Resident Advisor will return to co-curate and host Saturday night at SonarLab, one of the outdoor spaces at Sónar by Night, which over the years has hosted some of the festival's most memorable performances. RA is the world's leading electronic music site, with around 3.5 million monthly visitors. It produces high-quality written and film content and, through its event listings, is a vital resource for promoters, DJs, labels, producers and clubbers.

The RA lineup, which reflects the adventurous spirit of Sónar, includes a trio of unique performances. Daphni and Hunee, two DJs known for the depth and diversity of their sets, play back-to-back for the first time—Marcel Dettmann and Dr. Rubinstein, two similarly respected selectors, will also perform together for the first time. Carl Craig presents his very special Versus Synthesizer Ensemble with five musicians, including his long-term collaborator Francesco Tristano, joining him on stage. The much-loved duo Beautiful Swimmers and t q d, the UK group comprising Royal T, DJ Q and Flava D, will be DJing, while Overmono, the impressive new project from Truss and Tessela, will perform live. Barcelona's Ylia will be on warmup duties.
