POOLcast

The POOL Berlin

The POOL Berlin is an open collective of Berliners active in the minimal and experimental techno scene in Berlin.

The group has its origin in private meetings at Dr.Nojoke´s kitchen, which were started in 2014 as a platform for like-minded Berliner producers, DJs, supporter, VJs, fans and for getting in touch with international artists, who were visiting Berlin - such as David Last, Ingemar Stalholm, Pachyderme, The Automatic Messages, Elysée, Attentat, Dugong, Yes Ma´am, Matt and Mark Thibideau, Dinelka et cetera.. //

PROJECTS //

POOLcast 098 - LumiaSylko
Jan 15 2024
POOLcast 098 - LumiaSylko
POOLcast 098 - Lumia Sylko Our first POOLcast in 2024 comes from Switzerland and, like our last edition, is a live modular synth recording. Lumia Sylko is essentially an audiovisual project that uses the technical means and media of today to offer a platform for creative development. Musically, there are almost no limits. Ambient, minimal, jazz, drone, electroacoustic and musique concrète are all components that find their way into Lumia Sylko's works. For POOLcast 098, Lumia Sylko has sat down at his modular system and provided us with a recording that wonderfully demonstrates what can be musically extracted from such systems. From hypnotic to groovy to dreamy, Lumia Sylko has created a thoroughly entertaining recording for POOLcast that we can recommend to everyone for the dark days. Happy New Year. Enjoy. https://soundcloud.com/thepoolberlin/poolcast-098-lumiasylko https://poolcast.bandcamp.com/track/poolcast-098-lumia-sylko https://www.mixcloud.com/ThePoolcasts/poolcast-098-lumia-sylko/ // Lumia Sylko https://www.lumiasylko.art/ https://www.instagram.com/lumia_sylko https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnHJLbCeLHJTAqkvMYppBYg // The POOL Berlin https://www.thepoolberlin.de/ https://facebook.com/thepoolberlin/ https://soundcloud.com/thepoolberlin/ https://poolcast.bandcamp.com/ https://mixcloud.com/ThePoolcasts/ https://pooltracks.bandcamp.com/ https://open.spotify.com/show/5YxJHKoPPflbj9NKleINUz https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/poolcast/id1462173000 https://overcast.fm/itunes1462173000/poolcast https://pca.st/tC92 https://bit.ly/2LwuUBE https://amzn.to/2K3elN4
POOLcast 097 - Demiurge

POOLcast 097 - Demiurge
POOLcast 097 - Demiurge Our last edition of POOLcast for 2023 brings us back a familiar face. Demiurge aka Demas von Klangscheiben, founding member of POOL and co-initiator of the idea of a monthly podcast series under the POOL banner, has sat down at his modular system again after a "life stuff" break and provided us a recording for you. The end of this creative break is more than a return to what was. This is not an attempt to simply make the past tangible again. Rather, something new is being created here from a cognitive narrative. A reinterpretation of past creations is inevitable, but a return to a deterministic archetype of artistic existence is not to be anticipated. There is therefore nothing better than a POOLcast to provide a platform for this new artistic phase in Demiurge's work.

POOLcast 096 - GNILYF
POOLcast 096 - GNILYF We start our new POOLcast season with a mixtape by Gnilyf, co-founder and POOLcast curator from the very beginning. For the start of our tenth POOLcast season, gnilyf presents a mixtape that ranges between the genres of jazz, experimental, ambient, drone and techno. The mixture of styles has accompanied POOLcast since the first editions and is thus the cornerstone for the development of POOLcast from a pure genre playground to a space for unfiltered creativity. Without limitations and audience-driven expectations in curation, we try to be a platform for the unexpected, inspiring and challenging with our own productions and curated contributions. A platform for works of art that come as directly as possible from the creative level to the listener without external influences and thus evoke a reaction that can be both harmony and dissonance. Between these two ends of the spectrum is the space in which art is created and consumed. Join us for the tenth season.

POOLcast 094 - ANN
POOLcast 094 - ANN For our September issue we have another Founderscast, so a POOLcast directly from the heart of The POOL Berlin and the POOLcast department. ANN's ongoing journey through the spheres of electronic music currently finds a new peak in the interplay of Ambient and Drone. The first thought that comes to mind with the terms Ambient and Drone is the idea of a wall of standing vibrations building up in front of you. However, what sounds like sonic brutalism here is actually much more than walls that seem to stretch endlessly in all directions. Rather, ambient and drone are amorphous spheres that exist in countless variations. These spheres of electronic music, with their oscillating and undefined edges, can merge, orbit, overlap, sublimate, or phase out. The resulting complex musical spaces are much more than vibrating walls.

POOLcast 093 - PLO
POOLcast 093 - PLO Our August issue brings you another live improvised recording from our very own project PLO. For this recording ANN, Dr.Nojoke, Waldboot and The Artist Formerly Known as From Karaoke to Stardom came together with a whole truckload of music hardware. Samplers, grooveboxes, keyboards, guitar pedals, synthesizers and more create a unique vibe at the PLO sessions right from the set up and sound check. The unpredictable combination of all the instruments, effects and ideas, which are completely recombined from session to session, create a breeding ground of creativity for the artists attending the session. With the goal of allowing as few mental filters as possible to come between artistic intuition and the piece. To create an environment in which the participating artists allow the purest form of art. It is therefore also unnecessary to use typical musical phrases to classify the resulting work. The consumption of such artworks should also be enjoyed with as little bias as possible.

POOLcast 091 - Dr.Nojoke
POOLcast 091 - Dr.Nojoke For our first summer POOLcast in 2023 we have a collector set from our beloved Dr.Nojoke. Classical, dub, techno, ambient, jazz and electronic are carefree mixed together here, creating a marvel over and over again that fits perfectly into the POOLcast concept. "Life During Wartime" - Part 2, is what Dr.Nojoke calls his collage. Part 1 was a little over a year ago ( https://soundcloud.com/thepoolberlin/poolcast-077-drnojoke ). Time has not stopped and continues to pass ceaselessly. Plans of that time have occurred, have been forgotten, have changed or have been postponed. If you try to recall this point in time, it will bear more or less fruit. Predictable, you might think, our existence, chained by the absolute determinism of time. The moment, a quantum of time. The moment as the purpose of life, no consideration, no foresight, nothing that makes our actions tangible and useful beyond the "self in the moment". Are causes and effects even comprehensible for us beyond the moment or is the timeless self just an unattainable fantasy? What does time do to us? Listen and find out.

POOLcast 090 - IMT
POOLcast 090 - IMT Ninety releases in our POOLcast series is over seven years of monthly releases and for our current milestone ANN and GNILYF aka IMT, our main POOLcast organizers, sat down at their instruments and recorded one of their fully improvised sessions. Such sessions are always an exploration of two constantly, independently, changing musical spheres. Spheres that constantly orbit each other, collide, repel and drift apart again until the musical entity of the two spheres has re-enriched itself with musical mass and energy that there is once again an attraction of the two worlds. These collisions lead to oscillations which can excite each other or lead to extinction. Parts of the two spheres are absorbed and recombined by the other. This transfer of musical mass and energy creates IMT.

POOLcast 088 - GNILYF x Waldboot
POOLcast 088 - GNILYF x Waldboot For our March issue this year we have a kind of creative face-off. The two alter egos of our POOLcast host Sebastian lets the different musical worlds of his creation compete against each other. The two sides of his musical being draw their creativity from self-created sounds, with all kinds of synthesizers and effects, programmed and arranged by himself. However, two hearts beat in his creation, which significantly influence the creation in each creation against each other and with each other. The love for rhythmic sequences and groovy bassline competes against the desire for acoustic and emotional synthesizer. Experimental soundscapes that want to nestle with classic dub and minimal lines. The meshing of these two hearts is a perpetual conflict that yearns for reconciliation. This POOLcast is a renewed attempt at convergence.

POOLcast 086 - .subd
POOLcast 086 - .subd We kick off the year with a POOLcast edition of .subd from Brazil. POOLcast 086 is a refreshingly energetic piece of work, the perfect start to a new year with our POOLcast series. Every year around new year, some reflect on the past one, and others wonder what the new one has in store for them. Sometimes we look back on the past and let our thoughts wander into the future. But it is quite usual for these two behaviors to be very much separated from each other in a person's life. To make the same decisions for the future on the basis of experiences is often not possible. Times, people and oneself are subject to constant change, so it seems deceptive that future decisions can be made purely on the basis of the past. But here art can serve as an anchor between the past and the future, letting us experience nostalgia and an atmosphere of departure simultaneously. Art can unite past, future, chaos, order, nature and technology, helping us to have truly timeless experiences. Happy New Year. Enjoy. https://poolcast.bandcamp.com/track/poolcast-086-subd https://soundcloud.com/thepoolberlin/poolcast-086-subd https://www.mixcloud.com/upload/ThePoolcasts/poolcast-086-subd/ // .subd From the outskirts of Osasco/São Paulo west zone, he is the only one in his region to produce this style.

POOLcast 084 - GNILYF
POOLcast 084 - GNILYF For the conclusion of our seventh season, here's one of GNILYF's Melange Mixtapes. Whether it's ambient, jazz, techno, electronic, musique contrete, classic or virtuosic instrumental music, anything can end up in these multitrack mixtapes. The goal is a journey through many emotional states, creating new perspectives with every playthrough and ever changing mindsets. Sometimes after sixty minutes, the same feeling can arise as if you were looking back on an entire year. Isn't it strange how experiencing moments and remembering them can not seldom lead to completely contrary feelings. Even knowing this fact does not change its outcome. Experience changes us in such a way that we do not look at past things with the same ego as we look at future things. Repeated experience also changes our view of things again. The constant changes of our self are unstoppable and thus, with the necessary awareness and open-mindedness, enable us to experience ever new adventures, even in the most trivial moments. On to the ninth season of POOLcast.

POOLcast 083 - rand

POOLcast 083 - rand
POOLcast 083 - rand We are happy to present something very new and unique for our october issue. rand, the duo for urban sensitive music for piano and electronics by Dr.Nojoke and Jan Gerdes, have provided us with an exclusive recording of an improvisation. rand have just released their first album "Peripherie", which they distribute themselves. A project that took over two years of work and is now available as download, CD and limited vinyl edition. This time they demonstrate that they are not only able to record excellent music in the studio, furthermore they are also presenting their vision of the fusion of piano and electronics in an improvised way. rand merges the pure, acoustic nature of the piano with the twisted world of electronics, often breaking with expectations of normal listening habits. Unpredictably, the two seemingly so different musical and falsely pre-determined spheres can abruptly switch positions. Piano and electronics coexist on an equal level in all areas of the musical process. Rhythm, tonality and dynamics are not reserved for one of the two realms. The apparent boundaries between electronics and piano blur for moments now and then, only to appear tangible again a few moments later. This creates a constant tension that surrounds the recording from beginning to end. So it's worth taking the time to listen actively several times, preferably in different environments and states of mind, alone or together, to feel firsthand what the apparent tension between piano and electronics can trigger.

POOLcast 082 - ANN
POOLcast 082 - ANN Our September edition of the POOLcast this year comes from one of our co-founders, ANN. He rolled out his music carpet and provided us with a digitized tape recording for you. "THE LOST RECORDINGS ARE LEADING US TO ALL THE ANSWERS WE'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR IN THE BEGINNING" - ANN Searching and finding is an integral part of life and especially the creative life. Sometimes you search without knowing what and sometimes you find without having searched. Nevertheless, both are neither the beginning nor the end of a definable or easily navigable path. Finding and searching are like gates in the maze of being and thinking. If we push open the gates in search of something specific, we can find something unexpected and immediately when we find what we are looking for, curiosity arises as to what is hidden behind the next gate. Be seekers and you will find.

POOLcast 080 - PLO
POOLcast 080 - PLO Our 80th POOLcast issue comes directly from the original POOL forge. PLO the heart of the matter, the driving force behind POOL and everything that surrounds POOL, so it is a logical causality to celebrate our current anniversary edition with PLO. POOLcast 080 is a recording. which was created between the holidays in December 2021 as part of the rC3 - remote Chaos Experience - of the Chaos Computer Club. The virtual event had a diverse program of talks, panels and shows. PLO was invited to play the "Abchillgleis". As usual the result was a completely improvised recording with the help of electric piano, modular system, grooveboxes and synthesizers. Fluctuations between experimental, minimal, jazz, ambient, soundscapes, noise and electronica create two hours of escapism, which could hardly be better suited to switch into the well-deserved weekend mode.

POOLcast 079 - Waldboot
POOLcast 079 - Waldboot Our latest edition of the POOLcast comes this month from Waldboot. A fictional, artificial construct from the world of Three Apes. POOLcast 079 is a weave of the musical aspects of this construct. Synthetic, acoustic and emotional sounds, which have their origin in the coincidence of the moment, document a timeless journey through sheer endless worlds. Waldboot's musical form manifests itself in almost exclusively self-synthesized sounds, using various generative algorithms to create a fabric of organic textures and artificial atmospheres. This seemingly tangled web serves as a breeding ground for all sorts of emotional moments and unpredictable ramifications. A kind of a musical maze, which knows neither entrance nor exit. You get the feeling as if you were, are and will irrevocably always have been a part of this mesh. Coincidence with meaning generates emotions.

POOLcast 078 - Collab Special - IMT + The Artist Formerly Known as From Karaoke to Stardom

POOLcast 078 - Collab Special - IMT + The Artist Formerly Known as From Karaoke to Stardom
POOLcast 078 - Collab Special - Infinite Monkey Theorem + The Artist Formerly known as From Karaoke to Stardom Issue 078 of our POOLcast series brings you another collaboration special. This time we have an excerpt of the session of the Infinite Monkey Theorem Duo, consisting of Marcus Block and Sebastian Mehl, and The Artist Formerly Known as From Karaoke to Stardom. The session is completely improvised and played and recorded live with all kinds of electronic devices and software. Such sessions have become an integral part of the POOL universe and vary greatly in their outcome depending on the field of participants. The combination of the fragile ambient and drone, which IMT have written themselves on the flag and the melodic and effect-rich playfulness of From Karaoke to Stardom creates a lively, filigree in-between world. A kind of musical bubble that seems to be coated by a thin membrane. At first you seem to recognize something inside or perceive reflections on the surface. But piece by piece, elements diffuse in and out quite inconspicuously, until over time a homogeneous, isotropic whole emerges, which no longer reveals any real boundaries. After a while, you ask yourself, are you looking at a world from the outside or are you part of it? Like the cosmological principle, a new world is created through the mixing of two realities, which could most simply be described as romantic surrealism. Unreal and yet familiar, luminously bright, but with perceivable shades. Somehow shadowy and twisted, yet detailed and inviting in an unexplainable way. Where else can you hear romantic surrealism?
