Silent Disco - fraukatah / Gerda / Cherrie (QENEM) // DJ espionaje

On the opening evening of the festival and every Friday and Saturday we invite you to dance! The disused Prinzenstraße will then turn into the dancefloor for our silent discos, where the music comes not from loudspeakers but from headphones. Silently we move through the night – and look awesomely good while we’re doing it! Deaf visitors to the party have the opportunity to borrow vibration belts – these allow bass notes to flow directly into the body in the form of vibrations, blurring boundaries so that everyone can dance to the beats of our DJs together.

This Silent Disco is hosted together with QENEM who put fraukatah, Gerda and Cherrie behind the turntables.

QENEM stands for queerfeminist empowering network for electronic music. In and around Hannover they create this inspiring project with many DJs and producers. They want to explicitly address FLINTA * people: women, lesbian, intersex, non-binary, trans, and agender people - together they want to create a space for empowerment and a space for a protected exchange about topics that move them in the electronic music scene. They also advocate for more diversity on the decks, a safe partying experience for all people involved, and an aware partying culture.

QENEM

Still fresh on the decks and in search of a varied sound, fraukatah from Hannover moves in her sets between sonorous progressive house and pounding dark minimal techno. Sometimes hypnotic, sometimes playful, most important is a bassline that tempts you to dance.

Gerda doesn't let genre boundaries stop her and likes to fire breakbeat, techno, minimal and jazzy house sounds around! Gerda has been living in Magdeburg for the last five years and has really shaken up the scene. There she threw hot concerts and parties at dreamy off-locations with her live synth sound collective "Schall & Rauschen" and regularly gave FLINTA* DJ workshops.

Cherrie comes from Hanover. She never loses in a star battle - not even a blink of an eye. Cherrie's music: DubTechno; direct, booming, intense. If you're ready, get involved in a captivating contest of bass and reverb and experience how this niche genre conquers the club  in the periphery, takes care of the ears and the bodies, how it moves you and doesn't let go.
