UBK Presents:
KONNECTION FESTIVAL DAY 2: OAKK AND BIANCA OBLIVION
Join us for Day 2 of a two day celebration of bass music culture, created by the community, for the community.
Our second night features the sounds of Oakk and Bianca Oblivion, with Umbral Sound System showcase to kick off the night and UBK's Trnmeupsum closing it out.
OAKK
https://www.oakk.net/
OAKK produces dynamic, eclectic, and infectious bass music that is impossible to resist. His high energy DJ sets display his commitment to diversity and flow, while telling a cohesive story that covers a vast musical range and is nothing short of striking.
Musically speaking, OAKK’s catalogue is melodically beautiful and highly energetic — incorporating his respect for the cultures and communities that have influenced the musical landscape of the present. With a strong commitment and respect for a multitude of genres, OAKK is able to effortlessly blend and weave between different soundscapes, creating a sound of his own. With a consistent output of releases, OAKK’s primary focus is to always create projects that vary from previous ones, while maintaining trademark qualities to his productions.
With performances at premier festivals such as Lightning in a Bottle, Shambhala and Bass Coast, as well as a Live Boiler Room set, the next step for OAKK is to expand into new territory and share his sound around the globe. The versatility of his productions and DJ sets offer an unpredictable aspect that never compromises the clarity of his vision. This intense passion for music and community has brought OAKK to his current stage, and given him the tools needed to propel his creative endeavours into the future.
BIANCA OBLIVION

Bianca Oblivion is a connector of the global club underground, drawing lines between US and UK bass music, baile funk, reggaeton, grime, vogue and beyond. She has long been involved in multiple facets of the LA underground, continuously working to create spaces for femme/non-binary, queer, and POC artists in Los Angeles nightlife, most recently with her DJ crew/event series Warp Mode alongside Star Eyes and AK Sports. Since 2016, her Club Aerobics label and radio show on NTS have been staples in the underground scene, showcasing some of the most forward thinking dance music producers and DJs. She was named by Mixmag as one of 2023's breakthrough DJs of the year and chosen as part of Beatport Next's Class of 2024; with multiple releases on the horizon and tours worldwide, Bianca is gearing up for a big year. Whether in DJing, radio or production – Bianca continues to rep her culture and community.
