SKANK. Edition 1: at Berlin
March 1 @ 10:00 pm – March 2 @ 2:30 am
SKANK. is more than just a party – it’s a celebration of freedom, self-expression, and unity for everyone. Rooted in inclusivity and diversity, SKANK. is a safe and vibrant space for the queer and trans communities, as well as everyone in between.
At SKANK. we honour the roots and evolution of electronic music. From Detroit’s deep techno pulse to tribal rhythms, breakbeats, and the soul of underground house – this party is all about authenticity, freedom of expression, and the power of rhythm. Lose yourself on the dancefloor with Dijipoune(Montreal) /Tanner Castro / And.re
We are here to have a good time, get wild and what better way to do so with a drag presence, with Tinka to serve to welcome you at the door, and a special performance by Sunshine Glitterchild

TEAM:
TANNER CASTRO
Tanner Castro is an Ottawa-based DJ with Venezuelan roots, whose passion for music was first ignited as a street dancer. This early love for movement and rhythm eventually led them to clubs like Stereo, where they were introduced to the house music community and like-minded individuals who deepened their connection to the genre.
With respect for the elders and the roots of house music, Tanner brings a unique point of view, creating sets that bridge the gap between underground cuts and electrifying anthems offering a profound understanding of music’s healing and transformative power.
As a resident DJ at THROB, Sashay, Dance Temple, Hi Slay!, and now SKANK. Tanner has become a staple of Ottawa’s queer nightlife, medicine circles and dancefloors curating experience where people can feel free, connected, and alive.
