The Pilotwings, NEDDA SOU, Sensu, Ina, Chausi, Abraham Ape

Second edition of Club Amaro, our bittersweet exploration of house and disco and their modern incantations, and beyond. Same venue, but this time time in late spring, so if the weather allows, we take the party outside to the beautiful terrace of our venue next to Lake Eupen. Here’s to hoping the weather gods will shine on us. If they don’t, we’ll just take the party inside. Check out our beautiful lineup and come dance with us end of June.
 
Contort yourself!
 


 
THE PILOTWINGS (BROTHERS FROM DIFFERENT MOTHERS, MACADAM MAMBO – FR)
 
Guillaume Lespinasse and Louis De La Gorce are The Pilotwings, an iconoclastic dancefloor-oriented duo from Lyon, France, that mixes up synth-pop, Balearic, and soft trance influences. Their sound is fresh, psychedelic, and unique, and they have released their work on Brothers From Different Mothers and Macadam Mambo. They also run a show on LYL Radio, showcasing their ever-broadening range of influences. The Pilotwings live is an experience unlike any other. Expect an incredibly diverse and oftentimes excruciatingly beautiful and encompassing amalgam of dancefloor bombs both slow and fast.
 

 
 
NEDDA SOU (The Narrative – NL)
 
Hailing from Morocco, The Hague-based interdisciplinary maker, producer, choreographer, and DJ Nedda Sou is looking for a myth that might make a comeback: a strictly no-phones dance floor, home to a mash-up of social circles intent on sharing their energy through dance. As a dancer and choreographer, she made her mark worldwide, leaving an indelible mark on the dance community and inspiring aspiring dancers globally. She has performed at festivals and clubs like Paradiso, De School, Marktkantine, DJOON, Selectors, DTRH, DGTL, Dekmantel, etc, along with residencies at Worldwide FM and RadioRadio.
 

 
 
SENSU (YOUTH, MEAKUSMA – BE)
 
Belgian DJ and producer Sensu is based in Luxembourg and has been DJing for over 25 years, cherishing an eclectic and experimental touch to things. His music has been published by labels such as Youth, Meandyou, and Meakusma. Aside from his interest in avantgarde and experimental music, he has been a collector of disco, italo, and outer disco records for years.
 

 
 
INA (STUDIO NÉAU – BE)
 
Ina runs a show on Eupen community radio Studio Néau where she plays the tracks that make her move, a diverse and eclectic amalgam of hip hop, house, footwork, disco, funk, jazz, raga, soul, and much much more.
 

 
 
CHAUSI (STUDIO NÉAU – BE)
 
Chausi is a Belgian DJ and producer based in São Paulo whose sets dwell in transcendental electronic reveries from days past and from now. He runs the ritual Tapes show on Eupen community radio Studio Néau where he delves into house, boogie, italo, and balearic sounds.
 

 
 
ABRAHAM APE (STUDIO NÉAU – BE)
 
Abraham Ape collects funk, house, soul, boogie and disco. He runs a show on Studio Néau.

arkoada x meakusma


Back at Arkaoda in Berlin on November 26th. Live sets by Dip Friso, Ectoplasm Girls, Jake Muir and Guy Lee. DJ action by Sensu and the Meakusma Soundsystem.
 
From Glasgow, Dip Friso, founder of the Real Landscape label Murray Collier, cuts up dub, hiphop and vibes of introspection and bewilderment. His music is incredibly rich in ideas and influences, unafraid to be bold, outspoken, deeply and substantially absurdist and pointillistic and referential. Flux and contemplative stasis in one, Dip Friso makes good on musical promises unheard and unchartered. Ectoplasm Girls are Nadine and Tanya Byrne from Sweden. They produce some of the most appealing and direct noise and experimental music around, managing an almost accessible and immediate stance on music supposedly difficult and outlandish. Jake Muir is a sound artist and field recordist originally from Los Angeles who focuses on found sounds, whether vinyl loops, radio snippets or environmental recordings. Entranced by the understated Illbient genre, Muir’s music delves into cavernous options hitherto unexplored. Guy Lee is Guy Gormley, whose solo and collaborative work under the RAP, Special Occasion and Never guises defines the musical sphere of his Jolly Discs record label. Using field recordings, ambient sketches and beats, Gormley infuses club music with a provocative and evermore idiosyncratic stance.
 
DJ action before, in-between and after by Sensu and the Meakusma Soundsystem.

arkoada x meakusma

This coming weekend, in Berlin, don’t miss out on Meakusma x Arkaoda.
 
From November 12th till 14th, together with the great Arkaoda club in Berlin, we have set up a genuine three-nighter, featuring live performances and DJ-sets by Julia Reidy, Spivak, Thomas Bush, Laila Sakini, Bassae, Pretty Sneaky, Arthur, Gazza, Malvern Brume, TIBLSC, ML, Edition D’Art, 2 Morph, Sensu, Fog Puma, Iris, Yeahlena, Ugne Uma and Meakusma DJs. Two years ago, Arkaoda invited us to do a Meakusma night, we are thrilled to now go back.
 
From Julia Reidy’s music for processed and acoustic instruments, conjuring up non-traditional song forms which combine unstable harmonic territories, rhythmic elasticity and abstract narrative over-stretched, episodic forms, to Spivak, whose work is a play on the nuances and poetics of pop, her live performances jumping from intimate sonic liturgies to bursts of energetic and often deconstructed 90s inspired techno, to Thomas Bush who produces impressionist and experimental work full of distanced reflection and heartfelt alienation, to Laila Sakini’s work full of emotional breadth and ennui using a modest palette of piano, electronics and voice, to Pretty Sneaky who fuses dub basslines and dub aesthetics with free jazz-dynamics and who recently released on EP on Meakusma, to Malvern Brume whose experimental sound pieces move in an idiom all his own, to TIBSLC’s hazily ambiguous yet meticulously detailed sounds, hypersensitive to fleeting midnight moods, and many more. The full three days at Arkaoda will showcase some of the very unique talents at work in contemporary and electronic music.
