Last weekend I played for the first time in Friedas Büxe in Zurich. Although the main act - Frida Darko - was absent due to illness, the club was packed. Many thanks to Aramiss and Planet Caravan who played with me. Special thanks to the many dancers and music lovers and the Büxe crew.  Looking forward to coming back at any time. It was a perfect and very emotional experience.

Einer geht noch - Aka-Tony @ Schlummi - Friedas Büxe - Zurich (live)

After staying for over a week in the ancestral village of Ishola (Hekske’s lover) on the misty slopes of the Ruwenzori Mountains, the witches kissed goodbye to their friendly hosts and continued their flight southwards, following their inner compass. Hekske (the little witch) and Falke (the 10-year old witch apprentice) flew over a wide variety of breathtaking landscapes, like the Okavango delta and the thundering Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya). 
While following the Limpopo River, they saw a breathtaking sunset unfold in the west… it was high time to land and find a safe place to spend the night. The witches saw no humans which meant the place was safe. They landed at the foot of a majestic tree, but didn’t have much time to savor the glorious sunset, as a few hungry lions were stealthily approaching them, observing the witches in their long white dresses from close quarter, preparing for a decisive lethal strike. But while looking at the witches, a feeling of tenderness took hold of the lionesses. Instead of attacking, they walked slowly into the direction of the girls, who started to talk with a soft voice to the queens of the jungle. This drew the attention of even more lions and soon they were all lying at the feet of the witches, and Falke played and frolicked with a bunch of lion cubs - who especially loved to play with the girl’s long blond hair (the hair of a young witch is of an indescribable softness). The leader of the pride welcomed the young witches and ordered the other animals to prepare a soft bed of grass for the exhausted girls. And soon the Flemish witches drifted into a blissful sleep in the middle of a circle of lions, whom had never ever experienced a similarly peaceful presence in the plains. 
After a deep, blissful sleep, the witches woke up just before sunrise. Falke quickly realized that the little fluffy thing she was holding tenderly in her arms, was actually a lion cub and when looking around, she saw a lioness watching the two of them with endearment … clearly the cub’s mom. Slowly it dawned to the girl that she had been sleeping in the middle of a circle of lions … easily the best possible protection in the African plains. Despite being far away from her home forest in North-Western Europe, the little witches felt absolutely at ease. They looked around and saw all these wonderful animals roaming on the plains : zebras, antelopes, giraffes and even a herd of elephants in the distance.
A bateleur eagle had spotted the witches and touched down in front of their feet. The girls understood that the bird wanted to take them somewhere and they kissed goodbye to their friends of the lion pride. The eagle flew straight to a nearby forest, and touched down in a clearing where a group of women were waiting for them. These were local witches, but they looked very different from European witches. They were all wearing colorful long clothes. The witches themselves had all kinds of skin colors, ranging from black, brown to white. When Falke said something in Flemish to Hekske, the local witches smiled and started to talk to them in the local Afrikaans language. Hekske and Falke couldn’t believe their ears … this language sounded just like Flemish, but with a more expressive intonation and some funny expressions. They never expected that witches from this part of the world would speak the same language as them. After the welcome hug, the African witches gave an energetic welcome dance, which they would soon teach to their European guests. This place had such a beautiful energy …

Unreal Afterhours on Monday noon at the Creatures Corner <3

Enjoy!

Manucho - Mystic Creatures Festival | 2025 | Creatures Corner |

Mein Berlin Debüt💫 begann in einem fast leeren Wohnzimmer, in dem ich mich gemütlich eingrooven konnte und endete mit einem vollen Dancefloor, der mir so viel Energie, Begeisterung und Freude entgegenbrachte, dass ich noch immer verzaubert und sprachlos bin ❤️‍🔥🚀❤️‍🔥 Dass meine Musik so viele Menschen zum Teppich-Traumtanzen bewegt, bringt mein Herz zum Leuchten...🥹

••• Mein Ziel ist es, Menschen zu verbinden, sodass sie ihren Blick wieder in ihr Inneres richten, als Erfüllung im Außen zu suchen. Alle Emotionen zulassen und sich von Ängsten, Zwängen und äußeren Erwartungen lösen ••• 

Deshalb habe ich mich auf Genres fokussiert, die in mir die meisten Emotionen auslösen: *Downtempo / Organic House* 
& 
*Minimal / Microhouse / Deep Tech* 
In diesem Beate Uwe Set habe ich zum ersten Mal eine Brücke zwischen diesen musikalischen Spielarten geschlagen. Dass diese für mich besondere Soundreise dann trotz Opening sofort die Crowd mitgenommen hat, ist deshalb nochmal mehr besonders 🥲 

✨ENJOY this lovely journey I created for YOU✨

PS: Sorry for the clipping parts! Better quality Next time, promise ❤️ 

*******
My Berlin Debut started with an almost empty living room where I could get comfortably into the groove, and ended with a packed dance floor that gave me so much energy, enthusiasm, and joy that I'm still enchanted and speechless ❤️‍🔥🚀❤️‍🔥 The fact that my music inspires so many people to dream dance on the carpet is really special to me. 

••• My goal is to connect people so that they can turn their attention back to their inner selves instead of seeking fulfillment in the outside world. To allow each and every emotion and let go of fears, constraints, and external expectations ••• 

That's why I've focused on genres that trigger the most emotions in me: *Downtempo / Organic House* 
& 
*Minimal / Microhouse / Deep Tech* 
In this set at Beate Uwe, I built a bridge between these musical styles for the first time. The fact that this special sound journey immediately captivated the crowd despite the opening makes it even more special 🥹🥲 

✨ENJOY this lovely journey I created for YOU✨
