BBTCOR presents: A Soft Guide to Chill
About the event
LNR, Archetype, Gizem Öz, and Sarah Saleh take you on a sonic journey at W139. During ADE, they translate the research from BBTCOR's A Soft Guide to Chill into an evening full of DJ sets, live performances, and installations surrounding the 90s chill-out space. An evening centered around the 90s chill-out area
A Soft Guide to Chill is a residency by BBTCOR at W139, where archival research, scenography, and live art come together. The evening revolves around the chill-out space as a concept: a place from 90s rav culture where people unwinded, connected, and experienced music differently. This idea forms the common thread throughout the entire program.
DJ sets and live performances
LNR, the DJ alter ego of El Bickers, opens the evening with sets that connect underground music histories with the contemporary club landscape. Archetype performs his album Nothing New Under The Sun: a reflection on isolation and connection in a hyper-connected world. Composer and sound artist Gizem Öz delivers a live performance at the intersection of club music, ritual, and abstraction.
Sarah Saleh concludes
Sarah Saleh, co-founder of BBTCOR, closes the evening with a set that brings together ambient, dub, downtempo, and psychedelic influences. Her work builds on her research into the 90s chill-out space as a place for collective listening and reflection.
Installations and scenography in W139
In addition to the music, installations and artistic scenography can be seen at W139. The space is designed as a contemporary interpretation of the original chill-out area. Are you interested in this program? Use the link for more information.
