Name: Listening Session: Vladimir Ivkovic & Dea
Start: 2026-04-28
Location: Klymax

A Listening Session is a curated, immersive auditory experience built around the practice of deep listening. Where music has largely become ambient to daily life, this session proposes a different relationship that focuses on presence and awareness.

For two hours, you will be taken on a continuous journey through rare, carefully chosen records — the kind that DJs gatekeep for their own archive. The Klymax soundsystem does the rest, speakers built for projecting music in its purest frequency.

A night to slow down and listen deeply, for those who truly appreciate the beauty of stillness and sound.

Line-up Profiles

Vladimir Ivkovic

Vladimir Ivkovic is a DJ and curator from Belgrade. He spent years building his practice in the margins, running events, digging deep, and eventually finding his home at Salon des Amateurs in Düsseldorf, a small venue that became quietly influential. His label Offen Music reflects the same instinct: releases that resist category, drawn from the unexplored edges of electronic music. He plays records the way a writer constructs sentences, with intention, with patience, and always in service of a larger story.

Dea Barandana

Aradea Barandana, known as Dea, started DJing in high school for a breakdance crew. Years of digging in London sharpened a style rooted in cosmic sounds and exotic psychedelia, built to resist easy categorisation. He has released under his own name and through projects like Precious Bloom and Zatua, collaborated with DJ Harvey and Ricardo Villalobos, and appeared on Peggy Gou's Gudu Records. His debut solo album is forthcoming on Rush Hour Records.
