OneBeat at Karneval der Kulturen 2012

This weekend Onebeat meets the Viva con Agua stage at the Karneval der Kulturen 2012 for the second time. In the middle of the Carnival’s street festival between 4 big stages and around 300 market stalls we’ll be running a small stage in Zossener Straße. It will be bigger and with better sound then last year and our Bands, DJS and live-Acts will be playing through out sunday the 27th of May.

We’re very pleased to present:
13:00 – 14:00 Lavoisier (Concert)
14:00 – 16:00 Ma Tias (DJ Set)
16:00 – 17:00 Kyson (Live)
17:00 – 18:00 Wermonster (Live)
18:00 – 19:00 Bacalao & Sonne (Live)
19:00 – 21:00 James A. Shaw (DJ Set)

Viva con Agua de Sankt Pauli is a charity organization and open network, working for the funding and implementation of water projects around the world and thus enabling people to access clean water. All artists will be playing for free thus supporting Viva con Agua’s activities. Be sure to check out their website and facebook site. Big up to James for making the flyer.

We hope to see you sunday, thanks for sharing!

How to Eat Cultures? A Transatlantic Melting Pot

13.05.12 by Lukas

Lavoisier Radio Show Reboot.fm

What does Cultural Cannibalism mean? Was Antropofagia the forerunner of Tropicalismo? Why did Caetano Veloso leave Brazil at the end of the sixties? Is there a link between Portuguese traditional music and South American sounds? Was folk music for the Carnation Revolution what Facebook has been nowadays for the Arabian Spring? And what has a well-known chemist to do with all these questions? Lavoisier, a young Portuguese singer and musician couple, is taking us on a trip through many decades and influences, eating cultures like Pac Man swallowed his pills. Bon appétit!

Back in March we announced an experimental radio feature about Lavoisier, their music and “eating cultures”. Here’s the soundcloud stream. Have fun!

Moderation: Lavoisier & Bernd Robionek
Music: Lavoisier
Editorial: Bernd Robionek, Lavoisier, Henning Schärfke
Production: Lavoisier, Henning Schärfke

lavoisier live at sehsuechte 2012 2

Like last year we went to Potsdam to present OneBeat acts at the sehsüchte lounge stage. Sehsüchte, Europe’s largest international student film festival, is entirely organized by students of the HFF, and dedicated to the international young generation of filmmakers. A melting pot of cultures and ideas, so we where happy to provide our contribution. We invited Lavoisier, wo already came to sehsüchte with us last year, and Sorry Gilberto, the lovely indie-folk duo who played for the first time on a OneBeat stage. Big thanks go out to the whole sehsüchte crew, who where amazingly helpful providing transport and equipment and of course to the artists and everyone who made it to our session!

Live Recording – Wermonster as Eugénie at Experimental Session#3

06.05.12 by Lukas

wermonster as eugine experimental session 3

On Friday the 13th of April of 2012 we invited Nico aka Wermonster to show us an improvised performance of his new project called “Eugénie”, the third round of our experimental sessions. He came with his friend Matthieu and they made some noise: frequencies and sounds triggered by audio toys, a guitar and wool, and a bunch of oldschool synthesizers.. finally here’s the recording. Now clearly, this isn’t everyone’s piece of cake, but you can’t deny the imagery evoked with your headphones on and eyes closed. Enjoy.. thanks Nico and Matthieu.
