Step into the dystopian soundscape of Chris Plettenberg— a realm where dark bass lines pulsate in harmony through the concrete jungle.But how can we truly encapsulate Chris’s sound?

Imagine a rolling bass line, a duet of juicy closed hihats, and a whipping clap. On top of that, a wild Arp stab or sequencer that sets the crowd into a frenzied dance. This sound was born from the hypnotic atmosphere of Berlin’s techno temples, where Chris immersed himself in days-long nights, allowing the music to shape his essence. 

In pursuit of leaving a mark on the Berlin techno scene, Chris joined forces with his friend, justUS, and founded the Berlin party series, “Beschäftigungstherapie.”

It all started in 2018 with an intimate get together at the legendary “Kaffee Burger.”
Today, it’s hard to imagine the Berlin techno scene without this dynamic duo.

Nowadays, Chris can be seen regularly playing at the city’s best-known clubs such as Ritter Butzke, Kater Blau or the legendary Kitkat Club. 

His influence knows no bounds, stretching beyond Berlin’s borders—making waves in cities such as Cologne, Munich, and at esteemed festivals like Feel, Praerie, or Mystic Creatures Festival.

As a visual artist, Chris emphasizes that his music should not just be heard—it should be felt, experienced, and lived. This ethos permeates his communication, evident in his social media presence and intricate mappings mirroring his dark, dystopian anime style.
