Pan-Pot at Boogaloo in Zagreb on December 19 - the Berlin techno duo behind „Charly” and the Second State label

Pan-Pot play the Boogaloo club in Zagreb on December 19, 2026, starting at 11 pm, as part of the Future Scope series. The Berlin duo who have been part of European techno's core for more than two decades close out the year in a Zagreb club.

Pan-Pot are the German DJs and producers Tassilo Ippenberger and Thomas Benedix. They met at Berlin's SAE Institute and bonded over a shared passion for techno, as the only two in their student generation pointed at exactly that sound. The duo started in 2005.

The breakthrough came with the debut album „Pan-O-Rama”, released on Anja Schneider's Mobilee label. That record offered a full survey of techno, balancing heavy tracks aimed at the peak of the night with deeper, more elaborate atmospheres, and it also carries the hit „Charly”. The early phase of their work was marked by a fusion of electronic experimentation and minimal aesthetics, but it was precisely then that they set down the dark, murky sound that has been synonymous with their name ever since. In 2014 they founded their own label, Second State, which became a platform both for their music and for artists with a similar approach.

The duo work equally well in a club and on a big stage, and they have played festivals such as Awakenings, Timewarp and Creamfields. Tickets range from 20 to 40 euros, roughly 1,232 to 2,464 denars, sold through entrio.hr.
