BERLINAIRE – a unique intercultural audio visual arts festival series debuts in the Vooruit Gent, Belgium, April 8th-9th 2011.
Despite of (or maybe due to) the tough history of the separation of “the two Berlins”, the city has quickly become a melting pot of cultures after the wall came down in the late 80´s.
A new internationally known and cherished gathering point and workplace for artists of all areas was almost instantly born. Musicians, designers, filmmakers, producers, networkers and other cultural artists choose Berlin and turn to it as the cultural capital of Europe. Both enriching and absorbing the local scene, they come to live here and become an important part of its charming, cosmopolitan nature.

Berlin’s club scene has kept and developed its attractive uniqueness and esteem for outstanding events over the years and seizes new trends from the past, present and tomorrow by manufacturing them within its dynamic community.
The cultural imprint of the past decades – treasured self-made parties, carefully selected line-ups, well chosen venues and concepts and the lovingly decorated event locations off the mainstream – are celebrated every day with synergies and dynamics that can be found nowhere else in Europe.

A hundred years ago, the famous German composer Paul Lincke devoted a hymn to the unique lifestyle and the vivid cultural scene of Berlin. “Das ist die Berliner Luft” (“This is the Berlin air”) celebrated the growing metropole at the turn of the century like no other. It became one of the biggest contemporary operetta pieces ever and inspired the name of the festival series:
BERLINAIRE grasps some of the basic and most essential elements of Berlin’s unique club culture of today and thus brings a real taste of this European capital of culture(s) to all lovers of contemporary arts and crafts.

Birthday

Last Tuesday the 29th was my birthday. Why I'm telling you this beats me since I don't care much about my own birthday. It seems other people care more about it them I do myself. Party hard at college was this week's mission. Mission accomplished, certainly. Tomorrow I'll just have some friends over and chill out, order some pizza, spliffs, beers, and possibly some music.

Only problem: the stereo in the living room only plays cd's, no mp3s. Mmmmpf. Time to spit out some burnt cd's then.

Also, I got my driver's license back today. Driewerf hoera!

Spor apparently likes to change it up! One of my favorite producers comes out with a chill track. Jungle, rave and drum&bass all smashed into one kick-ass track. Don't miss it!

I think I must've listened to Burial's Untrue album over 200 times front to back (that's the only way to listen to it anyway). The counter on my iPod said 150. It's a hate it or love it kind of thing, I guess. This new and long awaited release on Hyperdub is such a tease though. I'm still waiting for the next album.

It’s just been the 1-year anniversary of this tune’s release (we plan to solemnly celebrate this day every year, btw) and, thanks to its brilliance, you’ll hear big name DJs smashing it on the ‘floor for TIME to come.
