For the first time in Munich: Aircraft Live
Founded in Kyiv in 2011 and now based in Berlin, the band Aircraft has built a devoted international following with music reduced to its bare essentials: drum machine, guitar and voice. Gentle vocals drift over warm, brooding guitar motifs and the pulse of vintage drum machines and synthesisers. Somewhere between early Depeche Mode, Cocteau Twins and A.R. Kane, their sound can move without warning from light irony into melancholy, tension and gothic shadow. Minimal in form, deeply atmospheric in effect.
The concert launches a new series dedicated to contemporary Ukrainian music, art and culture, taking place at Lieberscholli over the coming months. The series is curated by Olha Borovyk, a Kyiv-born, Munich-based producer, translator, artist and cultural activist. In 2022, she produced and curated Munich’s first event series devoted entirely to contemporary Ukrainian culture, bringing some of Ukraine’s leading artists to the city.
Before Aircraft take the stage, Borovyk presents the live premiere of her audio project Unrounded Vowels. She translates works by major contemporary Ukrainian poets into English while preserving their rhythm, rhyme and natural musicality. Layered over lo-fi beats and electronic soundscapes, the poems become immersive audio pieces that carry the sound and movement of the Ukrainian originals into English, allowing their humour, grief and intimacy to travel beyond language. Following coverage by leading European media, including Süddeutsche Zeitung, the project will be performed live for the first time with internationally touring DJ and producer Human Rias, who reconstructs its electronic architecture around Borovyk’s voice in real time.
After the concert, Tuff Monty, resident at LEGAL, curates the closing party from 22:00, joining fellow Munich underground favourites Mikey Gee and Marcella behind the decks. Exquisite house and techno from the 90s to right now, deep into the morning.
