Refraction took over Berlin's Panke Culture this past April for two nights of experimental and immersive audiovisual performances. Crossing both geographies and genres, and mixing DJing, live sets, and everything in between, and there was a palpable buzz in this northern corner of the German capital. The music ran the gamut from the fantastical techno of Hungarian artist The Allegorist to the rapidfire rhymes of Kenyan rapper MC Yallah. Eddington Again brought the hazy funk of his native LA to Wedding, while Bungalovv offered up corroded electronics that harkened back to his project's start in Buenos Aires. Held together less by aesthetics and more by sensibility, these two evenings were a masterclass in programming built around principles of curiosity and artistic adventure.
What a night, NYC. Early in April Refraction returned to Public Records, NY with our friends from Towns.
The dance floor was lit up by BBC Radio 1 host, DJ, and producer Benji B, musician and DJ Athena Yasaman, the contemplative dancy vibes of 063N13, and filled with global disco bangers by Seance Centre & Prince Language on the second floor.
Rick Silva’s ‘Totality’ artwork, Refraction’s latest drop for Refract Pass holders, debuted at Public Records, as well as Metamedia, an interactive chain-agnostic, multi-layer format featuring works from several artists and envisioned by Noah Pred.
Attendees were able to pick up merch from our limited edition drop with Crowdmuse and Harmony-NY, a one-off long-sleeved tee spotlighting all the visual artists and musicians showcased during the night.
