FIST x xcakes: Ritmos de Resistencia Ynfynyt Scroll, Loka, DJ Clone, Archangel, Pauli Cakes
About This Event
At Oberon, FIST joins Ynfynyt Scroll, xcakes, LOKA, DJ Clone, ARCHANGEL and Pauli Cakes for a bill that places heavy, repetitive rock alongside DJs oriented toward pacing and low-end pressure. ARCHANGEL and DJ Clone favor steady architecture and careful transitions; LOKA works rhythm and pressure; FIST provides mass and repetition from sludge and doom-leaning work, so the night foregrounds tonal weight and temporal shifts over bright hooks.
About Ritmos de Resistencia
Ritmos de Resistencia is a DJ-centered night at Oberon that treats rhythm as both structure and argument. Fist appears alongside xcakes, Ynfynyt Scroll, LOKA, and DJ Clone, with sets built around steady pacing, low-end weight, and careful transitions rather than peaks. The lineup places heavy, repetitive rock textures in conversation with dance-floor engineering, a familiar New York programming move that reflects the city’s long habit of cross-pollinating scenes. One clear takeaway is how restraint becomes the point: pressure accumulates, and the room changes gradually.
