Tuesday, May 14th @ FLUXBAU
Our very WISE partner GEMA joins us at Fluxbau on May 14th, with a stellar lineup lasting til 4am (!) in the morning (Hey, it´s Tuesday night in Berlin after all), where you can fluidly mingle with beautiful peers & queers in spaces saver than your bedroom.
Everyone is welcome to dance to the beautiful tunes of the incredibly talented future-pop star NADAV SIVAN, Berlin Gen-Z-icon-to-be BENZII´s melancholic live-techno and Greek-Teutonic duo LOCAL SUICIDE´s dark-disco.
We open the night with HARRIET DAVEY´s mind-blowing immersive 3D world meta dance performance. Also, we throw in the best indie band you have seen since BLOC PARTY - SLIX: We promise you will sing along the anthems of those adorable, high-energy Glasgow lads faster than you can voice LaLaLa, and definitely before they hit the big stage (e.g this summer at Madrid´s MAD COOL). So come early and leave late.
Wednesday, May 15th @ Badehaus
For the big blowout of the third Berlin edition of WISE FESTIVAL 2024 we have a very special program for you: With only one album to her name, SAM QUEALY - the techno pop princess - is already a worldwide icon. Think Madonna meets Peaches.
She will be supported by Lugano trio MONTE MAI and their ethereal, mesmerizing & dancy art-pop and TAJAN.
When he´s not busy being the head of music supervision at Louis Vuitton working alongside the likes of Virgil Abloh, Nicolas Ghesquiere and now Pharrell Williams, Vincent is DJing obscure Disco records under his last name TAJAN at infamous Paris clubs with even more infamous Paris names like the now defunct Paris Paris or Le Petit Palace. Legend has it that he once ran a radio show called Achtung Radio in San Diego & Tijuana, alongside PG WISE and Eli Cohen of Alliance Upholstery/Magic Words fame and he was the first french man playing JUSTICE on US Radio.
The journey with Sam started at the 2023 POPKULTUR Festival, when Philipp G. WISE stumbled into a breathtaking show and booked her right on the spot to WISE REFLECTIONS in Shanghai. Since then, she has sold out shows all over Europe during her ongoing BLONDE VENUS tour, named after her debut produced by LA FEMME´s maestro Marlon Magnee. She has been featured in VOGUE, NÚMERO, LES INROCKS and QUOTIDIEN France´s most popular talk show with roundabout 2 million viewers and MIXMAG writes: “Sexy but Terrifying - Sam Quealys techno pop - will fuck with your head” Her magnetic aura, looks of a pop star & attitude of a rockstar has also caught the attention the likes of industry heavyweights such as JEAN-PAUL GAULTIER or FKA TWIGS while her influence in the drag community with her voguing house (Comme des Garçons) has garnered the admiration of notable figures like Nicky Doll, Sasha Colby, and La Grande Fame.
Wildly erotic, genre-bending, and irresistibly magnetic - this will be the last time you will see Sam Quealy in an intimate setting.
Get your tickets fast, as SAM just sold out Berghain Kantine earlier this year with nearly 200 people on the waiting list. In France she is on the way to superstardom already anyway.
