Description: An optimistic foil to yesterday’s. This one actually felt like it could use some cohesive rhythm, but I still haven’t quite figured out the tech of incorporating rigid rhythmic elements into the rig. It’s a pretty blatant violation of the timing rule, but it felt like the right length for the work.

live at @sustain-release-nyc 2021, main stage saturday night 1-2:30am

For us, there is no other festival like Fusion. And this year it was a really special one! 
What an honour to play after our longtime inspiration Frank Wiedemann on the mighty Sonnendeck stage Thursday night. The vibe was electric and we could really feel the energy of the sea of people vibing with us to our music. 

Thank you so much to the @3000-grad crew for inviting us, and to everyone in the crowd who made this set one of the biggest highlights of our career. 

We love you Fusion!

Fusion Festival 2023 | Sonnendeck

Dear listener,
finally this year, I managed to see the man burn!
In the weeks and months before Burning Man a lot of my friends kept on telling me how amazing it was and most of them would conclude their eulogy with something like: „Burning Man changed my life“.
Well, I can not certainly say that Burning Man changed my life, but what I know for sure is that my life changed afterwards ;-)
Very glad that I made it to this far away place and I hope to return next year.
I want to thank Lio and everybody at our nice camp and of course the robots who invited me to let their hearts beat according to my pace. It has been truly amazing. 
The only thing I really had to struggle with, that Sunday morning on the Playa, was the sunlight that made it almost impossible to spot anything on the display, so please please please you geeks out there, come up with something that can work in sunlight, because we all love the sun!
Yours Acid Pauli

Sometimes the best sets are the ones that happen in the afterhour, when all you want is one last dance before it's all over :)
Seeing that huge sea of faces in front of me was so moving - all those people with their eyes closed, melancholic but smiling, exhausted yet still moving to the beat. What a view.

Thank you to Nick & Robin from @fernab-berlin for having me and for creating that special atmosphere on the Archipel floor!

Dedicated to my bro @arutani, who unfortunately couldn't play the closing set due to police intervention.

Much love!!

"Keith will perform a version of one of his "Playthroughs" pieces on his Max 4.5 setup, and then talk about the approach to their creation, and ways he's been updating and rewriting it all in Max 8. The talk will investigate how these systems can be refined to allow for more hands-off, automatable, algorithmic control, which can allow for focus on the central real-time elements of performance."

1st time messing around on a modular syth. Really enjoyed this sound that came out of it!  But was does it sound like?

Inspired by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, I present to you WIP (Work In Progress). It's about crafting in quarantine, a love-letter to all of the projects we have started but not yet finished. 
Lyrics and vocals by Grace Dobush, audio engineering by Franzi Kunze. 

WIP LYRICS
I said handmade freak, seven days a week
Got a work in progress, but I ain’t touched it in weeks 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, I’m picking up my work in progress
Need ideas what to do with my work in progress
Got my glitter and my glue for my work in progress

Craft it up, lockdown’s long
isolating, and I’m scarred
Get that work in progress out 
And I’m gonna craft so hard
Get out my room, I wanna make
Something amazing while I’m on break
Knit up a storm, try out my books
Let’s crochet, I’ll share my hooks
Make a mini house, I'll build it cute
a Peewee’s Playhouse substitute
I want to stick all of these googly eyes right on this little facade
Tack it down, iron it tight
Staying home, no end in sight
There’s no rules, and there’s no plans
But let me tell you how I start these trends 

Wait a minute, I ain’t close to finishin’ 
Never interrupt me when I’m scissorin’ 
Never follow patterns, the patterns gotta follow me 
Running out of glitter, gotta go on a shopping spree
Yeah, I go to Michaels, I ain’t snobby
But I never fuck with Hobby Lobby
Got my coupons, got my flyers
Got my cart, tearing up these aisles
Get that glitter and those pens for my work in progress
Get those buttons and sequins for my work in progress
Bust these gift cards just to realize my work in progress
Make it rain if you wanna see my work in progress

Look, I need a glue stick, need a bent trimmer
Need a heat gun, need a light shimmer
Need some fresh felt, I need some jump rings
I can’t forget those Shrinky Dinks
Got coupons? That’s what I’m saying
Project 800 just like my credit
They got a special, well, I'm tryna get it
I got it started, now I gotta finish
I don't quit, I wanna craft
I wanna throw, I wanna cast
I want to make my project miraculous, like something you’d never imagine
My craft game is fire, this project is bitchin’
Try to distract me but I keep on stitchin’
I craft this thing like it’s one day to Christmas 
When I get it finished, you won’t wanna miss this

Your honor, I’m old school crafty
Beastie Boys wrote a whole song about me
Making shit is a messy endeavor
Spill glitter in here, you got glitter forever
Never sell on Etsy, but I don’t keep it 
At the holidays, you know that I sweep it
Handmade gifts for everyone I’m meeting
Leslie Hall, yo, she would love to see it 
If it don't shine, then it ain’t fine
If there’s no glitter, then it ain’t mine
I’m not quite done, don’t have the time
But I’ll pick it up again just like this rhyme

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, I’m finishing my work in progress
Got my basket and my stash for my work in progress
Clear my table, clear my cache for my work in progress
Now get that glitter and those pens for my work in progress
Get those buttons and sequins for my work in progress
I'm talkin' WIP, WIP, WIP, that's my work in progress
Martha Stewart thinks it’s hot, that's my work in progress
