Amplify Berlin and Catalyst Music have joined forces! We’re bringing you a series of live-streamed events with Amplify’s mentors and Catalyst’s tutors to further our shared learning and international music communities.
Amplify x Catalyst: on the couch with Jochen Arbeit and Renee Coulombe.
/// Jochen Arbeit
Jochen moved to Berlin in 1980 and became part of the art and music movement Geniale Dilettanten, which had its roots in punk rock and Dada. In 1983 he became a member of the influential instrumental band Die Haut, with whom he toured in Europe and overseas. In 1997 he became an official member of the avant-garde noise band Einstürzende Neubauten, who he first met in the early eighties and has worked on all albums and tours since. Other projects include the Berlin country band The Jever Mountain Boys, the soul band Martin Dean, and painter Martin Eder’s band Richard Ruin et les Demoniaques. In 2006 Arbeit began working with dancer and performance artist Vania Rovisco, which resulted in the project Stupid Green. He also created the music for Abraham Hurtado’s dance piece ‘I was there’. In 2009 he composed a sound installation for an exhibition of Martin Eder’s paintings in Dresden, worked with Stupid Green on a performance for the 90th anniversary of the Bauhaus at Theaterhaus Jena and presented and composed the music for Abraham Hurtados performance installation Die Körper ohne Uns in Murcia, Spain and Mexico City. In 2011 he founded the new band AUTOMAT with members Zeitblom and Achim Färber, with whom he recorded various radio plays and played live shows in Germany. Currently Jochen Arbeit is working on performances with Böse Diva Productions and Finnish choreographer Milla Koistinen.

/// Catalyst Host:
Renée T. Coulombe is a musician, scholar, and entrepreneur of considerable breadth. At once a composer of instrumental, electronic and acousmatic works, she is also an active improvising and experimental pianist and vocalist, a transmedia installation artist and producer, an academic and scholar engaged at the intersections of critical theory, music and media. Educated in instrumental and electronic music composition at Columbia University (MA) and the University of California, San Diego (PhD), her original compositions have been performed across the globe at notable venues from Roulette in New York, to the Open Fist Theatre in Hollywood or The Armory Center for the Arts in Pasadena, the Bimhuis in Amsterdam to Sonic Arts Research Center in Belfast. As founding member and performer with Erroneous Funk, she has thrown down insane grooves for over a decade at venues big and small, like the Viper Room in Los Angeles, Dizzy’s in San Diego, and The Roy O. Disney Hall at CalArts. She has pieces available on the Everglade and Open Space labels as well as her own, Banshee Media. In early 2018, she opened Willows Nest, a hybrid teaching studio and casual performance venue on Boxhagener Strasse in Berlin, where she both produces and performs regularly.
