Kiss Facility is the promising duo consisting of Emiratian-Egyptian vocalist and artist Mayah Alkhateri and UK-based producer Salvador Navarrete, better known as Sega Bodega, who since the mid-2010s have helped redefine the boundaries of electronic pop on the international scene. Icons such as Björk, FKA twigs, Caroline Polachek, Dorian Electra and Eartheater have all collaborated with Sega Bodega, attracted by his ability to conjure the future in music that embraces both glitches, digital glitches and a strong personal expression.

In Kiss Facility, Sega Bodega and Mayah Alkhateri -- as both creative and private partners -- unite great emotional heaviness, sonic boldness and a necessary call for Arab women's freedom. With a simple setup of guitar and vocals, shoegaze and indie rock melds with Arabic musical references in an expression that challenges notions of identity, creativity and belonging. In a sea of saturated guitars, Alkhateri's vocals soar beautifully and melancholy with clear echoes of Cocteau Twins. The duo's intense and present live performances have already made a strong impression, and their debut album “KHAZNA”, released in early 2026, has been met with rave reviews from Pitchfork, among others. Experience the Kiss Facility at ALICE before taking on the biggest stages worldwide.

Ydegirl

Ydegirl folds contemporary R&B and pop into a Nordic-Baroque universe where classical instruments meet synths and electronic beats. At its centre stands her alluring vocals, weaving past, present and future together in sensuous and detailed arrangements. Her upcoming album explores the transitions between different states -- from the woods to the city, from fantasy to reality -- but is rooted primarily in love songs. Current with new material, she warms up the evening with a set before Kiss Facility.
