Techno at the End of the Future, Episode 2: Berlin | On Music

HKW Podcast

A pluri-disciplinary institution in Berlin of visual and performative arts, music, architecture, literature and scientific discursive formats 🌊

Around 1989, what were the promises of techno and its fictions? How are they significant today? And to whom?

Episode 2 focuses on past, present and future of the Detroit-Berlin axis. By means of an interview collage, writer and Make Techno Black Again activist DeForrest Brown, Jr., Lerato Khathi aka Lakuti (founder of Uzuri Recordings and the Bring Down the Walls initiative), Boris Dolinski (resident DJ at Berghain) and Mark Ernestus (musician and founder of the Hard Wax record store) explore how the rapid growth of club culture in Germany after 1989 relates to techno’s origins in the Black neighbourhoods of Detroit.

Narration by Christine Kakaire, directed and produced by Julia Vorkefeld, script and concept by Arno Raffeiner
