Live at Panorama Bar Berlin (UV-Night)

Interview: Thilo Schneider. Uncanny Valley – Bitte stellt Euch vor. Wir sind das Label Uncanny Valley aus Dresden und wir veröffentlichen Tracks von Künstlern aus unserer Heimatstadt oder aus der näheren Umgebung. Bisher sind drei Compilation-EPs mit jeweils vier Tracks erschienen. Die vorerst letzte Compilation-EP kommt im Mai und ist ein bisschen rougher. Im Sommer starten wir dann mit Künstler-EPs.

Labels to Watch 2011: Uncanny Valley (Beatportal/Beatport)

Posted by admin in News, Press english, Press/Reviews

Detroit has had plenty of unofficial sister cities over the years: back in the ‘90s, Detroit and Berlin famously fused a “techno alliance,” as the title of an early Tresor compilation put it, and in more recent years, Amsterdam has kept flying the flag for Motor City soul. Still, Jacob Korn’s recent track “Dance Away” might have caught listeners off guard, as Kelli Hand reeled off a list of shout-outs to iconic Detroit producers before moving on to big up “all my Dresden house-heads.” Dresden? Really? But something is definitely bubbling…read more

Uncanny Heroes – Video

Posted by admin in Cross Media, Installations, News, Performances, Portfolio

UNCANNY HEROES is an interactive dancefloor installation, which masterly connects club visitors, dance music and surrounding 3D graphics. It is a highly participative mix between a music live act and gaming environment. With their body movements, visitors play on the installation like on a harmonic and cooperative instrument. Visual and musical moods on the dancefloor are created in a dialog among them and the performer. UNCANNY HEROES was developed by intolight, Jacob Korn and members of the VG Laterne collective during a one week workshop. Thanks go to Trans-Media-Akademie, F….read more
