For Chrystal Chris' birthday on March 21st, 2020 we streamed from our living room in Berlin-Neukölln. We prepared a springy, hope-spreading DJ set with a more non-electronic-slow-relaxed-easy-going approach that has a lot of soul - the perfect music for a Saturday afternoon in quarantine.

If you listen until the end, there is a little message for you...

Saphear: DJ Set & Live Violin Improvisation – A Unique Fusion of Beats and Strings

About:
After years of traveling and changing residencies, @Chrystal-Chris arrived in Berlin, where she met @Sawatzki.
Their shared passion for deep, complex electronic music led to their first performance on a pristine lake – and so, Saphear was born.

Sawatzki, a trained jazz violinist with a classical background, improvises live to Chrystal Chris' carefully curated DJ sets. This synergy creates performances that are truly one-of-a-kind.
Their soundscape blends Ambient, Electronica, Deep House, UK Bass & Breaks, and neo-classical elements, offering a captivating musical journey.

This fusion shines in its own uniqueness, resonating between sadness and felicity, light and darkness, yin and yang. Like crystals thrive with other solute molecules, Saphear grows steadily by attracting people through their enthusiasm and passion for music.

Catch their highly energetic performances – where new crystals take shape.
