MAKING CONTAKT (THE DOCUMENTARY)
Film screening. In collaboration with m-nus.
Film by ali demirel, Richie Hawtin, Niamh Guckian and Patrick Protz.
In collaboration with m-nus and the Kino Babylon, CTM is proud to present an exclusive Berlin preview of the documetary “Making CONTAKT”, followed by Q&A with Richie Hawtin and Ali Demirel.
In 2008, the Minus record label – operated by Richie Hawtin and home to artists such as Magda, Troy Pierce, Konrad Black, Marc Houle, Heartthrob and others – celebrated its ten year anniversary with CONTAKT – a free-flowing, improvisational show involving the label's top DJs and live performers backed up by state of the art visuals. This fly-on-the-wall documentary edited by Niamh Guckian (Totally Wired Movie) superbly documents the journey, offering a unique, behind the scenes look at what makes this crazy, passionate and highly focused group of individuals tick, as they attempt to redefine the conventional clubbing experience.
Interspersed with a running commentary from the artists, friends and backroom staff who made the event possible, it's a warts & all appraisal of the highs, lows, triumphs and near catastrophes that accompanied the tour, revealing exactly what it takes to get a performance of this magnitude on the road and keep the electronic movement pushing forward. The film will be relased on DVD on February 26th, 2010.
Berlin Preview: February 3rd, 2010 | 22:30-0:00h ?at CTM.10 Festival, Kino Babylon, Rosa-Luxemburg-Str. 30, 10178 Berlin, Germany
Tickets: 6.50 EUR at Babylon box office or online > <href="http://www.clubtransmediale.de"> http://www.clubtransmediale.de </a>

Three entirely different approaches with a similar effect: in the gifted hands of these musicians, music becomes a psychotropic substance, transporting the listener to within himself and simultaneously opening the expanses of inner space. Accompanied by trumpet and saxophone, the stately, melancholy melodies of cellist Hildur Gudnadottir unravel with mysterious dark beauty and cinematic atmospherics. The abysmal, nihilistic drone doom of Habsyll opens a black void like the eye of a storm in the midst of cathartic feedback and extreme heaviness. The spartan instrumentation of bass and drums in the stoner mantras of OM combine minimalist repetition and dynamics with immense physical intensity to create spiritual meditations – psychedelic masterpieces in widescreen formation.
Hildur Guðnadóttir (IS)
Hildur Ingveldardóttir Guðnadóttir is a cellist and composer well known for her collaborations with Múm, Pan Sonic, BJ Nielsen and Angel among others. 2009 saw the release of her second solo album, Without Sinking, on the UK-based label, Touch. At CTM.10 Guðnadóttir will perform live with improv sax player Andre Vida (NY) and trumpeter Eirikur Orri Olafsson (IS).
