Mouse on Mars
AAI AV
ft. Dodo NKishi
Mouse on Mars, the Berlin-based duo of Jan St. Werner and Andi Toma, approach electronic music with boundless curiosity and unparalleled ingenuity. Operating in their own orbit within dance music’s nebulous echosystem, the duo’s hyper-detailed productions are inventive and groundbreaking, yet always infused with a signature joyful experimentation.
Their genre-less embrace of cutting-edge technologies has ensured that every Mouse on Mars release sounds strikingly modern—a remarkable feat, especially when considering the duo’s 25 years of making music.
Their latest album and live show, AAI (Anarchic Artificial Intelligence), takes Toma and Werner’s fascination with technology and undogmatic exploration a quantum leap further. Collaborating with writer and scholar Louis Chude-Sokei, a collective of computer programmers, and longtime Mouse on Mars partner/percussionist Dodo NKishi, the duo explores artificial intelligence both as a narrative framework and a compositional tool, summoning their most explicitly science-fiction-inspired work to date.
The Subset Festival, the multifaceted music platform launched in 2023, held by the Athens Epidaurus Festival in co-production with the Athens Conservatoire, returns refreshed but always with a focus on the dialogue between contemporary music and new media.
Named after a mathematical term (subset ⊆), Subset Festival weaves together diverse versions of contemporary musical creation, incorporating a wide variety of artistic trends. From June 4 to June 8, the Conservatoire venues will host musical ensembles and soloists, established and up-and-coming alike, both from Greece and around the world, visual and sound installations and performances, as well as open-call workshops.
