CTM 2017 FEAR ANGER LOVE will examine the unhinging and emancipatory potential of resonant (musical) emotion to question and challenge the status quo. Through 10 days of special projects, commissioned works, performances ranging from extreme noise explorations to contemporary club sounds and an intensive daytime programme, this 18th edition continues CTM Festival’s ongoing intent to make space for radical forms of musical expression and dissonant emotion.
The festival will run 27 January – 5 February 2017 at Berlin venues HAU Hebbel am Ufer, Berghain, Yaam, and the Kunstquartier Bethanien. Newly confirmed acts are:
