SUPERBOOTH20 at FEZ Berlin SUPERBOOTH20 – Trade fair for electronic instruments and handmade music Press Release Berlin, February 2020 SUPERBOOTH20 at FEZ Berlin SUPERBOOTH20 will show all the latest developments in the fields of electronic musical instruments, synthesizers, audio effects, drum computers, music software and all sorts of bizarre and innovative products from April 23-25. About two hundred exhibitors from all over the world will bring the latest developments for the production of electronic music to Berlin. Most of the exhibitors of the last few years are also represented at the fair this year, the list ranges from Ableton to Zoom, from small to large and from analog to digital. Visitors can also look forward to seeing new faces. Among the newcomers are Noise Engineering and Supercritical Synthesizers, from the modular synthesizer segment, Chase Bliss from the guitar effects segment and Bettermaker from the outboard segment and many more. For the exhibitor area additional space has been rented in the FEZ Berlin. A daily updated list of exhibitors can be found here. There are also new event areas in the outdoor area, especially for not-for-sale electronic musical instruments and installations - curated by Adam Chalk from the Galerie GH36 in Berlin Mitte. Program You can already get an impression of the final concert program by looking at the artists who have already been confirmed. Four large stages offer an exciting mixture of the whole range of electronic music until late in the evening. A special experience is provided by the seaside stage, which will be equipped with a 3D sound system from NewAudioTechnology this year. One of the best theremin players in the world - Carolina Eyck - will be demonstrating her skills on it. • The first day promises to be a great experience already - with an experimental set by Headless Horseman, followed by the concert of the British EBM band Nitzer Ebb on the seaside stage. At the end of the day Techno veteran Surgeon will play in the big K1. Also already confirmed is a performance by Emika - she combines her skills as sound designer, classically trained composer and versatile singer and songwriter. 1 SUPERBOOTH20 – Trade fair for electronic instruments and handmade music • On Friday the seaside stage will be very lively with T.Raumschmiere & FuCKetYbUcKetY. Also on the seaside stage Cosmin TRG shows his skills. Besides further concerts of Nguyễn + Transitory and Kamikaze Space Programme Bernard Rasinger shows an extraordinary laser performance - controlled by his modular system. • On Saturday, MATTHS will play (slightly) quieter tunes on the seaside stage, before Lady Starlight performs uncompromising techno. Not to be missed is the A/V show of hackedepicciotto with Alexander Hacke (Einstürzende Neubauten) & Danielle de Picciotto and the concerts of Swarm Intelligence and Kitmun. This is just a small selection of this year's concerts at SUPERBOOTH20. On the official homepage new names and times are added constantly, you can find them here. Education Program The Education area offers a varied program that brings several school classes and other interested participants closer to the world of electronic sound production and composition. This area is supported by the Miller-Zillmer Foundation. Gammons Modular Synthesizer Ensemble introduces students to the topic with a dozen smaller modular systems. Together they develop a composition that the school classes perform daily between 1:30 and 2:00 pm in the auditorium. In addition, Leaf Audio offer a workshop on soldering the Microphonic Soundbox. The team of Selbstgebaute Musik invites for a workshop with the Instrumentenautomatenorchester. And the organizers are also pleased to announce the cooperation with the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, who will offer the workshop Creative Sound Safari. Boat shuttle The boat shuttles take the passengers to the FEZ in the morning and back to Berlin Mitte in the evening after the event. But by leaving SUPERBOOTH20 the music doesn't have to stop yet - for the return trips to Berlin Mitte there are concerts and DJ sets on some of the boat shuttles. In order to experience these exclusive events on the river Spree, it is recommended to book your ticket online in time. The return trips end near the Jannowitzbrücke. From there it is only a few minutes’ walk to the nearby official SUPERBOOTH20 parties at OHM, Melancholie 2 or C-Base. SUPERBOOTH20 now has its own online shop: In addition to the intended significant simplification in purchasing additional trade fair services, there are already some of the popular T-shirts and other merchandise available: shop.superbooth.com 2 SUPERBOOTH20 – Trade fair for electronic instruments and handmade music Pictures from last year's event can be found here: SUPERBOOTH19 A large part of the video documentation of our concerts and events from previous years can be found here: Vimeo or Youtube.

    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Sadness with a Dash of Beats: an Interview with Emika
    Sadness With A Dash Of Beats: An Interview With Emika In a world which celebrates uniformity and mediocrity it is refreshing to find someone actively striving to create something interesting and new. In art, moulds are meant to be broken and stereotypes cast to the ground. One artist who understands this is Berlin resident Emika. Born Ema Jolly, and raised in Milton Keynes, Emika has utilized her classical training in piano and composition to form the foundation for a body of work which has taken in pop, classical, electronica, ambient and more. Never one to settle for the status quo, her music could resemble the gothic pop of Fever Ray one minute, the futuristic electro of Drexciya the next. By JOHN BITTLES Sadness With A Dash Of Beats: An Interview With Emika I first came across Emika’s music back in 2011 with her wonderful self-titled debut LP which evoked a post- everything world of noir pop and fractured R&B. Since then the artist has gone on to furrow her own singular, yet eclectic path. Amongst a succession of stirring releases, we have had the hazy techno pop brilliance of DVA, gorgeous piano ballads (Klavirni), 80s style synth pop (Drei), orchestra led melancholy (Melanfonie) and lots more. Late last year saw the release of Falling In Love With Sadness, an honest, revelatory record which spoke as much to the brain as the heart. Released on World Mental Health Day the album was full of moments of sonic wonder and was one of 2018’s overlooked gems. Last month Emika led a project to revisit the songs from Falling In Love With Sadness with a thoughtful and accomplished remixes EP.

SEPT. 2014 Dear guests, Welcome to the 5th Berlin Music Week! We’re looking forward to sharing with you this new and constantly evolving event, which has become an indispensable part of the Berlin music scene. We would like to thank you for wanting to be part of it and for taking an interest in our work, which has been made possible by our fantastic team within Germany and abroad. We can guarantee that you won’t just have a huge amount of fun, you’re sure to also take away lasting impressions and inspiration for your future work. In the true spirit of this city, we’ve taken the soundtrack of the movie “everything was better in the old days” and tossed it in the bin. Instead, we set out to look for – forgive the megalomania, it’s part of it all – the future of music. We found what we were looking for in the hundreds of artists who applied for the Berlin Music Week. They will be hitting our stages at the award shows, the showcase festival First We Take Berlin, and the Berlin Fes- tival, as well as on trucks, rooftops or in the streets for the new First We Take the Streets. We also found the future of music in another kind of band –the startup companies that are bringing change and innovation to the music industry, opening up new possibilities.

  • BRANDT BRAUER FRICK Foxtel Festival Hub
    Germany // Music Australian Premiere BRANDT BRAUER FRICK Foxtel Festival Hub Expertly programmed, sumptuously arranged and performed with virtuosity, the genre-bending sonic perfection of Brandt Brauer Frick will be heard live in Australia for the very first time at this year’s Foxtel Festival Hub. “Groups of clever Germans in suits are sadly lacking For most of its history, dance music has been dedicated to replacing in today's pop climate. Step forward BBFE…” – The the acoustic with the electronic—but Germany’s Brandt Brauer Guardian, UK Frick turn the formula on its head. This classically trained trio take the rolling grooves of Chicago house Foxtel Festival HuB and minimal techno and transform them into jazz influenced synth- and-string rhythmic assaults that hover somewhere between Berlin Saturday 17 OctoBer nightclub, chamber ensemble and the subcutaneous atmospherics Doors at 11pm of a John Carpenter film. $45 Transaction fees may apply Academy grad Daniel Brandt got started in electronic music after playing the drums in several jazz, rock and pop bands, as well as www.festival.melbourne classical orchestras. With his close friend Jan Brauer, he started the Ticketmaster 136 100 duo Scott, who made it look easy to produce deep jazz-influenced club tunes for forward-thinking dancefloors. But it was when they #melbfest met modern classical composer Paul Frick that really sparked their imagination, and in 2008 the three of them started the exploratory trio. Building on a basis of live acoustic instruments and electronic sounds, they create their own kind of acoustic techno. Prepared piano, vibraphone, synths, rhodes, drum kits and bass guitars are all mixed to walk the fine line between club and concert hall.
