Gonggong 225088 at Kühlspot, Berlin

Next week (Tuesday, November 19, 2024), at 8:30pm (doors: 8pm): Dream a little noisy, sweetly disquieting dream with Gonggong 225088 as Han-earl Park (guitar), Yorgos Dimitriadis (percussion and electronics) and Camila Nebbia (saxophone) perform at Kühlspot Social Club (Lehderstraße 74–79, 13086 Berlin).

Blue-green iridescence
(Crunch and more scatter)
A vacuum of warning

Here be dragons.

It’s been a while since Gonggong played in the trio’s hometown, and it’s been longer since we’ve had an opportunity to really stretch out (we’ll be playing two complete sets at Kühlspot). It’s always a joy to be performing with Camila and Yorgos, and I am super excited to see where the music takes us (and where we take the music). One of the many things I love about this group is how everyone is inviting the others to occupy spaces by actively creating constantly shifting gaps and cracks in the arrangement and moment-by-moment composition.

Gonggong 225088 entführt die Zuhörerschaft in eine Traumwelt voller Gegensätze: krachend-subtil, irritierend-melodisch, wundervoll dissonant.

Das international besetzte Trio… changiert mühelos zwischen Kulturen, mechanischen Effekten und tonalen Wechselwirkungen in einem beständig vorantreibenden Prozess. [Read the rest…]
