The mystery is over. After a week of cryptic visual projections lighting up landmarks across Amsterdam, Berlin, and Brussels, the veil has been lifted: KI/KI and Marlon Hoffstadt—aka DJ Daddy Trance—are coming together for the first time ever, for an exclusive five-hour back-to-back set at Zeebrugge Beach on August 10.
Titled “5 Hours In Belgium,” the extended set promises a once-in-a-lifetime union of two of electronic music’s most magnetic and innovative figures. On the sun-drenched sands of Zeebrugge, fans can expect a seamless blend of peak-time energy, euphoric trance nostalgia, and forward-thinking sonic exploration.
The citywide teaser campaign sent social media into a frenzy, as projections outside Van Gogh Museum, Soho House Berlin, and Bahnhof Bruxelles-Luxembourg ignited speculation. Now, with the curtain drawn back, it’s clear: this will be a defining moment in the summer festival circuit—and the beginning of a deeper creative collaboration.
Known for her explosive rise, KI/KI has become one of the most talked-about names in underground dance. Her fusion of acid, trance, and techno pulses with future-forward intensity while nodding to the past. From remixing Charli XCX and Billie Eilish, to her stage takeovers and viral sets (including over 14 million TikTok views), she is shaping the genre’s next era. Her 2025 calendar is stacked with global festival appearances across Europe, North & South America, Australia, and Ibiza.
Marlon Hoffstadt, the Berlin-based powerhouse behind the global smash “It’s That Time” and its FISHER remix, continues to evolve with his DJ Daddy Trance alias—infusing humor, high energy, and hard house into cult-like rave experiences. Having remixed everyone from Dua Lipa to Madonna, his influence spans generations. This summer marks his long-awaited U.S. debut at EDC Las Vegas, and “5 Hours In Belgium” is the perfect launchpad for what’s to come.
Together, KI/KI and Hoffstadt are set to create a ritualistic rave experience—raw, rhythmic, and unforgettable. No distractions. Just the beach, the beat, and pure, uninterrupted movement.
One stage. One day. Two icons. Five hours.
