Detroit Techno Legend Stacey Pullen to Headline Piknik at Papagayo Tenerife on May 31
Detroit techno legend Stacey Pullen is set to headline the Piknik series at Papagayo Tenerife on May 31st, joined by supporting acts Beto Uña and Claudia Rutten.
The Canary Islands' electronic music scene is gearing up for a major event on May 31st. The Piknik series at Papagayo Tenerife has announced that American producer Stacey Pullen will headline the upcoming session, a move that highlights the venue’s dedication to hosting legendary figures in global dance music.
Pullen is a key figure in the Detroit techno scene, having learned from the genre’s pioneers—Derrick May, Juan Atkins, and Kevin Saunderson. Since starting his career in the early nineties, he has moved beyond the "second wave" label to build a reputation for technical skill and a unique, atmospheric sound that avoids mainstream commercial trends.
Joining Pullen for the evening are artists Beto Uña and Claudia Rutten, who will help round out a night dedicated to electronic innovation. For local fans, this is a rare chance to experience the work of a producer who, through his Blackflag Recordings label, has long championed creative freedom and the blending of techno, house, and futuristic sounds.
Pullen’s appearance is a deliberate choice. Since establishing himself in Amsterdam in the mid-nineties, he has maintained a rare level of longevity in the underground scene. By balancing classic techno heritage with modern dancefloor energy, this event cements Papagayo Tenerife’s status as a must-visit destination for club culture in the Canary Islands.
