CCL

Berlin

...

While many DJs approach genre and scope adventurously, few are as expansive and unique as CCL. With an incisively technical and uncannily creative approach to mixing, and a ravenous appetite for music of all kinds, they unite the unimaginable. As a DIY festival organizer and record collector, drawing from their experiences in Bristol, the DIY scene of Seattle and the American Midwest, CCL has a unique aﬃnity for fluidity and liminality, weaving music together through distinct narratives that open wormholes between all genres and tempos. From their critically acclaimed radio show liquidtime to their subglow residency at Berlin institution Ohm, to best clubs and festivals worldwide, they showcase their unique take on sonic storytelling with a highly adaptable sense of dancefloor intuition.

Harmonizing and connecting disparate sound into bold and enticing ecosystems is constantly present in their DJ sets–blooming and molting through a plethora of infectious steppers, psychedelic techno, supple house, dusty 80s synths, glittering footwork, psychedelic post-punk guitars, bubbling drum and bass, twisted dub, and all that lies beyond and between.

livwutang

New York City

...

livwutang sits within a modern continuum of DJs whose sound can't be contained to one particular style or genre
- she instead delivers a distinctly eclectic array of exuberant kinetics, introspective strength, & chaotic dexterity to any dancefloor she's a part of. Beginning her DJing journey amidst the liberated frequencies of pirate radio & the psychedelic embrace of DIY rave in Seattle, her expressive practice has only continued to evolve & connect her inner world to those around her. Underpinned by elegant buoyancy & an unrestrained sense of manifestation, her mixing accesses a constantly shifting point of serenity - subtly creating full fledged sensory experiences, always attuned to immersive narrative building & delivered with a keen sense of danceability, confidence, & poise. It's within this spellbinding maelstrom that she brings a unique & adventurous flare to DJing, constantly reinventing her present surroundings to create innovative glances into the past & future. While her style is grounded within the unifying spatial awareness of dub and the joys of dance music's renegade sound, lifelong influences from her musical upbringing are channeled into her enthralling musical vision - an enchanting sonic palette deftly maneuvering between the jubilant rhythms of Central & Western Africa, the innovative momentum of Black American music, & an expansive love of timeless vocal flourishes and earworm melodies from the last 60 years of popular music.

Daniel Wang

Berlin

...

Daniel Wang has been involved in Clubs and Dance Music for a very very long time now! Yes, he lived in downtown New York in the 1990s, but now he has been a Berliner for over 22 years. He first played at Ostgut (the original Berghain) in 2001, and has been a regular DJ at almost every queer club + party here, including Horse Meat Disco and Cocktail d'Amore. He still has residencies at the queer club Schwuz and at Paloma Bar in Kreuzberg.

But most importantly - everyone knows this - Daniel Wang just loves to dance and have fun with people on the dancefloor! He hates big commercial festivals and boring laptop techno made by cut-and-paste. Let Daniel play the violins and guitars and Salsoul congas, and get everybody into a big happy circle together. He brings his joyful spirit and deep musicality to every gig.

Bell Towers

Berlin

...

Moving curiously through dance music as a DJ and producer since 2009, Bell Towers has had five years of fun with cult Melbourne party Bamboo Musik (RIP).

BT’s DJ sets flirt with 4/4 basement house, flimsy synthetic pop, cheap and chic funk, and emotional sunrise burnouts. He connects the dots and gives the floor his own idiosyncratic interpretation of ‘dance music history’. You might’ve heard the tracks the first time around, but the point here is that you haven’t heard them played like this.

subglow functions as an organism that flourishes in the spirit of ritual and collective intention, named by CCL in Berlin, at its spiritual home, Ohm. subglow is rooted in a deep love for soundsystem culture in all its forms – all music that makes subs glow.

subglow thrives….

when subs are worshipped, central, glowing

when femmes, queer people and nerds who love to get freaky dance in the front

where the dance is sacred while wry smiles are exchanged

where playfulness, psychedelia and experimentation run freely

where storytelling, intention, respect and reverie for this culture are held dear

Expect dub, dubstep, jungle, live instrumentation, jazz, techno, house…and more.

Expect a night of juxtapositions – darkness and lightness, futurism and deep acknowledgement of foundations, eclecticism and ceremony. Expectations are challenged, and spirits thrive.

From CCL

“Open Ground offers a unique opportunity for subglow to thrive on what many have called the most beautiful sound system in the world, and offer a new form of intention via travel to Wuppertal. This collaboration means an exchange, and beckoning of a new spirit that is both ephemeral and enduring long after the dance is concluded– do not miss it.”

“For the opening set, I’m excited to welcome Open Ground’s Elke – she brings the deep wisdom of a record clerk from institution Hardwax, and has been highly recommended by so many. Opening sets are an art, and I’ve heard Elke is one of the best. Her eclectic approach spans genres, tempos and eras.”

“I will play next, warming the room further with records and tracks that I’ve been craving to play on this sound system since my last visit. It was an honour to end the night last August after the incredible Richard Akingbehin & Tikiman, and Cousin and Lowki for the Kynant Records night.

This time I’m going for sensual, dubby, deep, trance-inducing, but kaleidoscopic, full of elasticity and bounce and guttural bass.”

Next, subglow favourite, Introspekt will step up to the decks. Introspekt is not only one of the most exciting producers of our generation (her debut album on storied Dubstep label Tempa received universal acclaim) but also one of the most astonishing and skilled DJs I’ve encountered. Expect three-deck blends that unearth rhythms from deep within the Earth's core; her sensual flair will both thrill and delight you as you dance in ways you have never danced before.

Closing out, subglow welcomes the debut of livwutang, a long-time friend from the underground scene of Seattle, now based in New York. Liv is one of my favourite DJs on this planet, and it makes sense that she has become an underground favourite that somehow unites music nerds, heads and anyone looking to feel deeply - her crates and emotional sensitivity and capacity for storytelling are second to none. Her style is grounded within the depth and spatial awareness of dub, while being influenced by the jubilant rhythms of Central & Western Africa, and the innovative momentum of Black American music. Classic and futuristic at once, be prepared to shed a tear when you least expect it.
