Gabanna & Galagha bring three decades of drum and bass to Pohoda
A B2B set by two key figures of the Slovak drum and bass scene – Gabanna and Galagha – will join the special Pohoda x Drumatique 30 night taking place from Saturday to Sunday at the SLSP Arena during Pohoda Festival 2026.

For nearly three decades, Galagha and Gabanna have been among the key pillars of the Slovak drum and bass scene. Their shared journey began in the mid-1990s, brought together by their passion for fast breakbeats, deep basslines and the authentic energy of the underground.
Their sound is characterised by a balanced mix of old-school drum and bass, techstep and modern influences, always maintaining their own identity and a strong sense of atmosphere. Over the years they have performed at countless club nights, festivals and events, captivating audiences with energetic sets, precise track selection and their ability to read the crowd.
Gabanna is considered one of the true pioneers of drum and bass in Slovakia. He has been behind the decks since 1990, originally starting with hip-hop. In 1993 he represented Czechoslovakia at the DMC World DJ Championships in London. Together with Galagha he co-founded the Drumatique crew, which played a crucial role in shaping the Slovak scene. Alongside DJing he continues to support the community and shares his knowledge through the DJ and production school LFO.sk.
Galagha represents the underground spirit of drum and bass where vibe, selection and respect for the sound come first. He also brings this approach to the airwaves through his show Fresh_FM on Rádio_FM, where he presents new releases, discoveries and forgotten gems from the genre.
Together they helped establish Drumatique as a platform built around community, quality and authentic drum and bass culture.
Their B2B performance will be part of the Drumatique 30 celebration – a special moment connecting three decades of Slovak drum and bass history with the energy of today’s scene. On Saturday night, broken beats will once again fill the SLSP Arena and connect thousands of people into one powerful dancefloor experience.
Last week we announced LTJ Bukem, FA:VA B2B Molecular and Ke3n B2B Subtension. One final artist will be revealed soon to complete the Pohoda x Drumatique 30 lineup.
Pohoda 2026 will feature performances by The Cure, Gorillaz, The Prodigy, Lykke Li, Denzel Curry, IDLES, Oliver Tree, Apashe & Brass Orchestra, Action Bronson, Emilíana Torrini, Baxter Dury, and many more.
