Last Thursday, NYC’s social scene took a brief journey to the sky, celebrating the soft opening of Rosehill Rooftop in Midtown Manhattan.
Danish electronic band WhoMadeWho is gearing up to headline the debut edition of DGTL USA on December 1st at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, promising an extraordinary live show featuring an innovative stage design and a diverse lineup of international artists.

WhoMadeWho, known for their dynamic blend of Indie, Disco, and Techno, has been a significant force in the electronic music scene for over two decades. The band, consisting of Tomas Høffding, Tomas Barfod, and Jeppe Kjellberg, has built a reputation for their electrifying fusion of sounds and legendary live performances, stretching from Circoloco to Coachella. Their recent album, UUUU, has received widespread critical acclaim, highlighting the emotive and transcendent nature of their music.
The DGTL USA lineup exemplifies the festival’s commitment to forward-thinking sonic curation. Alongside WhoMadeWho, the event will feature German deep house veteran Henrik Schwarz, known for his unique blend of classical and jazz elements in electronic music, and Irish DJ and producer Mano Le Tough, famed for his debut album Changing Days. Adding to the international flavor, South Korea’s Shubostar will bring her pioneering Cosmic disco sound to the event.
The highlight of the event is WhoMadeWho’s new live show concept, designed in collaboration with the renowned Danish architecture group Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) and other leading design firms. The stage will feature an inflatable sphere, serving as a canvas for three-dimensional video projections, offering a groundbreaking audio-visual experience. BIG, known for their innovative and sustainable architectural designs, promises a concert experience that transcends traditional boundaries. Look at a few selects from their first show on the run, which took place in Istanbul earlier this month, below:
In collaboration with flora&faunavisions, EyeMix Studio, and Christopher Mulligan, the band aims to merge their forward-thinking sounds and visuals to create a unique and immersive live performance. The collaboration with flora&faunavisions focuses on crafting visual systems that respond in real-time to the band’s music, offering a deeply emotional journey for the audience. EyeMix Studio, an LA-based agency renowned for their work with various notable producers, will bring their expertise in AI and advanced visualization tools to enhance the live show.
As the world of live performances and electronic music continues to evolve, WhoMadeWho stands at its forefront, ready to captivate audiences in Brooklyn and beyond with their groundbreaking approach and unparalleled energy. Final tickets for DGTL USA can be purchased HERE.
