NOTMAINSTREAM by ELEVIN Winter Special - Live Set Recordings

Guest-List on Shotgun.

Live Set Recordings • Curated International Artists • Void Acoustics Sound System

This is not another event organized by a multinational corporation with overpriced tickets, recycled lineups, and a focus on maximizing profit. It was built around a simple idea: music and audience should come first.

NOTMAINSTREAM is an independent, nonprofit festival for people who genuinely love music. Every performer earned their place through talent, consistency, and the quality of their music, not marketing budgets, industry connections, or popularity.

A carefully curated experience designed for the audience.

This is a limited-capacity event. Early arrival highly recommended.

WHY THIS LINEUP IS DIFFERENT

Every year, more than 10,000 music producers submit tracks to NOTMAINSTREAM. Fewer than 300 earn a place in our playlists, and less than 1% ultimately make it into ELEVIN's sets.

The journey doesn't end with the playlist. The artists who consistently stand out become part of the NOTMAINSTREAM ecosystem, with selected producers invited to perform at our events around the world.

With more than 150,000 followers, NOTMAINSTREAM TECHNO by ELEVIN has become one of the most followed independent melodic techno playlists in the world, helping audiences discover exceptional music before it reaches the mainstream.

After editions across the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Belgium, and Portugal, NOTMAINSTREAM returns to Lisbon for a special night at the legendary ZERO Club.

COME FOR THE PEOPLE.
BE PART OF THE RECORDINGS.
STAY FOR THE MUSIC.

We are all one. We dance alone together. We are NOTMAINSTREAM.

Your attendance helps support a merit-based ecosystem where artists are discovered through the quality of their work rather than marketing budgets, industry connections, or hype.

NOTMAINSTREAM isn't just a festival. It's part of a larger mission to create a music industry where artists grow because of merit rather than marketing budgets.
