FORMS is the new live techno project from Brian Sanhaji and Monoloc, two artists who have shaped Frankfurt’s uncompromising sound for more than two decades. What began as parallel paths converges in 2025 into a single format: FORMS delivers stripped-down, powerful live techno, raw, direct and driving. Sanhaji’s modular architecture meets Monoloc’s dark low end weight; together they fuse their individual signatures into a focused, high-energy performance.
Brian Sanhaji started releasing in 2000 under the alias Relic, later defining the CLR label sound and launching his current imprint SENSOR in 2016. His discography includes two full-length albums: Stereotype on CLR and Amount of Contour on SENSOR. Monoloc issued two albums – Drift on CLR and The Untold Way on Dystopian – and followed up with releases on internationally respected techno labels.
For fifteen years both artists have toured the globe, sharing stages from Berghain to Awakenings. FORMS is not simply a collaboration of two names; it is a logical artistic evolution,improvised, minimal and intense. Techno as structure in the moment.
