POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Tomorrow, tune in from 9pm to 11pm CET, we are back with new Synthetic Tales on @90milradio . This edition will feature dark, hard-hitting sounds from @_not_mass_ , merging with leftfield textures from @ka_is_playin , before @boniuvstheworld and @guaxinel close it out with a spokenword piece.

@_not_mass_ was born from a desire to explore darker, harder sounds, pushing the boundaries of music into uncharted territory. This passion for new sonic expression has roots in a lifelong love for punk and rock, influences that shaped his early years as a drummer and continue to infuse his music with bold authenticity.

In his teens, he was immersed in the dim lights and electric atmosphere of local clubs, where he began to build a unique musical identity, rich with intense and unconventional sounds. This journey has since brought him to the stages of iconic venues such as Tresor, About Blank, Corsica Studios, Garage Noord, and more, where his music captivates audiences who crave something fresh and unexpected.

His sets span techno to bass, weaving together broken and hard beats into a style that defies categorization—eclectic, bold, and ever-evolving.

Now part of the Milanese collective Evolvere and one half of the duo Hagva, he continues to push his artistic boundaries and be influenced by the electronic music scene.

@ka_is_playin in love with leftfield sounds, navigating between softness and hardness, not letting the pace settle in one place. Exploring compatibilities and antagonisms, following intuition, breathing and letting go.

Mariana (BoniuVS) @boniuvstheworld is a Berlin-based visual artist, poet, and storyteller. Formally trained in graphic design, her self-taught multidisciplinary approach stems from a perspective that processes vulnerability, beauty and pain into striking visions. When faced with illness, she found in poetry a powerful way to reclaim herself and her creativity.

Coming from a classical background, @guaxinel (António Fonseca) aims to embody the dissonance between eletronic music and orchestral sensibilities through the double bass, pulling from a wide range of drastically opposed influences to create a cohesive sound taken in Berlin by @guaxinel

Finer weather has finally come to Berlin - “fool’s spring” or not, we are ready for the additional daylight. What better place to enjoy it than at your local Brauerei. Let us lure you into Wedding’s industrial backyard to join us for Spring Pour - finest beers and refreshing tunes that will warm your thawing hearts.

Our line-up (schedule tbc):

⋆ Guaxinel ⋆
Guaxinel is a project by 25-year-old Portuguese musician António Fonseca.
Coming from a classical background, Guaxinel embodies the dissonance between eletronic music and orchestral sensibilities with a pop edge.
Their sets don’t shy away from unapologetic bangers or the full-on symphonic, rather choosing to embrace how the two clash while distorting tradition.

⋆ brkfstcore ⋆
Lyon-born and Berlin-based, brkfstcore balances complexity with lightness in his DJ sets. He describes himself as a master of none who plays a little bit of everything and a whole not of nothing. A lover of a good party and a strong espresso, his set will transport you to memories of your favourite Berlin dance floors and long summer days in the park. His deep musical explorations find a home in his project “alpajoie”.

⋆ călin ⋆
Călin is an architect, sound designer, and occasional DJ. His musical work explores imaginative, evocative soundscapes—blending synthetic textures, pseudo-acoustic gestures, and anonymous field recordings into intimate, uncanny compositions. As a DJ, he moves between ambient atmospheres and bass-heavy club moments, creating sets that are both introspective and physical.

Come early - Happy Hour is from 17:00-18:00 - 50% off Bier vom Fass
