Kompakt Recordstore Sessions - Edition Belgique

In the organizer's words:

DJ sets / reading / installation

14h: DJ set with E.P.I.Q.
16h: Reading & talk with Gisa Funck
17h: DJ-Set Robag Wruhme
19h: DJ-Set Philipp Stoffel
20h: DJ-Set Bruno

E.P.I.Q. is a crew of eight DJs who have been organizing and curating parties in Cologne since 2021, including at King Georg, Helios and JAKI. Their diverse sound ranges from hip-hop to pop to UK garage and techno. They will kick off the day with a 2-hour vinyl set.

We are also delighted that Robag Wruhme will honor us again after many years with a vinyl set in the record store, before he will be on the decks with Denis Stockhausen all night long in the Gewölbe.

Gisa Funck reads from her book "Wir waren hochgemute Nichtskönner - Die rauschhaften Jahre der Kölner Subkultur 1980-1995". She writes about a time in which a particularly creative energy shimmered through the Rhine metropolis - with memories of the beginnings of the music magazine SPEX, the first concert by the British band Joy Division in Cologne's Basement and the founding of the techno label Kompakt.

As a treat, there's music streaming directly over the phone: "Call808" celebrates its debut with an exclusive installation in our store - the first streaming service that will save the music industry. Powered by Cuisine.
