A dense and immersive sonic descent through violence and transformation. In eight fractured compositions, Fujimine sculpts a ritual space for identity to collapse and reassemble, haunted by ambient dread, metallic dissonance, and the ghosts of industrial rhythm.

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.

Helang is part of a new wave of electronic artists who balance vulnerability with power, drawing on her cross-cultural upbringing between America and China to create music that is both fiercely independent and emotionally charged. A classically trained pianist turned DJ, producer, and label founder, she has carved out her own lane in a scene that often resists definition.

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.
