Looking for the right Fusiong-Soundtrack? We got something for you! Regardless of weather you’re packing your backpack or are already on the ride heading to Kuko-Headquarters this month's Traumcast Special of Zhart & Rakäthes Recording at Skalar Festival 2024 gives the perfect energy! 

With dark waves, heavy basslines and thriving melodies this set builds up like a stormy sky of thunder & lightning showing that downtempo is not dead. So don’t resist and give in to this malicious pull of rhythm. 😈

Three stormy questions to Zhart & Rakäthe:

🌪What book are you currently reading: 
(Zhart:) The choice - Dr. Edith Eger 
She tells her story of surviving Auschwitz and shares inspiring insights about resilience and the power of choice in our lives. She explores how we can be imprisoned within our own minds and shares tools to free yourself. Her path from being a victim to working as a psychotherapist is truly inspiring.

🌪How do you decide which songs to play during a performance? Is there a specific method or strategy you use?
(Rakäthe:) It of course depends on the time of the day and the occasion but I decide what resonates with me, I go for a specific feeling which can also change over time. I sometimes put the display of my laptop totally dark or close my eyes and skip through tracks without seeing any infos of a track. Shutting down my visual sense helps me to totally focus on what I’m hearing and feeling :)

🌪What hobby would you like to have or pursue? 
(Zhart:)I’d love to kitesurf. Cruising and jumping over waves by using the power of the wind seems super fun.

Liebe ФУЗИОН!
Als wir das erste mal hier waren ist uns ein Lichtlein aufgegangen. Ach so feiert man also mit Liebe (fürs Detail). Dann haben wir das ein paar Jährchen vor den Decks genossen und unseren Horizont mit den wunderbaren Eindrücken der Fusion erweitert. 

Hier jetzt unsere Musik spielen zu dürfen, ist wie ein Traum der wahr wird. Wir hatten nen Heidenspaß hinter den Decks. Vielen Dank an alle Herzensmenschens und Fusionistas die dabei waren.
Danke @varnold. Mit keinem anderen kann man 5 Döner verhaften. Wahrer Goat
Danke an die Freund:innen, die dem Käpt'n einen Piratentrack zum 30. gewidmet haben (@fabiankrooss @frida-darko @kotterzuer @bennowohl @iamwackelkopf @rafner) und danke an @seebo1 der mit uns spontan noch die Dragonball Hommage an Akira Toriyama gebastelt hat <3
Und natürlich dickstes Danke an die @moynfestival kru und @fonattack-inhaerenz für die Einladung zum Extravaganza, der wie wir finden exorbitant adäquat zu uns schabernackschen Zündlern passt! <3

Viel mehr gibt es da wohl nicht zu sagen.

<3

Our birthday may be a week behind us, but we’re not done handing out gifts just yet! 🎁

We’re thrilled to drop our first Traumcast after the summer break, and it’s a live recording by none other than our partner in crime, @mariatheresiavoneberg!

Not only does she co-host our wild Solirave at GartN with @afterhoursounds, but little does many know she’s also a passionate force in our rave scene—promoting new artists, empowering fresh talents, and sprinkling joy wherever she plays. 🔥

And without any doubt you can hear that in her sets. Playing on Sunday evening, this mix drives us between dreamy afterhour vibes and cheeky asswhooping beats. Naughty vocals followed by heavy drops, dark disco beats and funky midtempo grooves turn our living room (or work space) in a casino of strolling cats. 🐈‍⬛

Press the playbutton - on the dancefloor with MtvE nobody gets home empty hearted! 💓

Three purring questions to MtvE;

😺 What book are you currently reading, and how is it?

Wilhelm Tell (Schiller) - No, it’s not for pleasure, but the new item on the compulsory reading list I have to teach at school. The plot is confusing, the political/ historical setting of the play hard to understand. Why someone would think that this is a suitable choice for a bunch of teenagers in the 21st century, will remain a mystery to me.


😽 What is your favorite procrastination activity?

When a pile of class tests is waiting for me to be corrected, it’s definitely digging music, creating funny intros for my sets and watching Ableton tutorials. 


😼 If you could live in any fictional world from a book or movie, where would you choose to live and why?

I would be curious to know what it is like to be Tobias, the protagonist of the novel „Als wir nach den Sternen griffen“ by Theresa Herold. The story is set in the embassy of Western Germany in Prague during the summer of 1989. Tobias is a single parent who fled there with his daughter from the former East German regime (GDR), fighting for his family and other refugees to be granted asylum by the West-German BRD. I’m still fascinated with the circumstances of that time because I feel that we can learn a lot about non-violent protest against a totalitarian political system.

Opening | Pastanaga Expedition Südpol 14.06.2025 

Der Himmel über dem ewigen Nice flimmert in mattem Blau, die Luft ist schneidend klar – ein Tag wie gemacht für Großes. Die Forschungscrew Pastanaga steht bereit, die Grenzen des Bekannten zu verschieben. Nach monatelanger, akribischer Vorbereitung brechen sie heute auf: zur Expedition ins Herz des Südpols, mitten hinein ins ewige Nice.
Mit festem Blick, klarem Kopf und vollem Bewusstsein für die bevorstehenden Aufgaben und Freuden, gehen die Teilnehmer*innen an ihre Grenzen – und darüber hinaus. In den nächsten 24 Stunden zählt jeder Ton, jeder Handgriff ist Teil eines größeren Ziels: Die Exkursion erfolgreich, und mit maximalem Euphorie-Gewinn abzuschließen.
Der Boden knarzt unter den ersten Schritten. Jetzt beginnt es.

VIELEN DANK an die Lieblingscrew @Pastanaga und den Lieblingsclub @suedpol-hamburg aus Hamburg! Wieder mal ein unvergessliches Erlebnis mit Euch! ❤️‍🔥
