Free, outdoors and under palm trees: this summer, the DURCHLÜFTEN music festival will once again transform the Humboldt Forum's large Schlüterhof courtyard into a lively meeting place for sound, rhythm and culture.
Over four weekends, music from all over the world will radiate from the stage: from the raw energy of Mexican cumbia punk to the hypnotic groove of Kenyan dodo blues, from the electrifying syncopation of Congolese soukous to the powerful messages of Afrofuturist big bands.
Japanese folk with a Caribbean influence, soulful jazz, hip-hop and the joy and resilience of the Frafra gospel round off this celebration of sound - boundless, multi-perspective and irresistibly danceable!
DJ CHI aka Robert Machiri (Zimbabwe, South Africa)
Robert Machine aka CHI is a sound artist and collector of sound-related objects. His work takes place at the intersection of two modes of operation: curatorial concepts and a multidisciplinary production of artworks that draw on decolonial discourses. These works manifest themselves in embodied critique, processes of learning and unlearning, interweaving sound, music and image production.
His best-known project, PUNGWE, is an interdisciplinary endeavor that explores African soundscapes and the contemporary artistic discourses and spaces associated with them.
