Why am I here? Welche Eissorte? Warum? When is it 17 o‘ clock? Where is my horse? What do I hear? Where do you live? What sound do you like to hear when falling asleep? Perhaps we won’t find all the answers this time, but there is always next year, by the lake.

Against the backdrop of Slovakia’s terrifying socio-political turmoil, this documentary radio piece explores Bratislava’s vibrant and courageous independent music and cultural scene and some of the community spaces in which it develops. Now they are facing their biggest challenge, to keep it alive and kicking.
We’ve been there (for the bad parts mostly), and we are still stuck there. From Skopje to Bratislava, with love.
Recorded and edited by Gjorgji Janevski (summer 2024)

The first electronic music I ever played as a teenager was on a Hammond organ. The drum machine and rhythm generators in particular fascinated me; simplistic devices but somehow very creative, and something in the sound was strangely compelling. I heard Lee Scratch Perry, Sly and the Family Stone, Cabaret Voltaire and Suicide do some remarkably enduring music with such drum boxes, which of course later went on to become a basic element of electronic dance music in general. With this piece I revisit some of these dusty old machines and also some of the other vintage instruments in the studio at Worm, plus my modular synthesiser and sampler, instruments from Rob Hordijk and some occasional blasts of modulated radio.
