Listening Session with TBA & Illusion
On the occasion of this year’s Kunstroute, we are delighted to welcome the two local music collectives, TBA and Pumpenfabrik from Aachen and Illusion from Cologne to put together a program of live acts and experimental DJ sets. With their shared idea of creating a place that allows a holistic experience of electronic music beyond the dancefloor, TBA, Illusion, and Pumpenfabrik will create a space in the Ludwig Forum that allows visitors to explore different modes of listening. Alongside the colllectives members’ contribution the Cologne-based, South-Korean music producer and interdisciplinary artist Inwoo Jung, will perform a live set.
