Underground Institute Festival # Night 2
Resonance Extra presents two nights of the Underground Institute Festival, which was broadcast live from Silent Green, Berlin and Panke Culture on the 8th and 9th December 2022. Sonic exploration, custom built instruments, sound art and avant-garde pop music, featuring some of the most adventurous sonic artists active today.
On this second night, live performances from Silent Green by Limpe Fuchs and Alexandra Cárdenas. Then we have an hour's break and move to Panke Culture for a DJ set by Xiu Xiu, and live performances by Das Kinn and Ya Tosiba. Then, a set by Zoe Mc Pherson.
Full lineup (GMT):
- Limpe Fuchs live (6 - 7pm)
Percussionist, sound-sculpture builder and pioneer sonic explorer from rural Bavaria, Limpe Fuchs' ongoing legacy expands over 6 decades. She uses her large scale self-built instruments made of metal, wood, and stone, as well as the viola and the voice creating a tapestry of sound.
- Alexandra Cárdenas live (7 - 8pm)
Colombian composer Alexandra Cárdenas is best known for her performances with live coding, though she has composed contemporary pieces for a variety of musical formations (orchestra, ensembles, soloists). Her work researches the algorithmic behavior of music, and musicality within code.
1 Hour Break
Live from Panke Culture:
- Xiu Xiu DJ Set (9 - 10:30pm)
Angela Seo and Jamie Stewart will play a DJ set of curious music from all places and all times interspersed with environmental field recordings and animal sounds. Xiu Xiu's own music evokes uneasiness and challenges the listeners' comfort in a most insightful way.
- Das Kinn live (10:30 - 11:30pm)
Toben Piel (half of the Frankfurt-based avant-garde / techno-pop duo Les Trucs) stops for a visit with a new blend of Post Punk and crisp analog electronics.
- Ya Tosiba live (11:30pm - 12:30am)
Azerbaijani-born Zuzu Zakaria borrows from traditional music from the region, woven into cutting edge Scandinavian electronica and hip hop, using rhymes in her native Azeri tongue, in the tradition of Meykhana (‘winehouse’) word artists, which was prohibited during the soviet regime.
- Zoe Mc Pherson DJ Set (12:30 - 1:30am)
Mc Pherson's intricate, adventurous sci-fi vocabulary mixes everything from performance, multimedia, DJing, sound design, installation and electronic music production. A recent work of theirs was presented at CTM Festival as a virtual digital exhibition, within an innovative 3D environment.
