SUPREMACY

Supremacy Germany: Decoded  

Hacking reality in RAW style  

For the first time ever, Supremacy landed in Germany, bringing its signature RAW energy to a whole new crowd. As one of the most dominant forces in the hardcore scene, Supremacy has been pushing the bar higher for a decade—always bigger, always bolder. Under the hands of Art of Dance, the German edition had to be nothing short of groundbreaking. A fully immersive hacker-inspired world was set in motion, with TWOFIFTYK leading the charge on set design, visuals, and show direction, resulted in absolute mayhem. 

The Stage: A VJ’s Dream Turned Reality 

This time, after the first briefing session with Art of Dance, the creative vision behind the stage came from Chris Hoogwerf, TWOFIFTYK’s motion designer & VJ. As he put it, designing your own canvas and then creating the visuals for it is a VJ’s dream. The entire show was built around the theme "DECODED", where glitching screens, fractured data streams, and chaotic visual breakdowns mirrored the escalating intensity of the music. As the night progressed, the digital world slowly crumbled—glitches expanded, cracks deepened, and by the end, the entire system had collapsed. A perfect visual metaphor for the power of RAW music. 

Collaboration with Ausgang Studio: A Web of Controlled Chaos 

Adding another layer to the digital dystopia was Ausgang Studio, whose cable-art installation transformed the DJ booth into a pulsating data core. Using 160 meters of LED strips controlled via their custom-built "brain," and nearly 10 kilometers of cables, Ausgang created an intricate, tech-driven structure that embodied the show’s core message. Beyond the tech, the installation carried a deeper meaning—highlighting the way data flows are no longer organic but instead manipulated by entities chasing power. In a world of constant surveillance and control, humans are drifting further away from what truly matters. This theme of disrupted reality seamlessly merged with TWOFIFTYK’s high-impact visuals, amplifying the show’s intensity to a mind-melting experience. 

A Legacy of Next-Level Shows 

This show marked another milestone in TWOFIFTYK’s long-standing collaboration with Art of Dance, one of the leading powerhouses in the hardcore scene. Over the years, we’ve worked together to bring Supremacy, Dominator, and Masters of Hardcore to life with groundbreaking designs and jaw-dropping visuals. With every new project we have a new challenge, a new story to tell.
