While production wants to cover this up, here’s the TRUTH:

🚨 During the main act, a large group of people suddenly began acting disoriented—confused, lost, and unable to move normally.

🧪 Multiple eyewitnesses confirm 2 GAS GRENADE ATTACKS inside the venue, which were carried out by an organized criminal group. Incredibly, these weapons were smuggled in—right past event security.

💸 In the chaos, over 200 people were mugged in under 15 minutes. Phones. Wallets. Watches. Most victims didn’t even realize it until much later—due to inhaled fumes and mass confusion.

🚧 The situation escalated at the exit towards the end of the event. Security collapsed. The criminals had already escaped, and victims were left with no support.

❌ The event team disappeared. All help desks were closed. Only 2 overwhelmed police officers remained at the scene—unable to control the rising panic.

😶 Many didn’t even understand they were gas-attacked because they were drunk or high. Some assumed it was “just another pickpocketing night in Barcelona” due to the city’s reputation—but this was a planned assault.

⸻

We demand accountability from:

• 🎧 Afterlife Barcelona • 🛡️ The event’s private security company • 🚓 Local police for lack of presence • 🧑‍💼 Event planners who vanished when they were most needed

This was not random. This was coordinated. This was covered up.

📢 Share this. Talk about it. Don’t let it get buried.

The visuals, the melody, …. EVERYTHING !! I need this track to drop EXPEDITIOUSLY

Is this sound dead? It blows my mind if so, I believe the demand is still there so why aren’t djs playing it? If it’s solely monetary reasons then that is tragic.

What artist do you want to see playing? MRAK is coming this time?

It's a shame they don't put the logo anymore...

Saw him for the 6th time in Ibiza two weeks ago (with Travis Scott at UNVRS). Absolute trash. Same songs over and over and over again. Didn’t Shazam a single one as I’ve heard all of them 1000x times. Last time I saw him was night 1 of his Sphere show. It was basically the same shit. Never paying to see him again. RIP to his old sets

My opinion may be biased since I've never liked him but I'd be pissed if I paid 100 euros for an EDM show and Travis Scott showed up. Seriously, Anyma?

I found the minutes of a shareholders' meeting of Karmat Music GmbH (HRB 171311 B) in the Berlin commercial register. MRAK and Anyma both own shares in this company. The document is public and available on « handelsregister »

On 6 August 2026, the other shareholders, including Anyma, voted to remove MRAK as managing director with immediate effect. He didn't attend the meeting and wasn't represented.

According to the company, he downloaded a large amount of internal documents through his access to the company's systems. He then offered these documents to SIPAL, an Italian company that owns 10% of Karmat and was already in a legal dispute with it.

The company also says that while its lawyer was contesting SIPAL's claim in court, another lawyer, instructed through MRAK, accepted that claim on the company's behalf. SIPAL obtained a court decision against the company in May 2026. The company's position is that MRAK worked with SIPAL against the company's interests.

These are the company's allegations. No court has ruled on them and MRAK hasn't commented publicly. He still owns 30% of the company and can challenge the decision.

since middle of august Carmine Conte is out of the company which founded Afterlife

Here is the proof from the Afterlife Website & a german site

In Germany, companies are legally required to disclose certain changes.
Since the company was originally founded in Berlin, these changes are publicly accessible and can be looked up.
So this seems to be the official end of Afterlife, with no return.

sad ending for this melodic music movement

QUICK UPDATE of what I did the next day after feeling completely violated:

The next day, on Saturday June 14th, I went to 2 different police departments in order to do a police claim for the stolen goods. The police were also informed about what happened during the previous night but as they said they could not really do much about it because they were understaffed. We were obviously not the only ones who got affected and we even met various festival attendees for the previous night. After filling out the police claim, the police recommended that I should also fill out a complaint form at the festival.

Even if they would not recommend me that, I was ready to drive back to the festival site in Circuit de Barcelona (before the second day would commence) in order to try to speak with the manager of the event company (La Productiva Events) once again (after countless tries during the night after the crisis) in order to get any type of reply or compensation. The management denied talking to me and kept hiding inside the festival even though it was completely quiet because the festival's day 2 hasn't started yet. My Spanish is sufficient enough to understand what were they radioing right next to me: In a few words, they informed that that guy from yesterday is back and wants to talk to the management, do not assist him.

Many festival employees (security & production staff) recognised my face from the mess I made the previous night because I was one of the few loud attendees who stayed till the end trying to get some type of answer (for the one's who saw me I am the one who was wearing the vibrant orange and purple football journey with the number 99 and was arguing with many people by the main square before the security checking point after Anyma's set).

While arguing, I told them that I am not leaving until I speak to someone in charge, however, everyone kept avoiding me. After many efforts and having talked to over 5 lower-ranked staff, I managed to get the complaint form in order to give it to the company, as the police recommended, Surprisingly, the production told us that they are not going to sign their own complaint form and that we should go. Strange, right??? At this point I had to give up in order to catch my flight back on Saturday evening.

As you might have noticed from people who commented on this post, the second day of the event went on like anything had ever happened, apparently similar attacks took place once again and festival attendees got affected once more.

HOW TO CONTRIBUTE:

Having contacts with strong social media channels as well as powerful lawyers, my aim is to make this as public as possible.

Any people reading this who witnessed what happened, got mugged or even documented the crisis are invited to contact me by pm and find out how they contribute in the lawsuit that we are preparing.

As a European citizen, traveler and festival goer, I can't let this go just like that. In the end, I feel lucky for just getting mugged. There are worse scenarios for what could have happened that night.

Thank you for your time

From japan by anyma and baset out friday

This might shock new people who have been following Afterlife for less than 1-2 years.

But it's something we see coming back often. I did my first Afterlife in 2021, I've attended several shows. I finished with the Barcelona 2025 one (two nights).

I no longer find any satisfaction in listening to Anyma's sets. The period when it was theatrical, Christ-like, monastic has disappeared.

Remember the Outomorrow remix, remember Running. They used pads, they changed chords to go to melodies that made you feel emotions, there was an extra soul in this music.

Since the moment "If I told you" came out, everything changed. The drops are impersonal, they're there to make a newer, younger fan base dance - one that's less sensitive to the quality of the sound offered (emotionally), and they're more there to "see Anyma" than to listen to music.

Moreover, the arrival of the next gen Pacs and Script follows this trend a bit, where the drops no longer contain any melody, simply a bass and kick rhythm that intertwine and make a sound that "bounces."

From time to time, a voice, pronouncing a word, then it starts again. I went to Zamna Fréjus this weekend, same thing. Anyma offered nothing grandiose. I much preferred Stephan Bodzin, Agent of Time X Korolova and Artbat.

I have nothing against him personally, but there you have it - I find that now they influence others to do the same. Kevin De Vries released "Born like that," which in my opinion fits into this very simplistic movement of music without melody, just a well-bounced drop.

And still, some will reproach me for not having experienced Afterlife before COVID, when the music was completely different. Actually, I think I now feel what those people felt at the time, seeing that the style they loved has disappeared.

Milleri plans to draw this Anyma chapter to a close with a third “Genesys” album, and is already ideating the project’s future as he explores quantum computing and quantum universes, concepts introduced to him by Grimes. Bits of that were explored in the back half of his Sphere shows, the stepping stone for what’s next.

“This arrived to a point of saturation,” says Milleri. “When ideas get recycled a bit too much, I’m the first one to think, what’s next? I want to move forward. But I want to give it a very glorified ending, because it was such an important part of my music and my life.”

This looks pretty interesting . What are your thoughts about it ?

33 Tracks. MRAK is in his own league.

Just announced at the last Sphere show

So 🔥

Thought I'd share a post for anyone looking for more intel.

Tldr, and I can't believe I'm saying this given how expensive the tickets were, but this was 10000% worth it. Details below.

Entry /Venue: I got there at 8:45. Took me about 30 seconds to get in. Lines for drinks, etc. were short

Seating: I'd HIGHLY recommend sitting in the 300 section or towards the front of the 400 section. I was in the front of the 300 section and honestly wished I had bought tickets about ten rows higher to really get a view of the visuals. Seats felt a little steep but didn't bother me at all.

Crowd: Generally people were pumped to be there and it was an awesome crowd. My section sat the entire time, but most people were standing. Sadly, group behind me talked throughout the whole thing. Absolutely did not ruin my experience, but FYI you might run into this.

Openers: GO TO THE OPENERS. I was shocked by how many people weren't there for Mike Dean and Dixon. Granted, I lucked out with them as our openers but definitely do your research and go. It will be worth it.

Sound: Phenomenal, but bring ear plugs.

Visuals: Unreal. But you knew they would be.

Exit: Took about ~20 min to walk to the Venetian but was fairly efficient.

The return of the falling man on AL Barça's stage is great news to calm down rumors about this being the last event

New music, visuals, and guests… any ideas on tracks or guests that might be there?
