The legendary Köpi, located at 137 Köpenicker Straße in Mitte, is a building complex that has become a symbol for the city's leftwing community since it was first squatted in 1990. Over the years it was legalised and has become a safespace for alternative lifestyles and autonomous viewpoints, welcoming socialists, anarchists, queers and musicians alike. Controversial to some, essential to others: Köpi symbolises the tensions inherently at play in the city since the fall of the Berlin Wall and rise of squatting. 

As always, music is the common denominator here and Oliver Koletzki delivers the perfect soundtrack with this new release, while Chrisse Kunst renders the visuals.

They described it as a cacophony of sounds that started to merge and wind together, the relaxing sound of water pouring into the machines, while others gave us a rhythmic woosh-wooshing chord as they laundered their contents, and an occasional upbeat turn as they shifted into their rapid spin cycle.  All of this was accompanied by a background of dryers humming their sustained vibrations.

Bringing a modern perspective to nomadic-style music, Jordanian alternative duo Fairplay intricately weave musical journeys, taking travellers across a voyage characterized by an eclectic, deep, yet unpredictable route. Releasing on labels like Kindisch, Stil Vor Talent and Bar 25 their approach favours organic sounds, often focussing on the trippy and the obscure, to create deeply layered, spellbinding productions.

Formed by Faisal and Fuad who met in their native Jordan before moving to study in the UK and USA, the duo started out promoting their Kollective Music parties, which welcomed electronic stars like Phonique, DJ T., Subb-An and Mihai Popoviciu. Buoyed by the success of these events they formed Fairplay and started Djing and producing together. 

From the very start the music they made had always been deep, unpredictable and evocative, with Fairplay often incorporating Middle Eastern and Arabic sounds and instruments into their productions. A love of both nature and their travel experiences has shaped the grooves and melodies of Fairplay, resulting in music that feels contemplative, even as it propels you onwards.
