A unique concert-experiment from 9:00 PM to 7:00 AM, featuring live all-night music designed to facilitate sleep. The event began with an introduction to the Lullabyte project. Doors closed at 10:00 PM, followed by a 2-hour live electronic music piece by Natasha Barrett for the duo "Dream Divers" (aka Natasha Barrett live electronics, Miriam Akkermann flute). The work was composed specifically for the occasion and utilized the Aranyó 3D Audio System. This was followed by a 6-hour instrumental improvisation featuring Miriam Akkermann (flutes), Haize Lizarazu (piano and zither), Ángel Faraldo (live electronics), and Àlex Reviriego (double bass), performing non-stop music intended to comfort sleep.
