3.14 (Alex π)

Introduction:
3.14 is the electronic music project of Alex π, Greek born and Berlin based dj and producer, record label co-founder of ‘Modal Analysis’ and the mind behind the Pi Electronics label and event series, the aesthetics of the ’three-one-four’ music ranges from Industrial, techno, EBM, electro to ambient, experimental and noise. His unique production style has been hosted by record labels such as: CLFT, Mutant Series (TripaliumCorp), Soil Records, AMOK Tapes, Khemia, MORD Records, Killekill (the29NOV Films) as well as his own imprint Pi Electronics to name a few.

Alex began in 2007, with regular dj performances at underground parties of his hometown Athens, Greece. Being involved in the organisation of local events, he quickly managed to make a name for his self among the new generation of up and coming djs in Greece. In 2012 he co-founded the Athens record label ‘Modal Analysis’ along with fellow artists Kondaktor and ANFS, which proved to become the platform introducing the emerging techno sound of the time, with particular focus on promoting Greek producers abroad.

In 2013 he relocated to Berlin and the year after he founded the techno record label and event series ‘Pi Electronics’, as a leading member of the ‘π’ collective. The label gained particular reputation due to its cross-genre music curation and label roster, while the π event series hosted 41 events in Berlin and Athens between 2014 and 2019 at venues such as: Arena Club, OHM Berlin, About Blank, Six DOGS, Temple Club, Astron Bar, Romantso and more.

During the years of the pandemic, 3.14 and his Pi Electronics label joined the Berlin collective ‘Club Simulator’ along with prominent Berlin labels: ‘Bite Records’, ‘Fleisch Records’, ‘Instruments of Discipline’ and ‘LiberNull Berlin’, in order to stay active in such a challenging time for musicians.

DJ/Artist:
Theatral Soup

Introduction:
The non-commercial Nuremberg music blog called Theatral Soup started 6 years ago as a hobby and nostalgia project with a radio background to write about current and older releases in the field of electronic music.

The musical sound of the Nuremberg techno DJ Theatral Soup (Kiss Klub, Haus33) himself, in addition to industrial, wavy and punk directions, is strongly influenced by groove, hypnotic, dub techno, Detroit electro, noise, ambient and break, the set design is consciously always present Atmospheric images of beloved arthouse films are inspired and the love for electronic music was probably strengthened by electronic video game scores from childhood. Stylistically, the DJ is on one “never-ending search for identity” somewhere between punk attitude, raw rhythm, surrealistic provocation, rebellious violent aesthetics and minimalism.
