On Saturday, August 23, Soy & Synth is back for its 51st edition at our event space, Niemetzstraße 1. This episode will continue the collective’s mission of fostering radical empathy, care, and connection across the rich and complex landscapes of southern diasporas, with performances by Monica Mussungo, Hany Tea, Anguezomo Nzé Mba Bikoro, and Rusnam. Soy & Synth is an independent grassroots event series initiated by Berlin-based Indonesian art collective Soy Division, dedicated to experimental and improvisation music practices from BIPOC emerging artists in Berlin since 2018. To initiate the 2025 edition, it will be co-organized by L_KW (a sound collective which works with sonicactivism), AL.Berlin, Decolonoize and Mixtape Menage.
The 2025 edition contain 3 concerts, 1 discourse talk, and 1 compilation album containing live recording sets from those concerts. It will feature 12 emerging Berlin-based musicians and sound artists from South East Asia, Africa, South American and Middle East/West Asia diasporic backgrounds.
Soy & Synth has taken place 49 times across multiple cities, including Berlin, Vilnius, Zurich, and Yogyakarta. Since its inception in 2018, it has become a vital platform for building new friendships, artistic collaborations, and cultural exchange. More information here.
