CCL/ Berlin ๐
While many DJs approach genre and scope adventurously, few are as expansive and unique as CCL. With an incisively technical and uncannily creative approach to mixing, and a ravenous appetite for music of all kinds, they unite the unimaginable.
As a DIY festival organizer and record collector, drawing from their experiences in Bristol, the DIY scene of Seattle and the American Midwest, CCL has a unique a๏ฌnity for fluidity and liminality, weaving music together through distinct narratives that open wormholes between all genres and tempos. From their critically acclaimed radio show liquidtime, their event residency Subglow, and through traversing some of the best clubs and festivals worldwide, such as Sustain Release, Draaimolen, Nowadays, Unsound, Bassiani and more. They continue to showcase and further develop their unique take on sonic storytelling with a highly adaptable sense of dancefloor intuition.
Their mix โOde to the Q***r Steppasโ was named as one of the best mixes of the decade by Resident Advisor. All sounds and energy that manifest from CCL are there to highlight the connectivity of all beings, whether itโs through making our bodies sweat, our minds expand, or our hearts feel deeply. Harmonizing and connecting disparate sound into bold and enticing ecosystems is constantly present in their DJ setsโblooming and moulting through a plethora of infectious steppers, psychedelic techno, supple house, dusty 80s synths, glittering footwork, psychedelic post-punk guitars, bubbling drum and bass, twisted dub, and all that lies beyond and between. Theyโve garnered accolades for their adventurous musical vision and knack for tension, storytelling and release.
Come witness them in action for their Boorloo debut 3 hour extended set! โค๏ธโญ๏ธ
