Jan Blomqvist is part of the legendary electronic music scene in Berlin – but he’s also a singer and producer, so his take on techno and house music is more song-oriented than many of his fellow DJs. One thing that sets Blomqvist apart is that he makes music in the studio with an eye towards live performance, earning him a description of “concert techno”. His latest album, MUTE, is about a generation that has grown up with apparently unlimited connectivity but still feels disconnected (which is also the name of his record label.) Sometimes the songs grow from and explore silence, (not just the space before the beat drops), while others create hope in dark and uncertain times. There’s even a song that tells the love story between a human and an AI, like in the film HER or the recent novel Annie Bot. Jan Blomqvist lays down pulsing energy and haunting vocals, in-studio.

Set list: 1. Destination Lost 2. Underwater 3. Algorithm
