Die Uhr zeigt die späten Stunden des Mittags an und drängt darauf hin, dass es Zeit wird zu servieren. Um sie herum pfeift, sprudelt und klackert es, hunderte Düfte steigen in die Luft und an ihre Nase heran. Süße, tief saftige, hauptsächlich samtige Noten einer unerschöpflichen Vielfalt von Grundzutaten, die gemeinsam ineinandergreifend den aufbrodelnden Topf zum Überkochen bringen...würden, doch die Disco Wölfin regelt die aufkochende Situation und bringt die Stimmung zurück zum Simmern. Eine kleine Pause, in der sie abschmeckt, neue Würze einstreut und rührt und rührt und rührt. Denn die Herrlichkeit köchelt in Ewigkeit, Ramen

LENI | Fusion Festival 2024 | Velvet Soup [Bachstelzen]

just for fun I reactivated my soundcloud account and put the recording of the show we did at Fusion Festival 2024 (Germany) at Velvet Soup stage (Bachstelzen).
It’s just a a mono iPhone recording (very automatically compressed, since was recorded as directly via the iPhone mic).
But it gives a feeling of the overall vibe we had =)

Thank you Zé Aurélio for playing together and Júlia von Montfort for dancing

ROSSANO FROM BRAZIL live at Fusion Festival 2024

🎵 She Knows (live) [ at ] Fusion 2024 [ Live-Special ] 🎵

Today we are back with a very special recording from this year's Fusion Festival. The two exceptional artists Teresa Tomás and Marcel Dadalto aka SHE KNOWS are delighting us today with their unique and above all danceable live recording from this years Velvet Soup Stage at the famous FUSION Festival 2024. Incidentally, large parts of their live performance come from their latest album ‘Nervous Bliss’. It's worth a closer look. 

As usual, you can find out more about their performance and musical background in our short but sweet interview.

+++INTERVIEW+++

✔️ What are your musical Influences?
The music we make has a lot of influences from our backgrounds and life experiences. Marcel from Brazil and Teresa from Spain - our cultural heritage from both countries is very present in the way we listen to and make music. Of course we listen to a lot of electronic music, but not only. Although our sound is different from other electronic artists like Acid Pauli, Hostox, Viken Arman, Stimming among others, their work continues to inspire and influence us.

✔️ What makes a good “afterhour”?
A combination of good music, good people, a cosy setting and the creation of great moments together.

✔️Do you have any thoughts you would like to share about your set?
This set essentially features our new album ‘Nervous Bliss’, which we've just released on Bar 25, but with the tracks rearranged for the dancefloor. Stronger beats and bass lines, and new arrangements played live with the help of drum machine and few synths.

✔️What was your experience of the set you recorded at Fusion 2024?
Playing at Fusion is always a joy and excitement. It was also the last gig we had together from our album tour before Marcel went back to Brazil and it was super fun to play it at Velvet Soup Stage, which has been hosting us over the past years.
We worked on this set for basically a month and then we were fine tuning it on the gigs just before Fusion. We usually learn a lot from listening to what we did, and making decisions afterwards on what's working or what we could do better next time is very helpful. Sometimes it's great to also learn from happy accidents that often happen in live situations and becomes later part of the official arrangement next time we play. We hope you enjoy it <3!

LENI’s sound is rooted in Deep House, but always finds a way to surprise, blending unexpected influences and emotional layers to create a vibe that’s both dynamic and intimate.
Guided by a sense of movement, her sets flow effortlessly - fluid, deep, and always in motion. She knows when to push forward and when to hold back, crafting journeys that ebb and flow with a natural intuition. From subtle grooves to driving rhythms, LENI creates spaces that pull you in - always in the moment, yet resonating far beyond the night itself.

Growing up inspired by the raw energy of underground parties, she was drawn to the unspoken connections that music creates from an early age on. From throwing her own parties with friends in her small hometown to spending countless nights on dancefloors, LENI has always been deeply connected to the pulse of the electronic scene. 

In 2019, LENI’s path led her to Leipzig, where she became an integral part of ost:end - a now emerging club project that is more than just a venue. Rooted in a shared vision of music and culture, it brings together artists, cultural workers and DJs who are shaping new spaces for creative exchange in all types of forms.

Imagine you're at a great techno party and have just heard the last track when the DJ switches on the lights and a murmur spreads through the crowd: It's time for the afterhour!

Welcome to a world where the sun is not the enemy, but a silent witness to sleepless nights and unlimited dance floor adventures

The afterhour is more than just an extension of the night - it is a universe of its own full of quirky, heartfelt and often hilarious moments. It is the place where the music lives on, time stands still and the party community forges its strongest bonds - even if it is sometimes only perceived with half an open eye and a wry smile. 

Over 10 years we host our famous podcast series. Which started as an small idea of some Afterhour nerds developed over the years to something special for us ♥️

In the beginning, we focused on finding and supporting (un)known artists through blog posts, reposts and podcast contributions. Gradually, we expanded our sections to include live recordings and premieres. In-house releases and events were not long in coming. 

Join us and dive into the world of Afterhour Sounds. https://t.me/afterhour_sounds  🌈 🎵 🪩
