Ben Böhmer, the Berlin-based melodic house producer, headlined Finsbury Park on Friday 1 August 2025. His day opened Krankbrother’s run of five summer days in the park.
Böhmer was born in 1993 and grew up in Göttingen, where he played piano and trumpet before he began composing on synthesisers. His first single, “Promise You”, came out on a Göttingen label at the end of 2015.
Anjunadeep, the London label, released his debut album, Breathing, in 2019, and Begin Again in 2021. His third album, Bloom, came out on Ninja Tune in 2024.
London rooms run through his catalogue. He has released two live albums recorded in the city, Live from Printworks London in 2020 and Live at the Roundhouse, London in 2022.
Krankbrother, the independent London promoter, has staged parties since 2009 in disused buildings, public spaces and outdoor sites. The Finsbury Park site ran two stages, each with its own sound system.
Colyn, ELIF, Jan Blomqvist, Joplyn, Keanler, Nicky Elisabeth and Nils Hoffmann completed the bill.
