Several minutes of dust conditioned to rise. Revealing the story through the drops of water. Spoken word sound collage live music. Theresa Patzschke and Eleni Poulou make tapes, zines, performances.
Organza Ray are Hilary Jeffery and Eleni Poulou. They are connecting pathways of knowledge through sound, discovering shimmering entrances and underwater arches. 400 years of long notes, open bags and dancing butterfly blues.
NOHE NOSHE are Petr Step Kišur (founder of the Honey Suckle Company art collective) and Eleni Poulou (The Fall). They make healing music with synthesizers and an Indian harmoniu

There’s no hiding place down here
There’s no hiding place down here
Oh I ran to the rock to hide my face
The rock cried out – “No hiding place”
No hiding place down here
While practising tuba at Tempelhofer Feld in the beautiful Berlin summer of 2020 – in between shutdowns – I found myself playing the melody to “We Shall Overcome”. While playing, new lyrics came to me affirming my firm belief that reality is already virtual enough and so “we shall go offline”.
Singalong with Jupiter Cat!

take the centre exit
of the fading blue temple building
which is a third space in-between
not one thing or another
sliding through a silent corridoor
into a space beyond the silence
the exit is the entrance
offering a way through the blue smoke
to a misty seashore where a voice shouts
hey!
“You’re on Earth. There’s no cure for that.”
Samuel Beckett – Endgame
JUPITER CAT
if i were a fat cat
“If I Were A Fat Cat”
While practising tuba, shortly after the Corona shutdown started in Berlin, I found myself playing the melody of “I Were A Rich Man” from the musical “Fiddler On The Roof”, while playing this song new lyrics came to me and I realised I had to record them. The lyrics refer to fat cats of this world – if they were to pay their dues (as most of us already do) and share their wealth which many people actually help to generate worldwide, they would help to solve many of the economic and other problems caused by this crisis. I do not have many naïve illusions or hopes that this utopian-psychedelic-Brechtian-anthem will change much, but at least its hopefully some entertainment for friends and colleagues.
