Should I really refer to Makode’s (in)famous “Painful Cake” or remind of Zhala’s unconventional visual style and mantra-like music videos such as “Holy Bubbles” or ‘’Prophet’’? Do I even need to mention that the singer is the very honourable first artist signed to Robyn’s Konichiwa Records? Even though any of these well-known facts would be enough to attract crowds of culture-literate clubbers craving for a music experience, it seems that Makode and Zhala’s collaboration reaches even further.

The offical mixtape for the party, made by Zhala for us.

With the DJ sounds and live performances of such intriguing personas as Kornel Kovacs, Lap See Lam or the Venezuelan queen of electronics Aérea Negrot, the event invites to a hedonistic wonderland full of surprises. The slogan of the event is ‘’Release Body’’ and that is exactly what Zhala and Makode want us to experience: a carnal and spiritual indulgence in the wave of music and inspiring visuals. The most efficient connoisseurs of the corporal pleasures will have the opportunity to enter the obscurities of the Naked Room, curated by multi-artist Alexi Carpentieri.
