The past, the present, and the future of experimental electronic music merge into an explosive sonic mix. Borderline 2026, the Onassis Stegi’s longest-running music festival, returns for a second year at Onassis Ready: two days and two stages, with 25 names from the international and local scene in the industrial setting of the Onassis Stegi’s “factory of experiences” in Renti.
The techno legend Jeff Mills meets the 90s legacy of The Sabres of Paradise; J Spaceman of Spiritualized and Spacemen 3; one of the most influential DJs in contemporary British electronic music, Ben UFO; and the rising project by Indonesian composer J. “Mo’ong” Santoso Pribadi and DJ Scotch Rollex, Takkak Takkak, with fragile polyrhythms and drones.

Live performances and DJ sets once again push beyond the limits of electronic music as we have known it so far.
Borderline 2026 takes us into a parallel universe and invites us to get lost somewhere between the stages, the rhythm, and the lights. But this year’s lineup will not be short on unexpected encounters either, as this April, Borderline will be at the core of STAGES A/LIVE, filming the next digital concert of the inexhaustible psychedelia of J Spaceman (aka Jason Pierce, of Spiritualized and Spacemen 3) in the project they first presented at the Barbican Gallery ten years ago. A live soundtrack with the simultaneous screening of the film “Stranded in Canton” by William Eggleston. Another parallel project of the festival will be the audiovisual performance by 25AV, created especially for Borderline 2026.
Internationally acclaimed and emerging electronic music artists meet the multi-talented and multifaceted creativity of Athens’ experimental scene and its key representatives of club culture. Through her genre-crushing experimental music, aya brings to the foreground the impact of experience and memory on the physical body, as she explores on themes of identity, addiction, and disconnection. Afrorack presents Uganda’s first DIY modular sound system through ecstatic sounds. The lineup also features many more acts, from the electro acoustic sound of Panos Alexiadis, the field recordings and synth of Savvas Metaxas (in collaboration with Kevin Peter He of Onassis ONX), the experimental, UK bass & psychedelic techno sounds of mint++, the eclectic selections of Chris OD, and one of the most important acts of the Athenian post punk and indie rock scene, Victory Collapse, to the golden boy of local clubbing, Poor J’Darr, and the techno, jungle, footwork, and experimental club of STEGI.RADIO producer pink.wav, Sofia Stergiou with her blended jerky beats, Black Athena, io, POLYXENE, and DJ NOT I.

Borderline 2026 imagines the trajectory of experimental and electronic music from the end of the last century to today as an ocean of sound, a vast liquid mass where past, present, and future are interlinked, where legacy coexists with the cutting edge.
Bringing together artists from different eras, scenes, and genres, Borderline invites the audience to immerse themselves in this ocean and discover the still resonating power of names that defined and formed electronic music as we know it, along with the contemporary avant-garde, the bleeding edge of what experimental music today has to offer.
