AFTER HOURS
Every year, MCM teams up with Chinese Man Records for its parties at Blum Canebière. For this edition, it's offering four unmissable Applause-branded parties, with DJ sets at Blum on Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for the closing night.
Bob Sleigh
A former programmer and resident DJ at Rinse France from 2015 to 2023, Bob Sleigh has established himself as a discreet yet essential figure on the Parisian nightlife scene. Through sets that are as sharp as they are unpredictable, he explores the friction between club music, rap, dancehall, Detroit techno, and ethereal textures, mastering a form of genre-blending that defies rigid categories. Rooted in the Hardcore Continuum but never bound by heritage, he builds bridges across genres, eras, and geographies. His selections reveal a finely tuned ear, capable of pairing a grime classic with an ambient edit or a slowed-down dancehall loop.
Isa Castelari & Habba Babba (Brazilian night)
In the game, Habba Babba is a true OG. After a 25-year career as a professional dancer, he fully committed to DJing in 2018, just months before joining Twerkistan. Constantly Shazamed, he was among the first DJs to bring the Baile Funk wave to Marseille.
Based in Paris, Isa Castelari is a Brazilian producer, DJ, curator, and event organizer, celebrated for her hybrid sets blending baile funk, UK garage, miami bass, dub, drum and bass, and ghetto house. Born and raised in São Paulo, she infuses her Brazilian roots into her music, crafting a sound that is both energetic and sensual.
Saari (Samuel NIGHT)
DJ and selecta, Saari champions music driven by a desire to make people dance across all horizons. A resident at Piñata Radio, she embodies a taste for genre-free music. Moving between percussive worlds and hybrid textures, her sets are rooted in a sensitive, intuitive approach to the dancefloor. Her electronic-leaning selections blend riddims and percussive rhythms, drawing on Afro-Caribbean influences and diasporic sounds, all deeply grounded in hip-hop and R&B culture.
Tysha Cee (closing night)
A DJ, producer, and composer, French artist of Congolese origin Tysha Cee has forged a distinctive musical identity inspired by her roots and the hip-hop culture that shaped her from an early age. This early passion quickly evolved into a true vocation for music production, leading her to collaborate with renowned artists on both local and international scenes, including Kalash, Diamond Platnumz, Serge Ibaka, Kel-P Vibe, and many others.
