The Centrifuge presents “Acid Futures”
Saturday 29th May @ Tacheles, Oranienburgerstrasse, Berlin-Mitte.
22:00Uhr // 5 Euro
Global Goon (Rephlex, Planet Mu, WeMe, Balkan Vinyl)
NHK bs aka Kouhei Matsunaga (Raster-Noton, Important Records)

The Centrifuge is back in Berlin with a mammoth lineup to celebrate the summer and a huge dose of acid landing in the city. This is to celebrate our “Acid Futures” a double-volume acid spectacular that is landing in June. First copies available on the night, come down early and we might just be giving a present or two away too!
And so to our guests…we are mighty pleased to welcome braindance legend GLOBAL GOON to the fold. Having been an core part of the Rephlex phenomenon in the 90s, he has recently reinvented himself (in conjunction with his SYNTHEME recording alias) as the master of raunchy, slick acid primed for the dancefloor and raw disco-fuelled booty shaking energy.
NHK BS is from even further afield – Osaka-based Kouhei Matsunaga is touring Europe following the release of 4 seminal LPs on Important Records, including collaborations with Mika Vainio (Pan Sonic) and Sean Booth (Autechre). With more from his NHK project due on Raster-Noton soon, Kouhei is on a roll.
Also live for the first time in Berlin: CHEVRON is the English Planet Mu, Wrong Music and Ad Noiseam veteran, 303 tweaker and all-round dancefloor daddy. HERV jets in from Dublin to show us how the Irish like their rave with his recent releases on Cock Rock Disco and The Centrifuge warranting preparation for a rinseout of epic proportions. TECHDIFF joins us for an all-out precision sonic demolition!
The Centrifuge’s residents are in effect too – Nexus makes his debut as EUTECHNIK and MISSAW is on hand to spin some merry ditties for your listening enjoyment.

Dear friends,
we are really glad to announce, that despite the recent events around WMF’s closing last week, our party will take place on the 26th of March. And we got even better news for you! We extended the line-up, so that you can expect even more bass from the grand seignior of post-rave Cylob and Berlin’s own high-priest of bass Ziggy! We moved the event to the „Goldener Saal“ (inside Tacheles) and thanks to the help of BlackBoxMusic we will have a pretty sweet PA to stimulate your ears. Expect a night full of braindance, squarestep, ghettodub and jungletech!
Now it’s your turn: Show up and dance! We are looking forward to it.
Cheers,
Bass Contortion & The Centrifuge
-INFO-
We are proud to present you the first german show of Wisp, Aphex Twin’s favourite artist and Rephlex Records new poster child! His profile exploded last year after his two highly-anticipated albums Rephlex Records emerged, revealing new electro/techno influences to his sound that is tweaked to move feet, tickle minds and break hearts on the dancefloor. Come and see what the fuss is about!
Making music since 1993, most of Cylob’s records can be called timeless masterpieces. He released on legendary labels, collaborated with legendary artists and he is, without hesitation, a legend himself. Expect nothing less from his sets.
With them on stage will be Hecq, Berlin’s bass boy-wonder. His musical oeuvre makes him one of Germany’s leading electronic artists, with albums discovering the fields of post-rave electronica to contemporary classical music. His upcoming EP on Ad Noiseam will set new standards in what we know today as Dubstep.
Furthermore the united force of the Contortion and The Centrifuge crew will entertain you throughout the night, too. Puzzle is our man from Sweden, bringing psychedelic hip-hop glitch-beats to the masses, Ziggy is as jiggy as usual and will contort your synapses with his bass extravaganza, Jade Monkey will show you that dubstep is an anagram for „freak-out“ and Missaw will bring the funk in bottles and pour in everyone who is ready to boogie down.
Hi everyone, we’re back, fully rested-ish after the new year break, and to start us off in 2010 we have a guest mix from braindance legend CYLOB.
Cylob needs no introduction really, but we’ll give him one anyway since this is a real treat we’ve got here. Cylob is one Chris Jeffs, a master of the quirky end of the braindance sound that Rephlex brought to the world in the 90s. He has more recently released on Breakin Records and his own imprint Cylob Industries. Today’s Cylob is a music programming fiend, creating sequencers, synths, DJ tools and all sorts of exotic things in the Supercollider software framework.
English by heritage but now resident in the creative Mecca that is Berlin, we’re very proud to bring you an exclusive airing of the amazing set he played at our first party in the city in November (celebrating the release of Nexus’ Silicone Poplars LP). DO NOT MISS THIS!
In addition, there’s new music from Tim Exile, Funckarma, Volitune, IJO, Terrificolor, Consequence, Roy of the Ravers, Sigha and many more. We’re also announcing the lineup for our 3rd Birthday Rave on the 26th February in Berlin and giving away copies of Oxynucid’s new EP.
Tune in TONIGHT (Thursday) 10pm GMT, www.Brap.FM. See you in the chatroom. y’all.
UPDATE:: Stream / download the show from our Radio Show Page.
Hats off to everyone who joined us for the shows at Darkroom and Tacheles and made them such good nights, photo, video and audio coming soon.
