Cruel Thursday V

𝘊𝘳𝘶𝘦𝘭 𝘛𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘥𝘢𝘺 returns for its fifth edition at Bar Neun, continuing our bimonthly gathering of friends, artists, and sounds moving freely between experimentation and the dancefloor.

For this chapter, we are excited to host a lineup that brings together singular voices from contemporary electronic music, spanning live performance, abstraction, club mutations and exploratory listening.

Grischa Lichtenberger LIVE
[Raster]
Experimental Electronics / Electroacoustic
A key figure within Germany's experimental electronic landscape, Grischa Lichtenberger has spent the last two decades developing a highly personal sonic language that challenges conventional notions of rhythm, structure and composition. His work unfolds through fragmented textures, intricate digital processing and unexpected emotional depth, creating immersive environments where abstraction and physicality coexist.

OX LIVE
[Last Riot]
Experimental Ambient / Glitch
OX is the new project by The Noisemaker, focused on reduced tempos, spatial structures and finely detailed electronic sound. Through intricate rhythmic constructions and meticulous sound design, OX creates immersive sonic landscapes where distorted drums, subtle movement and glitch-laden textures unfold with patience and precision.

Florian Kupfer DJ
[Urban Legend Rec.]
Electro / Leftfield
Known for his deeply personal approach to electronic music, Florian Kupfer moves effortlessly between raw house, stripped-down techno and melancholic atmospheres. His productions and DJ sets are marked by emotional intensity and a distinctive sense of narrative, balancing dancefloor functionality with introspection and vulnerability.

Mike Tansella
[Sons of Traders | Gravitational Waves]
Ambient / No-Wave
Berlin-based DJ and long-time supporter of adventurous sound, Mike Tansella navigates an eclectic selection of experimental ambient, electronic noise and no-wave territories. His sets connect disparate sonic worlds through curiosity rather than genre boundaries, embracing both tension and atmosphere in equal measure.
