Fog Puma In Karl's Kutter At Fusion 2013

Imagine a sunny day on a boat, floating through Berlin waters. What music would you like to listen to or share with everyone on board?

With this question in mind, we reached out to our friends and everyone came back to us with another musical interpretation. The result are the tinyboat sessions - a collection of mixtapes as diverse as our community. Anything that brings joy or lets our thoughts wander is welcome.

Today, we are thrilled to introduce @alle_anders and his three-hour journey of fresh and vibrant sounds, recorded after a day spent at La Barca during its construction phase. We are immensely grateful to have you as part of our musical family ♥

Get ready to embark on a mesmerizing ride. 
Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Today we are happy to introduce you to @lisathaens and her juicy downtempo journey. 
„Before I pressed the record button, I closed my eyes and imagined floating towards sunset with all my loved ones dancing barefoot on carpets around me. I chose spontaneously track by track, honoring the musical creations of the people I appreciate. And during the recording of the whole set I felt I light fresh breeze through my open windows, as if we were actually on La Barca at this specific moment. It felt very special.“

We are immensely grateful to have you as part of our musical family ♥️

Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Today we are so happy to introduce you to our dear friend @ivonneleon and her vibrant mixtape session!

"Durante la grabación de este set, imaginé a mis hermosas amigas en el momento en que estábamos subiendo a la barca, dejando las preocupaciones en la tierra y sintiéndome preparada para sumergirme en la música y el baile. Pensé en el momento en que podamos bailar bajo el cielo soleado y sintiendo el suave balanceo del agua bajo nuestros pies y el ritmo pulsante de la música que nos une, nos libera y nos llena de alegría. Me siento muy feliz que cada vez está más cerca ese momento!"

We are immensely grateful to have you as part of our musical family ♥️

Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

We are thrilled to present to you our dear friend, @apsolismusic, and her captivating downtempo tunes.

Ana Paula made her way to Berlin from vibrant Mexico City last December. Since her arrival, she has been on a journey of self-discovery, infusing her new environment with her distinct style and exciting findings. This mixtape beautifully narrates her personal tale of embracing a new home, undergoing growth and transformation, and embarking on an exploration of both self and surroundings.

We are immensely grateful to have you as part of our musical family ♥️

Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Ahoy and welcome to our Tiny Boat Sessions, Luigi Russo (@luigi-russo-26). 

Our cherished friend from Napoli has graced us with yet another extraordinary mixtape session. "This mixtape exudes the essence of gathering, as I envisioned the sun casting its warm glow through the expansive glass windows, gently descending towards the horizon. It's a scene where everyone eases into the evening, moving freely to the rhythm, engaging in playful flirtation, and savoring unforgettable moments of joy."

We are immensely grateful to have you as part of our musical family ♥️

Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

let's all do it again!
we catched a lot of love and fun in the friday evening sun with sin family at the beach.
but even when almost everything is perfect, sometimes something goes wrong. unfortunately our live recording crashed because of less turntable grounding (although they were properly grounded to the mixer we had some bad background noise).
so we decided to do it again. 
for your pleasure: a love thang with the same setting, memories of an absolute evening, smooth and lazy.

Bonjour à los Tiny Boat Sessions, cher Océane (@oc-ane-0).
Hailing from France, Océane has been an active part of Berlin’s music scene for many years already, spoiling us with her danceable and playful sounds. 

„When I recorded this mixtape, I envisioned us at the threshold of a beautiful journey aboard La Barca. My choice of music is a warm welcome for everyone on board, sparking our collective curiosity about the destinations ahead. My aim was to create a sanctuary, a safe island far from reality, where we can share stories and emotions, fostering a sense of belonging, infinite possibilities, and freedom."

Make sure to check out her next shows: @oc-ane-0 — and if you are in Berlin in January 2024, join her (and us) on 05.01.2024 in Beate Uwe!

Thank you so much for sharing your groove with us and welcome to the Tiny Boat Sessions family ♥️

And now, sit back, relax, and enjoy!

BeHome - Schlafzimmer

Willkommen in unserem musikalischen Zuhause BeHome.
Wir bringen euch den Cafe direkt ins Schlafzimmer, ans Bett. 
Ihr könnt den ganzen Tag in Einsam- Zweisam- Dreisamkeit im Bett liegen bleiben, euch lieben,  gegenseitig Träume erzählen, den Orangensaft über das frisch bezogene Bett kippen und Musik hören. 

Den ersten Teil unserer musikalischen Wohnungsbesichtigung, kredenzen euch @fereinwonung-koratien aka. @deinbollek & @lsdaensen . 

Ein Frühstücksschmaus durch die verschiedenen Zeitzonen des Schlafzimmer-Universums. Begleitet durch den schlabberigen Sound des Hundes, der euch den Traumhonig beim wach werden aus den Augen leckt. Croissants bei Liebe im sechs achtel Takt. 
Ein hingebungsvolles Leben im Schlafzimmer. Mit voller Leidenschaft der Faulheit gewidmet. Und ehe man sich versieht ist es auch schon wieder Dunkel und die nächste Runde bunte Träume ausdenken steht an.  
Und was habt ihr schönes geträumt ?

Großes Dankeschön an:
