**********[French and German versions below]***********

[EN]

For years the Centre Francais de Berlin is involved in organizing a free and loud event to celebrate summer with music together with the city of Berlin. As a german-french cultural center we feel very connected to the famous Fête de la musique.

This year 2020 means the Fête’s 25 years anniversary in Berlin and we won’t miss the occasion to celebrate it with you !

The Corona crisis made our initial plans, being the main host of the Opening Ceremony, more complicated but we managed to find a way to still celebrate with you!

And we are not alone ! Three bands are going to give us live concerts from our rooftop next to the beehives. We gonna share it via Live Stream with you to make the late afternoon even hotter.

--->6:00pm-7:00pm :The junk-E-cat will open the party

junk-E-cat blends acoustic and electronic elements, seamlessly combining a selection of reed instruments with Maschine finger drumming, live looping and horn arrangements. He typically performs on top of his specially equipped fire truck at festivals and open-airs, and creates beats on top of buildings and abandoned sites around the world. While disguised in a mask and onesie, he allows the audience to witness his highly technical improvisations via video feed.

--->7:10pm-8:10pm : The local electro-blues band AFAR will be the next to share their music with us

live. analog. no laptop.

Consisting of a collaboration between two musicians and one visual artist, AFAR seeks to bridge the distance between the natural and the industrial, exploring the paradox between organic and electronic.

--->8:20pm-9:20pm : The Acado duo will end our event with techno

Acado are Daniel Breyer and Felix Reiter from Berlin. Since their first encounter at a party at the Kottbusser Tor, their almost magical and definitely successful symbiosis has spawned some stunning sets and highly spirited productions.

After Acado had established their name in Berlin’s Clubs, such as Sisyphos, Ritter Butzke, Mensch Meier, or About Blank, their scope has now widened - they play in Vienna, Amsterdam, Istanbul, Prague, or Israel. Their unique sound, which ranges from deep melodic tech house to techno, has notched up major success throughout the global scene and people praise them for their groovy bass and their playful, analog soundscape. But Acado also stand for a decelerated sound that creates unforgettable moments, be it in extended afterhour sessions or at festivals. They really committed themselves to “schneckno“.

Das Jahr 2020 bedeutet 25 Jahre Jubiläum des Festes in Berlin und das wollen wir unbedingt mit euch feiern!

Die Coronakrise hat unseren ursprünglichen Plan Veranstaltungsort der Auftaktzeremonie des 25. Jubiläums leider etwas komplizierter gemacht aber wir haben das Problem gemeistert und eine neue Formel gewählt, um trotz allen neuen Gegebenheiten dabei mit euch zu feiern.

Da stehen wir nicht allein. Drei Bands werden neben den Bienenstöcken auf unserem Dach live auftreten und uns allen durch eine Livestreaming-Übertragung mit ihrer Musik den Spätnachmittag noch heisser machen!!

---> 18 Uhr - 19 Uhr : Als Eröffner werden wir den Künstler The junk-E-cat empfangen

junk-E-cat blends acoustic and electronic elements, seamlessly combining a selection of reed instruments with Maschine finger drumming, live looping and horn arrangements. He typically performs on top of his specially equipped fire truck at festivals and open-airs, and creates beats on top of buildings and abandoned sites around the world. While disguised in a mask and onesie, he allows the audience to witness his highly technical improvisations via video feed.

---> 19 Uhr 10 - 20 Uhr 10 : Dann folgt das Weddinger Duo AFAR

---> 20 Uhr 20 - 21 Uhr 20 : Zum Schluss vibrieren wir noch einmal mit dem Duo Acado
