Tresor’s Büro Siebzig returns to Globus for a nine-week summer programme of live performance, artistic experimentation and community gathering. The programme opens with a series of performances exploring the intersections of industrial music, EBM, post-punk and live electronics.
July welcomes appearances from British Murder Boys, Milan W., Morwan, Rosa Damask, Sixth June, Takuya Nakamura and The Spoiled, bringing together artists whose practices aim to challenge the boundaries between club culture, performance and contemporary leftfield music.
August expands the series through collaborations with several independent cultural institutions. Arsenal Mikebe and Pö appear as part of a programme hosted by Nyege Nyege Festival, while Shackleton performs in collaboration with Hard Wax. The series concludes with a finale curated by Refuge Worldwide, reinforcing Büro Siebzig's commitment to exchange and independent cultural programming.
Paul Ćinske-Moulden - Tresor Club Programming & Creative:
“Büro Siebzig is a direct response to the rise of the 'Spectacle' in Berlin club culture. A weekly ritual that strips back the production and puts the people back at the centre. Think haunts such as Risiko Bar, Berlin. CBGB in Manhattan, NYC. and The Factory, Manchester. B70 is a social experiment that will build over time. It will evolve and adapt as audiences respond to the performances. The intimacy of the Globus stage is central to this year's curation. How can we elicit an emotional response from what has devolved into a passive activity of consuming music?“
Originally launched as a platform for artistic crossover, Büro Siebzig takes its name and inspiration from Fischbüro, the experimental West Berlin art space co-founded in the 1980s by Dimitri Hegemann, founder of Tresor. Fischbüro fostered a DIY ethos, and that spirit remains central to Büro Siebzig today.
Shaped by the unpredictability of live performance and the energy of shared creative space, the series creates opportunities for artists and audiences to engage with sound, ideas and one another beyond traditional concert formats. Moving between live electronics, industrial music, performance, rhythm and contemporary sound practice, Büro Siebzig reflects Tresor's continued interest in presenting work that sits beyond conventional genre boundaries.
