HACKEDEPICIOTTO + Glice
Line up: HACKEDEPICIOTTO, Glice

HACKEDEPICIOTTO are Alexander Hacke and Danielle de Picciotto. Both are legends of their own making: Danielle de Picciotto moved to Berlin in 1987, to become the lead singer of the band „Space Cowboys“, the co-initiator of the Love Parade, a collaborator of the Ocean Club with Gudrun Gut, and Alexander’s partner in crime. Alexander Hacke is founding member and bass player of Einstürzende Neubauten. The artist couple, romantically married in 2006, has creatively interacted with countless international projects for almost 2 decades now besides regularly releasing their own compositions.

Their live shows are, to put it mildly, intense. Danielle specializes in unusual instruments such as the Hurdy Gurdy, the auto harp and the cemence besides playing the violin and piano; Alexander is master of the bass, guitar and drums. Together they create beautiful, existentialistic, acoustic soundscapes, which roar and vibrate simultaneously leaving their audiences shaken but overjoyed. 

Glice is an Amsterdam-based noise duo that has been producing uncompromising, layered electronics since 2015. Using analog equipment and a keen ear for detail, Ruben Braeken and Melle Kromhout craft a sound that moves between hushed musique concrète and industrial noise, between abstract sonic experiments and moments of fragile melody—sometimes dark and ominous, at other times deceptively meditative.
