// Date: 13. July 2012 // Venue: Le Lieu Unique, Nantes // Time: 19:00 // Entrance free // Facebook Event   Program: NOVO LINE HEATSICK BANKIRAI & JEROME aka O'TANNENBAUM DJS DJ SQUEAKY F.   CTM Festival has been invited to curate three nights within Au milieu du monde - A festival of festivals, that takes place between June 15 - August 19, 2012 at Le Lieu Unique in Nantes.   Day two presents some of Berlin's finest protagonists of non-standard dance underground. With:   Novo Line – Formerly active as guitarist for Baltimore math rock band OXES, Nat Fowler has recently branched out onto a solo path under the Novo Line moniker. Now a Berlin resident and inspired by the city’s ubiquitous digital slot machines (that appear under the Novoline or Novomatic brand), Fowler misuses a 23 year-old software program running on one megabyte of RAM on an Atari ST personal computer as a live instrument in order to generate random MIDI signals based on a set of changing parameters that trigger hardware synthesizers from the same era. Fowler adds a layer of live performance to his explorations of junkyard process music; using live mixing, he intensifies each new piece as it develops and rises from the silicone ether, and channels the music’s innumerable possible pathways in real time so that it sails until it resolves, never again to be recreated… unless caught on tape!  – densely complex and hollowly simple! › soundcloud.com/novoline   Heatsick uses various instruments including voice, keyboard and percussion to create saturated washes of tone, floating and disintegrating entropic loops, while also using deliberately broken continuity as a playful, live conceptual gesture. The project is focused on repetition as a means of creating abstraction, improvising with organic variations of a theme, yet embracing the artificial to facilitate a psychedelic mindshift. The music references a palette of sources from Musique Concrete and Psychedelia, through to the early Chicago House mix tapes, creating a unique compelling sound. He releases on PAN and CockTail d'Amore. › perpendicularrain.blogspot.com  › soundcloud.com/cocktail-damore/sets/heatsick-dream-tennis/   Bankirai & Jerome aka The O Tannenbaum DJ's have a long joint history of spinning records together in all kind of ways.

For the night at Lieu Unique they will sweep the floor with a mix of UK Bass, Garage, Juke, Acid, Ghetto Tech and Detroit Techno. The O Tannenbaum DJ'S are the founders of Ole-Records and the art venue O Tannenbaum (Berlin). › o-tannenbaum-berlin.de   DJ Squeaky F., resident dj at the Disko Sympatiko in Berlin nights plays everything from voodoo funk to psych pop,  from New Wave to old Wavs. In short: Forward in all directions!     Au milieu du monde - A festival of festivals As part of Le Voyage à Nantes, the city of dukes is rolling out the red carpet for new visitors from both near and far. Firmly anchored at the heart of the Continental hemisphere, le lieu unique offers the public an opportunity to travel without moving: the best festivals from France and across Europe have been invited to grace our venues, one after the other, every weekend. And so, if we believe the Swiss Romande legend that says the centre of the world is in the Vaud canton (between the Rhine and Rhone rivers), then Nantes is ready to claim its title and rise to the challenge for 10 straight weeks—that’s no fewer than 30 nights—by bringing locals, tourists, travellers, and innocent bystanders alike the very best the world has to offer right here, right now: thanks to guests arriving from Berlin, Brighton, Fribourg, Hyères, Reims, Rotterdam, and more...
