DJ Sprinkles at Panormabar/Berghain 29.1.2010 review

by dr0fn0thing

DJ Sprinkles is the artist name of Terre Thaemlitz, a genderactivist, writer and artist.

To prelisten to some of S. tracks, go here to get an impression of the style. It’s political flavoured minimal house maybe… In the set there were no tracks like the one I linked as an introduction, it was not a presentation of own stuff, but more a party-orientated set of course. I don’t know so much about the background and all the concepts of this artist yet, I was told some stuff by a flirty gay at the party, but well people tell you anything to flirt :)

It started by reading an interview and digging up some info, after which I was eager to go to Panoramabar in Berghain last friday, I wanted to see the person behind this postmodern queer radical theories play music.

At the beginning, I was a bit surprised, no queer extravaganza on the first sight (apart from maybe in the music, the opener track was just happy electronic music to me). But maybe that’s the artistic concept, not to fullfill the expectations that you might have associated with queer and trans style. Because in the end it’s about that, getting over the categorizations that are made through outward appearance, to make room for diversity.

So on the one hand I was delighted by the subtle and interesting set, where “politics” only appeared in the selection of vocal tracks and in the general artistic attitude. But on the other hand I was suprised how well the music flowed in the background as entertainment while people where flirting and bragging in all the old patterns.

Rødhåd – the city of lost children

by dr0fn0thing

here’s a deep set by Rødhåd of Dystopian Music from Berlin:

it’s called the city of lost children and commemorates the early death of Ramin Raissi aka Ruin 2 years ago, R. was a music enthusiast, part of the Berlin techno scene and journalist for various projects.

Rødhåd mixes the deep and full sounds that R. promoted. If you are capable of reading german, one of the his last texts as a music journalist might be interesting to you.

Rødhåd will play on the Berghain Klubnacht the 9th/10th of January. Panorama Bar will be closed on this day, as they are renovating and reopening it on the 22nd of January.
