Road to Berlin Atonal 2025

Music | Spotlight
Berlin Atonal returns to Kraftwerk Berlin, Tresor, and OHM this August 2025 with a five-day program that transforms the city’s industrial core into an experimental laboratory for sound, image, and collective experience. This year marks the festival’s debut as part of the International Biennial Association, anchoring its position as a global platform for sonic and interdisciplinary avant-garde. It’s a return, but also a reinvention, driven by the same radical spirit that first pulsed through these concrete chambers in the early ’80s.

Intersection of Chaos / Inside the World of Lady Tazz

Music | Interview
Born in Montreal, raised in Dhaka, and shaped by Toronto’s underground, Lady Tazz has lived more lives than most artists ever dare to. Her presence is deliberate, and her sets are defined by speed, sensuality, and control. She founded Mind Medizin as a platform for artists who challenge the conventions of the electronic music industry, a space for sound that is stripped-back, forceful, and unconcerned with mainstream appeal. Lady Tazz approaches music with intent, and everything she builds is made to last.

Fragments of the Self / Francois X

Music | Interview
In a time where identity is often packaged, flattened, and made palatable for algorithmic feeds, François X resists easy definition. Born between Corsica and Benin, shaped by sounds that stretch from the vinyl stacks of Fania Records to the raw pulse of Parisian club nights, his music is neither fusion nor collage. It’s something more elemental, a process of remembering, returning, resisting.
