JoyhauserFestival appearances

Belgian techno duo formed in 2017 by Joris Cielen and Stijn Vanspauwen, who first met in 2004 in Bilzen, Belgium. Named after psychologists Joy Paul Guilford and Marc Hauser, their sound fuses techno pulsating energy with trance influences and Belgium rave heritage. After DJing separately for years, they united as Joyhauser and broke through with Galaxy Phase on Kraftek in 2018. Their debut album Memoro arrived in 2023, spanning rave, techno, and broken beats. Releases on Terminal M, Second State, Drumcode, and Kraftek have earned support from Amelie Lens, Pan-Pot, and Adam Beyer.
