"Ambientale" Compiled by Charles Bals, on Bureau B

Friday February 7, 2025 - 5PM

Collector, seeker and storyteller Charles Bals brings his curatorial finesse to Hamburg's Bureau B with 'Ambientale', a journey into otherworldly sounds from the years 1983 - 2000. Drifting effortlessly between digital exoticism, mellow fusion, new age groove and library electronics, the pieces range from largely obscure to utterly un-google-able, and coalesce into a stunning soundtrack to tranquil seas, desert sand and starlit skies. Cinematic & enigmatic, 'Ambientale' is a stranger you've only just met but can't stop thinking about.

"Teenager of The Year" by Frank Black, reedition on 4AD records

Described as 'the best album the Pixies never made', Frank Black's Teenager of The Year is being re-released on gold vinyl to mark its 30th anniversary. Pitchfork named it one of the 100 best albums of the '90s. The album is also included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, while The Quietus said in 2014: "'Teenager Of The Year' feels like a lost Pixies album in the same way that 'Ram' feels like a lost Beatles album. It's colossal, bursting with innovation."

Kompromat PLДYING / PRДYING on Warrior records

KOMPROMAT is the alliance of Vitalic and Rebeka Warrior (Sexy Sushi, Mansfield.TYA). Their first album Traum und Existenz, released in 2019 on Clivage Music (Vitalic's label), laid the foundations for a dark and hard-hitting universe. In January 2025, they returned with PLДYING / PRДYING on Warriorecords, a label founded by Rebeka Warrior. This new album explores themes such as prayer (pagan or not), funeral rites, passages between different worlds, but also the pleasures of the flesh, dance, and ecstasy - like a divine invocation through music.
