Kult Funktion

Kult Funktion returns to BRET on 4 December for its third edition. Bringing together Carlos Valdes, Faustin, Cliffie Square, Polli Panda and Juliana X, the Rotterdam platform settles in for seven hours of house, from the first loose grooves to the final push. Juliana X and Cliffie Square set things in motion with an opening b2b, making room for early arrivals to find their feet. Faustin takes over before handing the booth to Carlos Valdes, with Polli Panda steering the closing hours. Five distinct musical personalities, connected by a taste for rhythm, character and records that get people moving. BRET gives those exchanges the right setting: the warmth of a café, a soundsystem with plenty of presence and little distance between the booth and the crowd. There’s room to catch up at the bar, follow an unfamiliar record onto the floor and find yourself staying longer than planned. Rooted in house culture, Kult Funktion brings emerging voices and established selectors into the same room, with queer artists, BIPOC and women central to its programme. Expect an open atmosphere, attentive selections and a dancefloor that welcomes a little abandon.
