Haus Der Kulturen Der Welt's summer festival series is back! Kicking off on June 27th with the legendary dub poet Linton Kwesi Johnson, Sonic Pluriverse festival will run until August 2 and will "explore sound system culture as a global phenomenon".
The weekly event programming takes in live performances on the HKW terrace, as well as lectures, a film installation and DJ sets. Program highlights include Ivorian bass guitarist Manou Gallo, Mohini Dey, Ti Moris, The Congos, Perera Elsewhere, Sarah Farina's "rainbow bass" music, our very own Shiru and much more. In the words of the curators: "From reggae’s deep pulsations to dubstep’s thunderous drops, the programme weaves together experiences, dialogues, and sonic practices that trace international connections." We will be giving away a pair of tickets via Moe's Breakfast Show, so tune in from 10AM on his dates and get ready to answer in the chat room. More information on the Sonic Pluriverse programming and tickets is available here.
