AIDEN AND "PRTI BEE GEE" JOIN THE STAGE AT KASTEL FORTRESS FOR FRESHWAVE 2025

The "Freshwave" festival, set to take place from August 7 to 9 at the iconic Kastel Fortress in Banja Luka, has just announced two powerful new additions to its lineup: Berlin-based techno DJ Aiden and legendary Belgrade hip-hop group "Prti Bee Gee".

These acts join an already stellar list that includes Kobosil, Pablo Bozzi, Hiljson Mandela, Vojko V, and Beogradski Sindikat, promising that the 13th edition of the festival will be one of the most dynamic and diverse so far.

Aiden, a rising star of the global techno scene, has carved her path from New York through Milan to Berlin.

She represents a new generation of artists blending the past, present, and future of sound. Her signature style fuses industrial and hardcore techno into an intense sonic experience that has captivated the underground music world. With deep roots in American dance culture and British electronic legacy, Aiden quickly secured her place under the powerful 44 Label Group led by Kobosil. Her sets are known for their ferocious energy, dark rhythms, and extreme BPMs—guaranteeing an unforgettable performance at Freshwave.

Joining her is "Prti Bee Gee", a cult-status hip-hop crew from Belgrade that gained popularity in the early 2000s. Known for their raw lyrics, sharp humor, and distinctive style, they’ve become iconic figures in the regional hip-hop scene with tracks like “Tačno u pre podne,” “Pajp,” and “Prti Bee Gee.” Their performance promises an authentic hip-hop underground vibe, further showcasing the festival’s musical diversity.

The festival will kick off on August 7 with a high-octane spectacle—Red Bull FMX Jam, a jaw-dropping freestyle motocross show. Global FMX stars will defy gravity with aerial stunts, accompanied by dramatic lighting, pyrotechnics, and top-tier music production, setting the tone for three unforgettable nights.
