Where Pure Carl Cox at Privilege was stripped back, almost to the point of resembling an illegal rave, the production here at Resistance is slightly fatter, the vibe more superclub than warehouse. A series of light boxes flicker red in front of the DJ booth. A posse of illuminated arc panels swing down from the ceiling. And yet, compared to the production levels we’ve seen at Ultra’s sister events across the globe, the overall visual aesthetic here remain minimalistic.

In the Vista Club, Canadian DJ B.Traits is performing back-to-back with Brazilian producer ANNA. The two played together a few months ago on B.Traits Radio 1 show and their synergy between them is apparent from the outset. Both artists are in sync, vibing off each other, dancing around behind the decks to a barrage of tough, funky tech basslines, while a crowd of just of over 1000 stomp around on the dancefloor. The dynamic in the booth is as vibrant as the atmosphere in front of it.
