Mika Vainio / PRSZR / RATBAG & Dr. Nexus / Farahnaz Hatam & Colin Hacklander

Concerts start at 22 sharp! Doors open 21:15.

Mika Vainio, currently based in Berlin, was one half of the minimal  
electronic duo Pan Sonic from Finland, (the other half was Ilpo  
Väisänen). Before starting Pan Sonic in the beginning of the 90′s,  
Mika Vainio has played electronics and drums as part of the early  
Finnish industrial and noise scene.

His solo works, under his own name and under aliases like Ø, are known  
for their analogue warmth and electronic harshness. Be it abstract  
drone works or minimal avant techno, Vainio is always creating unique,  
physical sounds.
He has released on labels like editions Mego, Touch, Wavetrap and  
Sähkö and he has been producing among others with Alan Vega of  
Suicide, Keiji Haino, Chicks on Speed, John Duncan and Bruce Gilbert.

PRSZR (pronounced "pressure") is the duo of Rafal Iwanski (from  
acclaimed polish percussion duo HATI) and austrian electronic music  
veteran Pure combining the eerie, computer generated sound world of  
Pure with the archaic, outer-wordly spaceyness of Iwanski's percussion  
play. PRSZR's first album "Equilirium" was released on Swiss label  
Hinterzimmer Records in November 2012.

RATBAG. Julian is also co-director of NK an avant-garde music platform

devices & shnick-shnack. If not playing live, Dr. Nexus is doing  
compositions, sound installations, sound sculptures & some more… The

Duo Colin M. Hacklander & Farahnaz Hatam
Present: "Disneyland? Fuck, man, this is better than Disneyland!"
Round II of their piece prepared for ERTZ Festival #14 (2013) in The  
Basque Country earlier this month. This year's festival was dedicated  
to exploring 'Los Sonidos de la Guerra' (the sounds of war). This  
piece considers war through sonic signifiers & psychology via an  
elusively didactic effort towards achieving an eventual practical  
implementation of meta-jurisprudence. Drums, SuperCollider and more.

Colin Hacklander plays drums & percussion & electronics. Based in  
Berlin. Drummed for Capillary Action, The Observatory, Minneapolis  
Free Music Society, & as GOOD GOD. Has played Xenakis & Stockhausen,  
toured with Charles Hayward, and performed with Doudou N'Diaye Rose.
