Closing the Goethe-Institut exhibition “Chromium dioxide memory” by Felix Kubin, the artist will perform “Kassettentäter – German Tape Delinquents”.

In a mix of talk and home-recorded tape music, Felix Kubin will shed light on the 80s, when the German music scene was shaken up by an explosion of new bands which sounded radically different to anything that had come before. They played music which was experimental, playful, absurd, minimalist and astute, with lyrics which were sung – or more commonly screamed – in German.

Felix Kubin (born in 1969 in Hamburg, Germany) is a composer, radio-playwright, curator and media artist. He began recording and performing experimental electronic pop music at the age of 12 (see photo). In the 1990s he turned to electroacoustic noise music and co-organised artistic political interventions. In 1998 Kubin started to produce futuristic pop music and launched the independent record label “Gagarin Records”. Over the past decade he has performed at 80 international music and media arts festivals.
