The Crave Night event series will continue to delight Riga audiences in 2026. The recent announcement of a DJ set by Röyksopp is followed by news of another electronic music event. Klangkarussell, the creators of Sonnentanz (Sun Don't Shine), will perform in Riga as part of their Kaleidoscope tour. During Crave Night, the Palladium concert hall will be transformed into a world-class nightclub with impressive lighting, video and sound equipment.
For more than ten years, Austrian electronic music duo Klangkarussell has occupied an important place in the global dance music scene, standing out with their emotionally rich and genre-diverse sound. Tobias Rieser and Adrian Held, widely known as the authors of the global hit Sonnentanz (Sun Don't Shine), are considered one of the pioneers of tropical house music, captivating listeners around the world.
Today, the group's catalog exceeds 2 billion streams worldwide, confirming the duo's ability to have a lasting impact on both the mainstream and underground music scenes. Tobias Rieser and Adrian Held founded the independent record label Bias Beach Records in 2019, gaining new creative freedom. Since then, the music released by Klangkarussell has reflected continuous artistic development while remaining true to its characteristic sound.
Singles such as "Ghostkeeper" featuring GIVVEN, "Shipwreck", "Home", "Afterglow", and the 2025 release "Let Me Come To Life" have made Klangkarussell one of the leading contemporary electronic music projects. Their musical style is similar to Jan Blomqvist, RÜFÜS DU SOL, and Elderbrook.
The duo's success is also clearly reflected on stage. Klangkarussell has performed at world-renowned festivals such as Lollapalooza Berlin, Ultra Miami, Pukkelpop (Belgium), Rock Am Ring, CRSSD Festival (San Diego), Baum Festival (Colombia), and MECA Festival (Brazil). In 2024, they joined Kygo's world tour, performing at 11 concerts across Europe.
