DWP26 Phase 2: ARTBAT B2B R3HAB Headline, Plus the Rising DJs to Watch
Djakarta Warehouse Project has revealed its DWP26 second phase lineup, led by a special ARTBAT B2B R3HAB set.
DWP26's second phase lineup was announced October 30, 2026, and it is the most discovery-friendly wave of the festival so far. The Djakarta Warehouse Project returns to JIExpo Kemayoran, Jakarta, on December 11–13, 2026, and phase two pairs a heavyweight back-to-back with a crop of rising names worth learning before December.
The headline: ARTBAT B2B R3HAB
ARTBAT and R3HAB share the decks for a special back-to-back set — a pairing that makes sense only at a festival, and one with real recent history behind it. The two acts already collaborated twice in 2026, on 'Fight Machine' and on 'Dramma', released October 2 on ARTBAT's UPPERGROUND imprint after months as a festival ID. A B2B from a pair with that kind of shared catalogue is not a novelty booking; it is a set with its own built-in tracklist.
The rising DJs to watch in phase two
- Agents Of Time — the Italian duo of Andrea Di Ceglie and Luigi Tutolo bring their darker, hypnotic melodic techno to Jakarta. If your DWP weekend leans deep rather than mainstage, this is the set to plan around.
- Ely Oaks — a newer voice in dance music mixing underground and contemporary electronic influences, and exactly the kind of name a festival lineup rewards you for catching early.
- Ian Asher — known for his viral remix of Jain's 'Makeba', Asher is the clearest example of how closely electronic music and digital culture now overlap.
- HALŌ — not a single artist but a collaborative project merging three progressive house acts, Third Party, DubVision and Matisse & Sadko, under one name. Three distinct sounds, one set.
- The Indonesian wave — Whisnu Santika, Adnan Veron x HBRP, Angger Dimas, W.W, Josiah and Gil Glaze round out the phase with local talent, in line with the festival's long-running focus on diversity across dance sub-genres.

Why it matters: DWP is betting on the middle of the bill
Phase one already delivered the mainstage names — Afrojack, Axwell B2B Sebastian Ingrosso, Alok and Dimitri Vegas. Phase two does something harder: it gives the festival its depth. The acts that break out of a festival are rarely the headliners; they are the mid-bill names whose sets get clipped, shared and replayed. ARTBAT B2B R3HAB guarantees the headline moment, but Agents Of Time, Ely Oaks and Ian Asher are the names most likely to leave Jakarta with bigger audiences than they arrived with.
