

This is where time stands still but everything else is moving. Feelings of happiness burst forth uncontrollably. Music as the conveyor of emotions. “Hardcore Vibes” for everybody. “Wonderful Days” for each and every one. “Tears Don’t Lie” – tears of joy do neither. “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” there’s room for everyone who knew how to really party at the time – and hasn’t forgotten how to.

 

All those who were sadly unable to experience the joyful first days of techno and happy hardcore, of hands-up and trance, can do so here: the Classic Terminal will beam you back in time to when techno was still spelt with three “ks”. And when gas masks, whistles and neon legwarmers were part of the basic rave outfit.

 

THE CLUBS

 

Techno pulsating to 1,000 cubic metres of bass in the bunkers. House in the hills under 10,000 stars. Trance, hardcore, drum’n’bass – the entire gamut of electronic music. On 19 totally different club floors. Just about enough room for 200 people on this one and for over 1,000 on that one. One floor with strobes and fog puristic to the core, the other with state-of-the-art light and LED systems.

 

At the mixers: DJ heroes, newcomers and the best residents from Hamburg, Berlin and Frankfurt. From Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Communication problems? There aren’t any. Music is the common tongue. Underground and club culture the passion. Enter the club world – at Nature One 2016!
