? Planningtorock (EE)

Planningtorock - alias Jam Rostron - is zanger, songwriter, componist, producer en regisseur. Geboren in Bolton, gevestigd in Berlijn en met maar liefst drie veelgeprezen studioalbums boordevol 'left-field dance' op hun naam. En dan hebben we nog niets gezegd over hun vele samenwerkingen, opera's, filmscores en remixes. Als autodidact, non-binair en genderqueer muzikant is Planningtorock al meer dan tien jaar bezig met een welkom ver-queeren van de dance scene. 

Planningtorock debuteerde in de Nillies met de plaat Have It All bij het label Chicks On speed, en vond aansluiting bij andere DIY-buitenbeentjes en gender-outlaws zoals Peaches en The Knife. De herkenbare sound van Planningtorock - beladen, bezwerende dansmuziek met klassieke accenten, onverwachte koperblazers en de typische pitched-down vocals die hun handelsmerk zijn geworden - hebben hen een trouwe fanschare opgeleverd. Met W, hun bejubelde art-pop album bij DFA Records in 2011, ontpopte Planningtorock zich als visionair-politieke producer. Met het album All Love's Legal ("een masterclass in linkse dansmuziek", Mixmag), dat in 2014 werd uitgebracht op Rostron's eigen label Human Level, serveert Planningtorock spandoekachtige slogans ('Patriarchy Over And Out', 'Let's Talk About Gender Baby') en bewees hun talent om pop-georiënteerde muziek te combineren met politieke boodschappen. 

Planningtorocks nieuwste album Powerhouse is hun meest persoonlijke plaat tot nu toe: gevoelvolle, biografische songs die vertrekken vanuit Rostrons ervaringen als non-binaire en genderqueere artiest, en over familie, identiteit en de muziek zelf gaan. Het album werd opgenomen in Berlijn, Londen, New York en Los Angeles en is een ode aan de emancipatie. De groovy plaat combineert Rostrons persoonlijk en artistiek potentieel en is zo een parel binnen de queer pop.

? Virgin Maria (ES)


De Madrileense kunstenares en performer Virgen Maria (Maria Forqué) komt je 'blexen'. Op het slappe koord tussen kunst en muziek demonstreert ze haar blexing kunsten en dan zijn seks, zweet, hitsigheid en spiritualiteit nooit veraf. Maria’s visionaire aanpak, waarbij ze seks en meditatie vermengt door middel van muziek, kan wereldwijd op bijval rekenen en ze performt niet alleen live maar ook als hologram in zowel Azië en Amerika als Europa. Ze werkte samen met Fenty, Gucci, Vetements en Camper, en trad live op in het MOMA en tijdens het MIRA festival in Barcelona.

Join Harshat and Fitz, two experienced comedians from Berlin with very different cultural backgrounds. One, a brooding bad boy having grown up in the hustle and bustle of India. The other, a confused small town country kid from New Zealand trying to adapt to the manic German way of life. Given these two vastly different backgrounds we have a mix of two competing comedic styles; dark, edgy and punchy versus warm, cute and absurd - you guess who is who. Both equally likable and hilarious. We aim to answer the age old question: is funny black and white? Or are there shades of grey? The Comedians: Fitz is a comedian who has performed across New Zealand and Australia to sell out audiences. He has brought his comedy to Europe having moved here in 2023. Fitz's comedic style has been described as warm, punchy and energetic. His shows are jam packed with absurd commentary on life in Europe and wild stories of growing up on a farm in New Zealand. Harshat Grew up between the chaotic concrete jungles and the equally chaotic countryside of India. Currently, he is trying to forget the Bollywood remix tunes but still bring a Desi angle to his comedy in Berlin. He derives his wit from his satirical grandmother and his comedy is based on real life observations and childhood tales. His funny bone was developed as a coping mechanism for his chaotic upbringing and is now used to gain the attention he craves. These two comedians couldn't be more different and have become friends in the most unlikely circumstances. With this show you are really getting it all, guaranteed laughs and very contrasting perspectives. Be ready to be left in stitches saying to yourself "funny really is black and white".
