Cold electronica / Futurism / Queer / Noir
FIUME / LE CHOCOLAT NOIR
Two aliases of Jasmin Yas, both unified under the strobe light and hailing from the decaying industrial town of Sisak.
FIUME (L.I.E.S., Panzerkreuz/Bunker, Cefalù Tourist Information) was born in 2018 with the throbbing sound of Moog DFAM, inspired by stories and personal experiences from travels to mostly tropical parts of the World. FIUME is about futurism, Haïtian vodou and African rituals, about swimming over the WWII submarine in the shallow bays of warm Caribbean Sea and being soaked with the cold Northern Adriatic rain, about love, magic and mysterious occurrences.
LE CHOCOLAT NOIR aka LCN, un chevalier noir with releases on She Lost Kontrol, Helena Hauff's Return To Disorder, Gooiland Elektro, Frigio, Kraftjerkz, Charlois and many more, is a model unrepresentative aiming for his utopian dream(s) since year 2000.
Jasmin Yas is a member of bRAVE collective from Zagreb and is a resident DJ of Ljubljana's Elektroliza events, with previous residency at Zagreb's Queer Festival. Having played at countless events from Brasil to Japan and primarily in Europe, he performed at Dekmantel Selectors, Dimansion and Exit Festivals, as well as at Intergalactic FM Festival. He is also releasing under alias Honored Matres, is a member of Florence Foster Fan Club with Zarkoff and has been producing/releasing music in the prolific collab with Christian Kroupa since 2021. For nearly ten years Jasmin Yas has been selecting and playing a wide range of music in his radio show Disco Panonia on The Hague based Internet radio Intergalactic FM.
