Jd J [GE/DE], Diamin [CHL/DE], Khidja & New Disorder 18+

On Friday, November 27, different strains of musical curiosities take over the club, from leftfield explorations and unruly rhythms to darker, more seductive shadows. In the Berlin Room, Jd J, Diamin and Khidja bring their own approaches to digging, disobedience and a taste of the Mutant Radio airwaves. Meanwhile, New Disorder take over the Front Room, keeping things deliciously dark and decidedly danceable.

BERLIN ROOM

JD J [GE/DE]

Raised between Tbilisi and the Georgian countryside, Jaba Ujmajuridze has found inspiration in the unexpected harmonies of Gurian polyphony. His collage-like sets weave forgotten local gems, industrial murk, wonky electro, free-jazz and unreleased music from friends into wonderfully unpredictable combinations. His Out Of Whack show on Mutant Radio and his Vodkast roots have made him a quiet force in Georgian experimental music. Expect maximalism, and lots of room to move.

DIAMIN [CHL/DE]

Diamin trades in unrealized dreams trapped in vinyl, bringing together records that haven't quite had their moment yet. From Latin American basements to Europe's warehouses, her selections cross queer-coded new wave, ambitious IDM, encyclopedic psychedelia and deep, unforgiving acid. Curious by nature and attentive to the chemistry between sounds and dancers, she builds spaces where friction turns into movement. A Mutant Radio resident, she also co-directs the vinyl label Tecnologías Elementales and collaborates with queer collectives across the globe.

KHIDJA

The Bucharest-born duo, now based between Berlin and beyond, have spent years cultivating a sound that many love to hear, over and over. Drawing from obscure breakbeat, psychedelic electronics, house, industrial influences and sometimes melodic detours, Khidja make connections between musical worlds that don't always meet on paper. Their releases on Hivern Discs, DFA and Malka Tuti offer glimpses into their restless approach, where hypnotic grooves and stranger impulses are always welcome at the same table.

FRONT ROOM

NEW DISORDER

Raul Tomi Rus and Iarina Șleam have held up Cluj-Napoca's underground for many years. New Disorder is their shared language: post-punk, new wave, darkwave, synthpop, EBM. Groovy yet dark, sensuous and laced with a little romantic gloom, they play music for dim lights and dressed-up shadows.
