Melodic techno artist VAPA is a true whirlwind of energy in live performances. A defining presence since his early days, VAPA invites us onto the dancefloor for moments suspended in time. Grounded by solid percussion and propelled by rolling basslines, his music transports listeners onto an endless highway – a clear influence from his time in Cologne, Germany (2018-2022). His sound is beautifully woven with melodic synths that are as delicate as they are intense.

VAPA draws inspiration from various techno pioneers such as KAS:ST, Einmusik, Brigado Crew and Joris Voorn (who, notably, plays VAPA’s track « Sailing »). He also gravitates towards labels like Stil Vor Talent, Arcane Music, and Katermukke, which he proudly showcases each month in his radio show, Passion Kick. With his first three EPs – Mental (2021), Venloer (2022) & Eponym (2024), a feature on France Inter’s Côté Club radio show, and appearances in top playlists like Spotify’s Electronic Rising and Deezer’s Techno Tunnel, VAPA has solidified his place within the melodic techno scene.

Following standout performances at Trans Musicales, MaMA, and a sold-out show at La Boule Noire in Paris, VAPA proves that whether on stage or streaming, his powerful and refined musical DNA resonates deeply with both French and international audiences.
