In this new episode of our podcast series The Music Folder, we talk to Laurens von Oswald, director of the Berlin Atonal festival, in conversation with club culture activist Giuseppe Moramarco.

The conversation explores the curatorial dynamics behind a festival unique in its kind, the changing context of Berlin, the central role of the Kraftwerk venue, and whether a festival can be considered an archive of the contemporary. This episode also inaugurates a new collaboration with Berlin Atonal, which will feature further conversations with the artists of the festival.
