Electric Lights – Women in Electronic Music (VOL.1)

Live

Energy, passion and the unique artistic perspectives of women in electronic music unite with the genre's sense of freedom and community. A fascination for the cosmos, the big questions about origins and the future, the amazement about infinity, space and time create an experience that connects us all. Electric Lights brings all these aspects together in a new format, highlighting the special crossover between space exploration, electronic music and photography that lies in the intensive use of technology.

Photographer and DJ Katja Ruge and the musicians she portrays mix electronic beats to expressive visuals and galactic 360° projections live in the planetarium dome. In a cosmic atmosphere, beyond any club, they tell special musical stories, always with a view to current club music. Musically and visually you can expect a mix of driving techno and electro, new wave, italo and kraut through to dark disco, ambient and retro-futuristic 80s sounds.

Guest at the premiere on 18 February:

JakoJako, producer and resident at Berghain, is characterised by her preference for modular synthesizers, which for her is an artistic tool, trademark and passion. With a musical spectrum from dreamy ambient to hypnotic techno and her passion for analogue circuits, creative wiring and experimentation, she has established herself as a formative figure in the Berlin electronic music scene.
