SOFT PLANET

Soft Planet was a one-off event format dedicated to electronic music. It envisioned the club as a gathering of diverse bodies celebrating their interconnectedness and softness. Soft Planet sought to combine mutual empowerment and respect within a comprehensive, global-minded club experience. The festival started off with talks by Steve Goodman and Carmen Herold, hosted by EOS Radio. Additionally, it featured performances by upsammy, Shannen SP, Nicolas Lutz, Juliana Huxtable, Helena Hauff, among others, and a screening by Tianzhuo Chen. Soft Planet was produced by Stay Service in collaboration with Zoom Club and with the support of EOS Radio.
