NAROD NIKI, the only laptop supergroup in the world!

Paralleling Berlin´s first 'Popkomm' club transmediale, Montréal's MUTEK
Festival and the Volksbuehne theatre will present the Europe-premiere of the
electronic all-star band NAROD NIKI. Also appearing for the first time in
Berlin the two newcomers to Montréals flourishing micro-house scene The EGG
and The Mole, who swept the awards of this year´s MUTEK Festival. Berlin´s
most outstanding visual-collectives Transforma and Pfadfinderei will round
out the show with a live-video environment. In the 'Roter Salon' MUTEK
organizer Alain Mongeau and Philip Sherburne, known by his writings for The
Wire and XLR8R magazine, will caress the decks.

NAROD NIKI is a collaboration project founded by Ricardo Villalobos that was
presented for the first time at last year´s MUTEK Festival. The idea of the
project is to bring together a number of techno masterminds to do a live
jam, hiding their identities behind a collective alias to keep the attention
dedicated to their music. RITCHIE HAWTIN, DIMBIMAN, MONOLAKE, AKUFEN, DANDY
JACK, DANIELL BELL, CABANNE and LUCIANO got together in Montréal,
demonstrating that realtime-improvisation and party-factor don’t necessarily
exclude one another. No surprise - as all names involved stand for
first-class innovative dance music and feel well at home in all parts of the
world with their message.

The event is a cooperation with the Volksbuehne theatre and part of the
fifth and last of its 'Club Neustadt' series. Transforma and Pfadfinderei
together will create a video-environment inside the stunning 'Club Neustad'
stage-set, designed by Bert Neumann, which is a wholly functional imitation
of a city inside the theatre’s building.
