Boom has never been just a music festival. The Alchemy Circle is where that claim gets tested nightly. This is the laboratory of Boomland: the stage where the outer edges of electronic music are stress-tested, dismantled and rebuilt.

The artists who play here share one instinct: restlessness. Expect psychedelic DNA spliced with techno, progressive, acid, drum'n'bass, the many mutations of bass music, progressive and electronica, in sets that treat genre as a starting point rather than a full destination. A creative psychedelic dialogue with all sorts of music. This is where you hear what psytrance means when it is engaging to the rest of electronic music.

Sound is only half the alchemy. Scenography, deco, architecture and cinematic visuals are composed with the same intent as the music. A continuous synaesthetic experience, unfolding beneath a biomimetic wooden structure shaped like a human heart. The room itself beats strong.

The line-up keeps evolving as we approach the festival, with new names and refinements landing along the way. Stay tuned, the transformation is never finished. That's the point of alchemy.

Boom State of Mind: We kindly ask you to leave national flags, selfie sticks and camping chairs out of the programme areas. Let your phone rest while you dance. At Boomland, no one is a nation, no one is an image, no one is a spectator: just humans, together. Nothing should stand between you and the Here & Now. Love Has No Flag. Bring Your Feet, Not Your Seat.
