Travel on the Beat is an initiative of Gustavo Morales, musician-percussionist, DJ, explorer and producer of experimental, ambient and electronic music. From Barcelona to Paris, the Swiss duo OY, based in Berlin, is scheduled all over Europe, in clubs and festivals (Eurockéennes, Eurosonic, Transmusicales, etc.). At the intersection of South American ethno, pop music and electro, Kurup is known for his sound experiments, between relaxed or "burning" titles, said to be able to put the dance floor in a trance. Berlin-based electro music producer EXZ fuses electronic beats with psychedelic influences. Besides music, EXZ also presents audiovisual pieces, as for example in Berlin, where he used the spatial sound technology of Monom and visuals created through artificial intelligence.
Without Boundaries featuring Maria Chiara Argirò, Katy de Jesus and Fais Le Beau will take the stage on Saturday 22 July 2023 at 21:00.Tickets for this concert cost €22, €9 (reduced) or €1.50 with a Kulturpass.
A pianist since the age of nine, UK-based Maria Chiara Argirò has lent her talents to indie band These New Puritans, the lush jazz troupe Kinkajous and, more recently, collaborations with Jamie Leeming and the duo Moonfish. Katy De Jesus blends her Lusitano heritage and her Luxembourg upbringing with the invigorating inspiration of Berlin. She focuses on "throbbing" and "hypnotic" rhythms, embellished with trippy samples and some classic rave music. Diego Cozzi, aka Fais Le Beau, is a Luxembourg-born, Brussels-based DJ who has been travelling around Europe playing queer parties for the past ten years. His music is influenced by 1990s house, trance and early 2000s proggy sounds (pyschadelic music with progressive tone changes).
