Intriguing, underground, Berlin based musicians interested in the borders between music and theatre, language, the visual arts, politics.
Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
A dense, hard, immersive, chaotic spatial performance in sound: a momentary gap in consciousness, free of order or decision.
Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
A meditation on how all of us perform — sometimes reinforcing, sometimes subverting — the shifting categories of gender, sexuality and race.
