Mix for SCB's NEXUM including 2 originals.

Siciliano Contemporary Ballet: 
http://www.sicilianocontemporaryballet.com/#/home

SCB presents a new site-specific performance at Alte Münze, Berlin as part of CORONA CULTURE.

Nexum is a depiction of the pandemic and how it has interrupted human routine and created global imbalances. People have endured many difficulties and are still experiencing the growing pains caused by such dramatic transitions.

However, the disruption to our pace of life gave people time to reflect and forced many to address situations they hadn’t before.

Nexum is about resiliency, how life is born through crisis and how we as humans are learning to build new realities in times of constant uncertainty.

This is a 2G event with limited capacity.

Performance: SCB ensemble

Alien Sounds with Theo Nasa  - 02 February 2024

Private Press, is a DJ duo hailing from Warsaw, which specializes in crafting high-energy, dubbed-out tracks with influences rooted in UK hardcore and hip hop. Their musical prowess extends to collaborations with Earth Trax on their label Ziemia and releases on esteemed platforms like Hardgroove, ARTS, Indigo Aera, Rekids, and Oblique. Notably, Private Press made a significant impact with their involvement in the Cyberpunk 2077 project, featuring their tracks in the game and the anime series Edgerunners. This opened up the world of Video Games for them, as CD Projekt recently invited them to collaborate once again.👾

In their SPANDAU20 mixtape, Private Press throw in ideas, unfinished tracks and loops to blend them onto the sonic canvas.🎧 Serving as a sketchbook for their live sets, it showcases recent tracks—both collaborative and individual—alongside discoveries from the depths of their WAV2FINISH folder. The mix also serves as a memoir of their previous studio, a place marked by its rough nature but instrumental in birthing many noteworthy tracks. With juicy chords, jackin' tribals, and bold bass drums, this compilation represents the next significant stride of Private Press's live set.✨

This week on FMB Mixtape Series, we’re happy to welcome the vinyl-only DJ & music producer, Tarkno, hailing from Australia. As always, we first caught up to find out more about the mix & what he’s been up to lately…

I am currently getting ready to head back on tour in Europe and play some exciting events. This means a lot of packing, organizing and planning has been taking place.

The mix was actually recorded back in my home studio, in Melbourne, Australia during my holiday break. This gave me access to my entire record collection, so I made sure to select some hidden gems that hadn’t made their way into my bag yet. 

The idea for this mix was to play strictly old school tools from my personal collection. All of the records resonate deeply with me, embodying the true sound of underground techno. While the mix has a consistent theme I made sure to include a few staple tracks that I have enjoyed playing out recently.

30-min arrangement including an original for Siciliano Contemporary Ballet's Arlequin performance in Berlin, Germany.

SCB:
Arlequin, this two-faced historical character of eclectic movement gives inspiration to the first part of the evening. He is grotesque, stubborn, foolish, smooth, and fast but never reveals his true self. He moves in urban surroundings where, through his lack of authenticity, he seems disconnected, unstructured, blocked, empty and on the verge of falling, much like the Urban lifestyle itself. Aren’t we all projecting, wearing a mask or being oppressed by secrets?
