Schon lange bevor SOLARIS im IfZ Platten auflegte, sogar eine ganze Weile bevor sie überhaupt begann Platten aufzulegen, war der Name Solaris in Leipzig ein Begriff für mehr oder weniger rhythmische Industrialsounds. Zu verdanken ist dies dem schrecklichen Zustand der Leipziger Straßen und Fahrten darauf mit den Bussen des örtlichen Nahverkehrsunternehmens vom gleichnamigen Hersteller. Das Rumpeln, Krachen, Fiepsen und Quietschen, das dabei vernommen werden kann, ist oft gar nicht so weit weg von der Musik, die Iris Hanika im Standard mal als „eine Weiterentwicklung der chinesischen Wasserfolter“ bezeichnete. Aber im Gegensatz zu den Busfahrer*innen beweist SOLARIS dann doch mehr Taktgefühl, mehr Feingefühl für Atmosphäre und weitaus mehr Sinn für Unterhaltung. Deswegen ist es lohnenswert, sich ein paar Minuten in den Bus (oder in die Bahn oder aufs Fahrrad et cetera et cetera) zu setzen, um dann ein paar Stunden zu ihr zu tanzen. Nicht andersherum.

Sunday Sessions Nº187

So ist das, wenn man seinem Held aus der (musikalischen) Jugend dann endlich mal persönlich begegnet: Man hat gehörig die Hosen voll. Vor allem wenn der Anlass nicht eine zufällige Begegnung im Backstagebereich ist, sondern ein offiziell anberaumtes Interview im Studio des Künstlers... Es geht ja auch nicht um irgendeinen Künstler, sondern um einen, der so viel kreativen Output hat, dass ein Künstlerprojekt nicht einmal reicht. Und so ist er alleine oder als Teil von Projekten unter mehreren Namen unterwegs und viele wissen nicht einmal, dass hinter allen der gleiche kreative Kopf steckt. Zu nennen wären da Console, The Notwist, Feathered Sun und natürlich der Name, unter dem er wahrscheinlich am bekanntesten ist: http://soundcloud.com/acidpauli

Bei jedem einzelnen dieser Namen, würde ein genaueres auf das Werk eingehen einen ewig langen Rattenschwanz an beteiligten Namen und Veröffentlichungen nach sich ziehen. Alleine die Tatsache, dass Console nun bereits seit 1995 am produzieren und veröffentlichen ist, spricht für sich. 5 Studio-Alben entstanden in dieser Zeit, so wie ein Live-Album, welches im legendären Pariser Centre Pompidou aufgezeichnet wurde. Acid Pauli wiederum ist auch immerhin bereits seit zehn Jahren am Start und hat neben einem Album einfach unzählige Tracks, Remixe und Produktionen in Kooperationen herausgebracht, dass sie hier aufzuzählen gar nicht möglich ist.

Mit all diesem Wissen und der Erinnerung an unzählige Clubabende in der Münchner Roten Sonne und einigen Fusions im Publikum steht also unser Autor bei Martin Gretschmann, wie Acid Pauli mit bürgerlichem Namen heißt, an einem Donnerstag-Abend pünktlich vor dem Studio in Berlin und freut sich auf das Interview ebenso wie er es fürchtet. Nach den ersten drei Sätzen ist von dieser Nervosität nichts übrig geblieben, denn wie hier zu lesen ist, stellt Martin sich als richtig angenehmer Gesprächspartner heraus: http://www.frueher.com/interview-mit-acid-pauli/

Like "Wonkers"

Wonkers @ Magdalena Berlin, Niejeliebt Party 22.03.2014

Taking the Bassic podcast into the Summer months, Mako brings us a live mix to prepare us for some of his strongest releases to date over the next few. 

Following the long awaited release of "Old Soul" w/ DLR & Fields, he has two fantastic EPs in quick succession; for Metalheadz LTD on 23rd June "The Truthseekers EP" and another for Dispatch on 7th July "Back To The Source EP"

As his Utopia imprint continues to grow, retaining an impeccable degree of quality control, Mako's release schedule remains impressive right to the end of the year, with releases on Symmetry, Warm Coms, Horizons, CIA, plus a collaborative album with DLR on the way for Metalheadz. One of our mostly hotly tipped artists for the rest of 2014, the best is yet to come from Mako

Next up in the Fast Forward Audio Series, we present: Menal Batti

Evoking the sonic tapestry of her journey, Menal Batti invites us to immerse ourselves in her transformative and multifaceted soundscape. A testament to her Swedish origins, now flourishing in the vibrant techno scene of Vienna, and currently a resident at filtr in Brno. Her music is more than just entertainment; it's a raw, pulsating expression of self.

Batti weaves her Kurdish heritage into her musical narrative, drawing inspiration from her father's saz, a traditional instrument that symbolizes her cultural roots. With a profound passion for 90s techno music, she embarked on a musical expedition, cultivating a unique style that elegantly marries disparate elements of the genre into a harmonious entity.

Her dynamic progression is celebrated in the energetic dance floors of local clubs such as Grelle Forelle and PRST, and echoes internationally with appearances for Herrensauna, Marcel Dettmann's "Bad Manners" and playing at venues like Blitz Munich, RADION Amsterdam, Tresor Berlin and Lighthouse Festival Croatia, Menal Batti continues to transmit her compelling rhythmic narratives with an atmospheric touch, demonstrating the evolution of her musical identity. 

Enjoy!

Fast Forward Audio Series #107 - Shanda

The April edition of the Audio Series is here, happy to present you with: Monster

With over a decade of experience under her belt, Monster is now rightfully taking her place among Europe's best DJs. Showcasing her omnivorous taste for euphoric and fun music, Monster can be heard playing techno, house, electro, acid, old-school trance, breaks, and everything in between, usually championing producers from her local Polish scene.

Her career started in the late 00’s at Rozbrat, an anarchist squat and social centre in Poznań, Poland. That's where she started throwing Squat The Electricity nights, working tightly with the local scene, popularising electronic music among activists and activism among electronic music fans. Today, she's a member of Oramics, a Polish platform supporting women, non-binary and queer people in electronic music. Their actions came to worldwide attention thanks to the Total Solidarity compilation.

About the mix:
"The mix showcases some of the fast and modern, mostly 4x4 tracks that I've been enjoying recently as well as some broken beat intermissions. It's perfect for the ending of Venus and Mercury retrogrades that we can now all recover from."

Enjoy!

For the May edition of the Fast Forward Audio Series, we present: Nuir

Nuir is a self-taught producer and DJ based in Paris, known for her boundary-pushing approach to electronic music. Drawing inspiration from a rich electronic music culture that spans IDM, trance, techno, and the free party scene, Nuir has carved out a unique sonic identity.

She made her debut as a producer on Mama Told Ya and has since continued to push boundaries with her sound, releasing music on labels such as Maison Close, Ghetec, and, most recently, TM8.

Rooted in Parisian club culture and the French free party movement, Nuir has performed across numerous European cities, including Copenhagen, Bristol, and Yerevan.

Her music has received support from internationally recognized artists, including Mama Snake and Anetha, affirming her growing influence and fearless ability to merge hardware, software, vocals, and live instrumentation into a singular, evolving sound.

About the mix:
This one-hour mix embodies what I seek during this challenging time we are facing — a sonic space for both release and reflection. Deeply connected to the culture that has shaped my identity, I am now driven to contribute to this vision: music as a powerful political and emotional force, creating a space where everyone can freely express themselves.
I wanted the mix to reach both emotional depths and euphoric highs — blending deep introspection with high-energy club sounds. It's about connection through contrast, and the healing power of dance.

Enjoy!

Fast Forward Productions was formed in December 2015 as a new take on DIY rave culture. All events are built from the ground up, focusing on our local scene and collaborating with like-minded crews and concepts from abroad.
