Act I

In anticipation of the 2023 edition of the MOSTRA Festival, with whom we joined forces to present you music from some of the most exciting and talented producers and DJs worldwide, in the next couple of weeks, we'll feature several truly outstanding music tales. 

The first mix in our 'Delayed x Mostra' mix series comes from the incredible French producer and DJ based in Germany, Aa Sudd, who has in this past year released two of the most groundbreaking and avant-garde albums of the moment: one with Konduku as Konsudd and another released just a month or so ago on Midgar. 

Aa Sudd's mix is a true masterpiece exploring the dub's hypnotic and atmospheric realms. With intricate and captivating polyrhythms, this mix takes listeners on a psychedelic journey through sound. The various rhythms blend seamlessly, creating a truly otherworldly experience when you listen to it on your headphones.

Aa Sudd will play on the festival's opening day, Thursday, April 6, from 9-11 pm at the Hangar.


THE THREE AXES OF MOSTRA

Local
The pandemic highlighted the importance of local communities, local institutions and local support for one another. We at Mostra continue the commitment to our Local, not only by programming local artists on the line-up, but also through how we choose our suppliers and other collaborations in the city. And we go further: an exhibitors' Fira for the duration of the festival, generating our own media content during the year through MostRadio, the Mostra’m series of debates, seminars and conferences in parallel with the festival, and our ExtraMostra series of events in venues across Barcelona place Mostra’s roots firmly in their local environment.

Inclusive
Mostra is a festival that reflects on the realities that surround us in electronic music. We are committed to breaking the gender gap in a scene that is traditionally very masculinised. We try to reflect this in our programming, in our team, and in the values we promote: we want a friendly and safe space where there is no room for any kind of violence, and where respect for diversity is fundamental. We have developed our own protocol with a gender perspective, and we seek to raise awareness in a transversal way throughout the project.

Sustainable
Mostra is a festival that seeks to be a social and environmental benchmark through its actions. We follow the most up-to-date sustainable protocols and develop good practice in relation to both city and planet. We have created the role of Sustainability Director who leads and implements an action plan based on sustainable experiences; we limit the programming of artists from overseas to reduce our carbon footprint; and we are committed to contracting and collaborating with social integration and social and solidarity organisations from Barcelona.

ABOUT MOSTRA
We are a group of people with diverse backgrounds, but all closely linked to the electronic music and cultural scene in Barcelona and beyond, with involvement in projects such as Paral-lel Festival, Alpenglühen, Sónar+D, Fab Lab Barcelona, Comissió Nocturna, dublab

#17 - Zero Crossing Point - Le rêve du rêve

Programmer of the Macadam club in Nantes (FR), co-founder and resident DJ of the intersectional collective Zone Rouge and co-founder and producer for the No-Scrubs label, the Amazon of nocturnal asphalt, @aasana comes out when the night burns.
The tips of her fingers on the indicator lights, the crowd in excitement and the radiant smiles, the atoms rubbing and the aromas mixing. You can hear the sounds of the city, the sounds of factories and partitioned basements. The poetry of the machine in selection, Asaana plays the sound of abandonment, the one where Bass calls the organism to order. It’s in the chaos that the balance of her sets between Bass Music, Breaks, Hardrum and Techno is drawn.

Joanna OJ mutates and transmutes to create mixes telling absurd stories. From glitchy ambient to intimate breaks to twisted vocals to frenetic bass to cerebral techno to energetic atmospheric dnb to sexy footwork to crazy drums to weird IDM, she crunches genres and pieces the whole together with syncretic taste, the result is a sensualizing surprise that explodes in the mouth.
Joanna OJ is a serious digger, she surrounds you in a deep dream of experimental drama, between aerial bubbles, elusive pulsations and seismic bursts. She runs @caninalrecs , a label to remain lively but fluid in body and nomadic in spirit. She curates a monthly show Canine à la furie on Retreat Radio (Malmö, Sweden) and bi-monthly Di Troglodita on Egregore (Toulouse, France).

For the first album release on Pure Space - and a welcome addition to our Home Listening Series - we are excited to present "At Every Corner" by Mara, a pivotal figure in Eora/Sydney's experimental music community.

Since 2020, the Home Listening series has showcased the introspective and wandering side of the label, featuring releases from Jennifer Loveless, jobfit, and 黑芝麻 (Hēi zhī ma). This series diverges from club constricts, inviting listeners to explore deeper, more contemplative soundscapes.

Throughout "At Every Corner", Mara weaves a rich tapestry of sound, creating captivating composites of audio snippets taken from her travels and performances along the way. The result is a mesmerising long-play that invites the listener into an ever wandering journey.

Next you will hear “Images We've Created”, a track created during a residency in Bundanon with Temporary Position. Consolidating a week’s worth of audio recordings into one layered composition, this track reimagines time and textures. Leaning into the discussions on materiality and live streaming that filled the residency, the track archives fragments of the environment, daily routines and ideas.
