Photo credit: Marco Krueger Today Berlin based modular synthesist and DJ JakoJako, aka Sibel Koçer, has released her new Segmente EP on NovaMute. The release falls ahead of a busy summer of live dates that includes an appearance at Junction 2 festival in London on July 27th.

All four tracks on the EP originated in her live show. They are, she explains, “Berghain tested and approved!”, which gives Segmente a propulsive urgency imbued with her distinct take, described by RA as “fragile techno written in the key of wonder”. Koçer’s passion for electronics began with an urge to play with sound, and a desire to learn more about the world of modular systems and patch cables. Her meticulous studies soon progressed into performing regular live sets in Berlin, a Berghain Residency and a position at Berlin electronic music institution, SchneidersLaden. In recent years, her success as a performer has grown steadily. She has also been involved in several motion sensor dance projects at Superbooth and Kraftwerk Berlin, as well as performing at the Royal Albert Hall (with Bonobo) and the Barbican in London (with an improvised “Circle Of Live” performance that featured dance and a specially commissioned art installation).
The new EP follows the Verve EP (her debut for Mute), a full length album, (Metamorphose - 2022, Bigamo) and her collaboration with Rødhåd, (In Vere - 2022, WSNWG), both of which came hot on the heels of two blistering remixes for Mute: New Order’s “Be A Rebel” and Martin Gore’s “Vervet.” JAKOJAKO LIVE DATES: 7/26/2024 - 2Nature (IT) 7/27/2024 - Junction 2 Festival (UK) 7/28/2024 - Äiniwalli (FI) 8/2/2014 – Whole Festival (DE) 8/11/2024 – Paradigm Festival (NL) 8/17/2024 – Ratherlost at Lofi (NL) 8/30/2024 - Station Nuage (FR) 8/31/2024 – Doel Festival (BE) 9/7/2024 - Draaimolen Festival (NL) 9/14/2024 - Smut Athens (GR) 9/20/2024 - Klub K4 (SI) 9/27/2024 – Berlin, Berghain (DE)10/6/2024 - Berghain, Berlin (DE)10/12/2024 - C12, Brussels (BE)10/19/2024 - Closer at Amelia, Milan (IT)10/26/2024 - Laster Club, Madrid (ES)11/1/2024 - Tribalism, Paris (FR)11/2/2024 - Fabric, London (UK)11/6/2024 - University of York (UK)11/7/2024 - La Casita at OHM, Berlin (DE)11/9/2024 - Schotty, Cologne (DE)11/22/2024 - Boiler Room, Frankfurt (DE)11/30/2024 - Ploegendienst festival, Breda (NL) |
