    T r a n s c e n d i n g P a i n : A Cathartic Encounter“ | 2023
    by MILENA JUNGE, TOM GRAND and THOMAS ROHE

    Im Kopf ist das Gefängnis der Gefühle. Die Gefühle sind aus dem Körper gewandert, gefangen im Kopf stauen sie sich dort und schmerzen.“
    (Therapiebild von Herrn P. aus  Bangladesh, Praktische Schmerzmedizin. Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg.)

    Im Rahmen meiner Therapie musste ich mich intensiv mit dem Thema Schmerz auseinandersetzen. Was ist Schmerz eigentlich? Wie wichtig ist Schmerz?
    Letztendlich ist Schmerz eines der wichtigsten Gefühle und Impulse, die unsere Psyche und Physis uns senden. Schmerz als positiver Reiz?
    Die Performance „TRANSCENDING PAIN: A CATHARTIC ENCOUNTER” ist eine persönliche und zugleich universelle Auseinandersetzung mit dem Schmerz. Als jemand, der sich im Rahmen einer intensiven Therapie mit diesem Gefühl tiefgründig beschäftigt hat, versuche ich, meine eigenen Entdeckungen und Herausforderungen mit dem Publikum zu teilen.
    Schmerz, oft missverstanden und vermieden, ist nicht nur ein Signal unseres Körpers, sondern auch ein Spiegel unserer Psyche. Durch meine therapeutische Reise habe ich gelernt, dass sich hinter dem Schmerz oft der weg der Erkenntnis und ein erster Impuls zum Neuanfang offenbart.“
    Mit „Transcending Pain: A Cathartic Encounter“ will die Performance zum Nachdenken und zur Diskussion über den Schmerz, seine universelle Natur und das Potenzial für Heilung und Wachstum anregen, das aus der Konfrontation mit ihm und dem Austausch darüber entstehen kann. (Die Performance zielt außerdem darauf ab, schmerzhafte Erfahrungen und Leiden sichtbar und erkenntlich zu machen. Sie sind ganz natürlich Teil der menschlichen Erfahrung und müssen für eine weitere Erfahrung sichtbar gemacht und normalisiert werden). Die immersive Erfahrung lädt die Zuschauer dazu ein, sich mit ihrem eigenen Schmerz auseinanderzusetzen, sich in andere einzufühlen und die transformative Kraft der Katharsis zu erkunden.“

    TOM GRAND: “Born in 1986 in Neuwied, raised in a very conservative catholic boarding school in Germany, I'm on a path that is anything but straightforward. It's a road, littered with curves, edges, and potholes. Before fully dedicating myself to art, I oscillated between jobs as care worker, social worker, make-up artist, stylist, retailer and zookeeper. People and their stories—these were both my driving force and my nemesis.
    But there was more. I moved to Berlin - the city of excesses. I plunged into the darkness, lost myself in the music, the energy, the chaos. It was wild, it was alive, it was real. Nights blended together and the city became a part of me. Also Hamburg. St. Pauli. As a punk on the streets and my apartment on the transvestite strip. Life was raw, unfiltered. The colors, sounds, people—they shaped me, helped me grow, changed my perspective. And they are still a part of me. These cities, their energy, they live in my work. They are part of my inspiration and my sanctuary.
    Self-taught. I educated myself in photography, post-production and videography. My works in fashion, beauty and nude photography caught attention. A beginning. But it wasn't entirely fulfilling. It was like sex without climax. Nice, but ultimately frustrating. 2017. The start of a new chapter. I moved to Zurich, where I worked as a make-up artist for YSL.
    2019. The nightmare. My apartment burned down.I had to start from scratch.
    2021. The slap in the face. The diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder. An explanation of my lifelong feeling of difference. Each of these moments was like a quake that shook my foundation.
    All this crap? Yes, it influenced me, shaped me, challenged me, forced me on my artistic path. It nourished my work.
    The chaos became fuel, the suffering became color, the frustration became texture. I took what life gave me and used it as inspiration. It is raw, it is real, and it is my way of communicating with the world.
    For me art is not just a means of communication, but a necessity for survival. Art became my therapy, my language, my path in life. It is more than a job; it's a journey to myself, a way to explore the world. My works aim to be a window to my experiences and my struggles. I want to reach people, touch them, make them think, offer a journey, a new perspective. Shaped by a background as diverse as life itself. Wild, unconventional, real.

    BadassBassBombardement

    Dj VELA

    Vibration pulsiert durchs Innere, Bass synchronisiert den Herzrhythmus, bewegt jeden einzelnen Muskel ... und in dieser Bewegung liegt Freiheit: sich vollkommen im allumgebenden Sound fallen und von ihm mitreißen zu lassen, der mit jedem Break die Leidenschaft der DJ auf die Tanzfläche transportiert. Wenn Sound in Worte gefasst werden kann, dann äußern sich so die Kraft und Stärke einer Klangsprache, deren Tenor ein packendes „BassBombardement“ ist: Denn kaum eine DJ hat die Bässe von den Turntables aus so in der Hand wie Vela!

    Die Berliner DJ und Künstlerin ist international erfahren, tourte weltweit und legte bei verschiedenen Festivals auf, wie beispielsweise beim Fusion Festival, bei der Berliner Love Parade, dem Glade Festival (UK) oder dem Smile Rave-Festival (Texas, USA). Dass sie Erfahrung und ein Feingefühl für die Musik- und Clubszene miteinander verknüpft, zeigte Vela bereits als Resident-DJ in legendären Berliner Clubs wie Maria – von der Eröffnung bis zur Schließung –, rund fünf Jahre im Tresor und setzt es an verschiedenen Hotspots der Underground- und Clubkultur fort: seit 1999 im Eschschloraque, mit einer neuen Partyreihe im ://about blank oder regelmäßigen DJ-Sets im Solar Berlin.

    Ihr „BadAssBassBombardement“ ist der Begriff für eine packende Soundwelt, die sie selbst auf den Punkt bringt: „My music style changed through out the years from BreakBeat to Electro to House to TechFunk to Techno … But it was always, and still is, best described as I’m-going-to-kick-your-arse-onto-the-dance-floor-and-you-will-like-it-and-beg-for-more!!!“
    Man kann gar nicht anders, als sich von ihrer Power und ihrem Charme mitreißen zu lassen – „and of course we will beg for more!

    Dj Eric Prince

    Courtesy of the artist

    Eric Prince (S.U.R.E. New York )

    Eric expiereinced the beginning of the Hip-Hop movement first hand as he grew up in Harlem. In 1974 he started making pause mix tapes. He was soon able to save up enough money to buy his first turntables and mixer. He hooked up with a group of local teenagers who then started calling themselves The Fantastic Four. One of the many local crews that called themselves that. Their first residency was at an after hour space called Ja-Gazzy which they soon found out was owned by Harlem Gangster Nicky Barnes.
    “What I learned from those experiences was how to read and control crowds through music. I didn't really know who Nicky was until much later. We reported to his cousin who managed this place but I remembered there were 3 floors. Laundromat on the ground floor. Restaurant on the second and Club/ Bar on the third.”

    After a few years “The Fantastic Four” broke up and Eric started doing gigs on his own. Doing mostly Harlem underground spaces such as The Pit-Stop, This Bitter Earth, The Uptown Underground, and the Tradewinds. At the tender age of 17, he was one of the top DJ's in Harlem having residences in three different clubs.
    One of his close family members, Anthony Bee introduced him to Tim Washington. Eric and Tim began doing parties together. With Eric behind the turntables and Tim behind the mic they were known as the King and the Prince. They made many mixtapes one of which would eventually land in the hands of Bill Curtis of the Fatback Band. Bill liked Tims' voice and was well aware of the growing Rap scene. Bill decided to make a record using Tim and the Fatback Band. This song, “King Tim III (Personality Jock)” is considered by many to be the first rap single of the Hip Hop era since it was released more than 5 months before Sugarhill Gangs Rappers Delight.
    Eric continued doing residencies at popular and under ground clubs in Harlem. He became so well know, that he was asked to do studio work for some of the local record label owners such as Bobby Robinson (Enjoy Records), Paul Winley (Winley Records), and Oscar Richardson (PMP Records).

    During the 80's Eric did a lot of studio work for PMP records. “PMP had its own studio but for bigger projects I would go out to Power Play studios in Queens. This is where I met and worked with legendary Songwriter/Producer Patrick Adams. He showed me a lot of studio tricks. Some I would use on my own projects. One of them was how he made the Bass drum sound so booming on Run-D-MC's My Adidas”. Eric was also introduced to Stephen Washington, the leader from the Funk group Slave during this time.

    All of the things that "he thought" he knew about music changed with his first visit to the Paradise Garage on King Street in Greenwich Village. “I heard Larry Levan play and my whole mindset of what a DJ/Engineer was changed. The top 3 things that I learned from my Garage experience was:

    1. A DJ/Engineer is a pioneer.
    2. The great ones tread where it is un-comfortable for the pretenders.
    3. If you are only playing what is heard on the top 40 radio stations, you are a juke box, not a DJ.”

    During the 90's Eric taught and mentored other DJ's and kept producing local artists. During this time Eric was introduced to Bobby Davis Jr who was one of the founders of Spinners Unlimited Recording Enterprises (S.U.R.E.). Eric helped Bobby bring the Record Pool portion of S.U.R.E. To the World-Wide Web in 2005. “I kept telling Bobby that the internet is the next step. So, I got Bobby's permission and registered the name surecordpool.com in 1998. You know just to secure it because a lot of people were just snatching up names and selling them for huge sums of money. Bobby finally approached me to put together the website in 2005.”
    Sadly, in December 2010 Bobby E. Davis passed away leaving the future of S.U.R.E.up in the air. Eric stepped up to the plate with another senior member of the Record Pool to keep S.U.R.E. going until today, 40+ years from its inception.

    Currently, Eric has mixes available on most popular music platforms:

    Vinyl Stories

    Dj: Cellsius

    Courtesy of the Artist

    DJ Cellsius left Athens in the 90s, settled for some years in London before calling Berlin home in 2009.

    Three cities and their sounds, flavors and labyrinth like cult-tour left their mark on his journalism and photography while enlarging his collection of vinyl records that was destined to spin on the Made in Japan 1210s of Berlin’s night echosystem.

    Words, images and sounds got mixed up, stories needed a DJ to let them flow in 33 and 45 rounds per minute and on this Friday night he will bring in Eschschloraque a sample of his hypnotic mix of juicy funk, old school hip hop, jazzy beats, rare groove, world percussion, library music and much more.

    Let the vinyl tell their stories.''
