Andres Bucci at Questionmark Bar

Tue, 05 Jun 2012 16:40:00 +0100

We’re proud to present Andres Bucci at the Questionmark Bark on the 23rd for some serious good vibes.

Andres Bucci is no new player in the scene. He has been behind the production consoles for many years now, having built up a solid reputation with his trademark analogue sounds and love for 808s and 101s. The Chilean producer has played Berlins hotspots like Watergate and Panoramabar and has been releasing on various labels. His latest release on Hummingbird, “Mental Menthology” is a full 9 track album featuring remixes from label boss Edgar Jack and Doubting Thomas, getting the attention it deserves by worldwide DJ’s. The new EP “Jackin Jungle” sees the day of light on Pier Bucci’s label Maruca Music and is sounding sweet!

Detour & LXXIII present ‘SEASONS’

Detour has teamed up with LXXIII to create a new quarterly event themed ‘Seasons’ and proudly present our first installment, Spring 2012.

Seasons sets to be something more than your usual Sunday afternoon party; an exploration between electronic music and live art. We’ll be hosting the latest sounds in techno & house music, crafting a musical journey inspired by the current season Spring 2012. This provides a platform for collaborating visual artists to produce live artwork inspired by the music. Each season will be host to new visual artists and fresh ideas, transforming your average Sunday afternoon into something special.

For Spring 2012 we bring you a creative duo from Cyprus; Batu Gundal & Bahar Chirali showcasing their signature project “Captive Moments” for a UK debut. 2 artists, 1 large canvas and a tremendous amount of paint! Aiming to capture the mood of Spring 2012 and to express the feelings one endures, driven by movement, music and the atmosphere. An experiment in live, abstract, action painting.
