What a Playground Takeover - Josiane b2b Lena Brecht - 04 Nov 2023

SAGAN & STERIOA @ Mensch Meier (Theater Floor Opening, Rave for Good 2k23)

Am Freitagmittag oder -morgen (je nachdem) gegen 11:30 Uhr kommen wir zusammen, quatschen über unsere erste Nacht, die Erwartungen an das Festival und spielen ein paar Songs, um den Beginn des Tarmacs bei uns auf Sphere einzuläuten.
Und dann erwartet euch schon ein schönes Programm mit vielen verschiedenen Interviews.
Ab 12 Uhr spricht Saskia mit den Artists Loy Bonheur (Lila Drache), Gili (Sleepless Floor). In dem Gespräch berichten sie von ihrer Arbeit als FLINTA*-Personen in den Kollektivstrukturen der freien Szene.
Daraufhin öffnet sich die Runde und Joshua kommt mit Goldi (II. Reihe) dazu, um gemeinsam über die Kollektivarbeit und die Erfahrungen sowohl auf als auch unabhängig von dem Festival zu sprechen.
Danach spricht Bella mit Vanessa, die die Rapper Dr. Dorax, der noie und den DJ/Produzent Kulmbach Freitagabend auf der Bühne gesanglich supportet. Dabei handelt es sich um ihren ersten Auftritt als Sängerin, das ist natürlich sehr aufregend und darüber sprechen wir!
Nach den Interviews mit den Musiker*innen wird Jan mit den Leuten vom Direct Support sprechen. Dabei geht es um einen solidarischen Umgang mit Geld abseits vom kapitalistischen System, klassistische Strukturen, die durch dieses System entstehen, und welche Verbindung die Arbeit von Direct Support mit Festivals hat.
…Danach werden wir uns zum Schluss noch einmal über den Tag austauschen und uns ins Festivalgetümmel stürzen.
Samstag hören wir uns wieder!

Groove Aspect - Don't Walk Away (Extended)

Hailing from the ever-vibrant underground of Buenos Aires, DJ, producer, and visual artist Apste makes his debut on ICONYC with 909, a razor-sharp, three-track transmission that blends analog punch with digital poise. With a tactile sense of sound design and an instinct for tension-building, 909 is a record that operates at the intersection of precision and emotion, offering a complex portrait of an artist stretching the edges of club music.

The title track, "909", opens with a sense of architectural restraint as hypnotic synth cascades glide against a grid of steely kicks and needlepoint hi-hats, carving out a minimalist space that pulses with latent energy. Gradually, a spectral vocal emerges—distant, half-formed—imbuing the arrangement with an eerie sensuality. As Apste modulates and reshapes the groove, the track ascends into something more cinematic: a luminous act of synthesis where soul and circuitry collide in full, high-definition release.

"In My Head, In My Dreams" takes a more direct route to euphoria. Anchored by a propulsive bassline and splintered vocal treatments, Apste weaves a dense network of arpeggios and rhythmic misdirection, blurring the line between delirium and control. There's a wild elegance to it all, a controlled chaos that drives the track upward until it breaks through into open sky. It's as emotionally charged as it is rhythmically infectious—a potent reminder of the power of well-calibrated pressure.

Rounding out the trip is "Let's Go Back", a high-voltage closing statement that pays homage to the rave continuum while looking unmistakably forward. With its distorted vocal cuts, acid-washed synths, and relentless low-end architecture, the track feels like a transmission from both past and future. A kind of synthetic memory coded for the dancefloor. Simultaneously chaotic and calculated, it's Apste at his most unfiltered.

With 909, Apste delivers a commanding debut—a fully-formed sonic identity that folds movement, emotion, and raw machine-funk into one blistering statement. A future classic in the making.
