Telephones to host fundraising event at Niemetzstraße

Celebrating the 50th episode of his New Massage radio-series, Telephones is throwing a 12 hour marathon show and fundraiser, live from our Niemetzstraße location on Wednesday 6th August from 10:00 - 22:00. You can tune in from home, but better yet, if you are in town - come on down!

Proceedings from the event are going to local mental health/support phone-line initiatives Frauenkrisentelefon e.V. and Schwulenberatung Berlin, as well as pet-adoption/welfare organisation Tierschutz Berlin (courtesy of his most frequent and vocal celebrity guest, Cosmo the poodle).

We have an array of special guests dropping by during the broadcast and in true eclectic New Massage-style the day starts with horizontal ambient, experimental and jazz, slowly moving on through downbeat, street-soul, dub, leftfield pop, balearic, disco, acid, house and trippy techno-flavours.

Joining Telephones in the Niemetzstraße booth will be Hong Kong and Mihn Club-resident Xiaolin, followed by recently relocated Tokyo-DJ, Courtney Bailey. The Orbita-trio DJ Aficionado, Eleonora K and Llupe drop by with sandy sandals and Balearic discs, meanwhile DJ Fett Burger goes b2b with DJ Sommer for a proper house-jam. Finally, NYC's Public Records-resident DJ, Sinéad, swings by with her pure groove spin on 90/00s UK and West Coast house.

There also be massages offered (physio+chiro) courtesy of Out Of Seven, a record-sale, prizes, drinks, ice cream, as well as live-painting from visual artists Naomi Takaki and DJ Fett Burger, making their own visual interpretations of the music during the event. The paintings will be sold at the end of the event, with funds going towards our chosen charities. J. Hannevold International, and Douglas Lee aka An-I will also exhibit prints and artworks for sale.

We are excited to invite you for an all-day community hangout and celebration, for your mind, body and soul..

Unity in the community!
