The Afterlife Festival Barcelona 2025 previously released, confirming a two day debut at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on June 13–14. What sets this edition apart is the artistic split between the minds behind Tale of Us with MRAK, the solo alias of Carmine Conte, curating Day Two on Saturday, June 14.
While Anyma (Matteo Milleri) will craft the Friday experience, Saturday belongs entirely to MRAK a visionary known for bringing storytelling, emotion, and conceptual performance into the world of melodic techno. His curation for Day Two reflects a deeper, more introspective creative path where music becomes a vehicle for transformation, not just entertainment.
MRAK’s lineup reads like a personal narrative: CamelPhat, Layla Benitez, Gordo, 19:26, Omnya, 8KAYS, Alfa Romero, Asal, Øostil, EarthLife, and MRAK himself will perform across two custom-designed stages. Expect a day that fuses emotional depth with experimental edge true to the immersive spirit of his We Don’t Follow tour.
Where Tale of Us helped shape the sonic identity of Afterlife, MRAK pushes that identity further, venturing into the conceptual and cinematic. His curation promises a festival experience built not just on rhythm, but on connection, reflection, and narrative.
The Barcelona edition also follows the announcement of a second Afterlife Festival in Mexico City, marking a new global phase for the brand. As Afterlife continues to evolve, MRAK’s contribution stands as a creative anchor an opportunity for longtime fans and new listeners alike to experience the brand through his lens.
