CLUB Lab – LIVE A/V
Conference
CLUB Lab – LIVE A/V
ADE Lab, DJ Mag & Melkweg join forces once again for CLUB Lab – the multidisciplinary night where electronic music, live A/V, and club culture collide. This is the moment where ADE Lab and the wider community come together to close the week on the dancefloor.
CLUB Lab celebrates new sounds, forms, and faces with two spaces to explore: a stacked club night in the Melkweg UP room, and an immersive A/V and film program in the Melkweg Cinema. Together, they spotlight the future of electronic music and audiovisual culture, with performances and premieres by some of the most exciting emerging and established names.
This year’s Cinema Room features the premiere screening of AFRICAN GOLD – a short documentary by filmmaker Wietske Overdijk following DJ/producer Philou Louzolo over the past two years. With roots in Congo, Nigeria and Sierra Leone, Louzolo has carved out a forward-thinking blend of afro house, melodic, and deep sounds, playing stages from Berghain to Dekmantel. The film is a vibrant, intimate portrait of transformation, exploring the power of music, family, and the universal search for “home.”
Alongside the screening, FIBER presents Audiovisual Symbiosis – a one-off evening of four brand new collaborations. Pairing musicians with visual artists, the program features live scores, reimagined works, and improvisation-based performances designed to transform the Melkweg Cinema into an intimate playground of sound and image.
