Academeia

𝑻𝒊𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 @jolenebar Lives: 18:30 - @vicilization & @xyrooooo live 19:30 - @a.dixen 20:30 - @xuri.irux & @j.cleworth 21:30 - @maartenvos_ Club: 23:00 - 02:00 @dj__jm 02:00- 05:00 @vicilization & @xyrooooo Closing the circle on a transparent world. A day of sonic intrigue morphs into a night of ecstatic dance. Academeia invites a gaze inward through transcendent revelries; moments coalescing as reflections on a ‘transparent world’. A day of live echoes through the world building of Maarten Vos, A.Dixen, Xuri & John Cleeworth, Xyro, and Keeptress. In their practice each present encompassing sonic artefacts borne of intrigue and expressed as fragments of lost worlds. Musicality characterised principally in the abstract and yet awash with a human sentimentality; a foundational romanticism. Theirs are respective inquests into cognitive and bodily motion through the expression of the enchanted, ephemeral, and subterranean. An invitation of sorts, born of experimentations in rhythm and melodic fluctuations along analogue interlacements. A night pacing the hedonic treadmill follows. Slink into energetic and embracing momentum through Xyro, Keeptress, and DJ JM. The former purveyors of the subdued, the heads down, the driven; the latter a master of the percussive, of charged musical freneticism at its most pure. Expect a night bound in the kind of scattered hypnotism, rhythmic pulsation, and fevered enchants which comprise this latest release. Equal measures effective and encapsulating. A collection of reflective moments morph into a bounding hedonia, coalescing to form a seamless multitude; the pacing requisite of a triumphant 12 hour run. This, a last summation in a series of events which have bore the imprint of Academeia’s inimitable approach to curation and creation. Visual and auditory microcosms steeped in mysticism and born unto the world, whose impact reverberates beyond the boundaries of its immediacy. Night follows day. One more trip around a transparent world. Text by: @krisrehfeld
