CTM = Cosmic Trip To Mutek

Likewise to CLUB TRANSMEDIALE, our longstanding partner, the MUTEK festival in Montrèal, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. A fact that already had inspirered us to jointly organize the PASS THE FLAME event at Berghain's Panorma Bar during CTM.09. Now, CLUB TRANSMEDIALE in return has been invited by MUTEK to collaborate on the festival's opening night at SAT. Following our recent crush on psychotronic synth music, the night begins with the uplifting minimal neo-psychedelics of Montreal’s audio-visual duo Organ Mood, before giving way to the solo project of the eccentric Romain Turzi. His Turzi Electronic Experience fuses krautrock and commune psychedelics while surrounded by a cavalry of vintage synthesizers that brings to mind the heyday of Jean-Michel Jarre. Afterwards it is time for the psychedlic cosmic horror kraut disco of Parisians Zombie Zombie, who arrive for in Montreal for a North American debut. The French duo rev up their otherworldly fusion of psychedelic rock and spektral electronics that raises an army of very welcomed ghosts: Can, Silver Apples, Goblin, Suicide, John Carpenter and others. The night wraps up with the D.I.R.T.Y. space disco of Pilooski, who will pick-up the synthetic propulsions of his colleguess and embed them with the irresistibly carnal handclaps that drive his much sought-after disco re-edits.
