REEPERBAHN FESTIVAL COLLIDE
CURATED COLLISIONS
A project of Reeperbahn Festival.
COLLIDE connects musicians and visual artists to create unique aesthetic experiences.
Different art forms come together and melt into a single unique performance - that’s the idea behind REEPERBAHN FESTIVAL COLLIDE. Curated with care, we permanently enrich the world wide web with a serial format celebrating music and art.
The concept:
One act, one visual artist, one shared stage.
A creative culmination where unique and custom created works of art visually accompany live performances.
Elastique. is a creative agency based in Cologne and Berlin that has netted several national and international awards for its high-quality visual design. Timo Kreitz held the role of creative director for the COLLIDE project and was instrumental to designing the visuals and overall tonality for each act.
Reeperbahn Festival is the biggest club festival in Europe and the largest European platform for international pop culture and the music industry. Since 2006, for four days each September the Reeperbahn in Hamburg, Germany has become the centre of the international music world and a sustainable interface between artists, the public, industry representatives and society. The Conference programme is aimed at professional visitors from all segments of the music industry from around the world.
The Reeperbahn Festival takes place under the sign of togetherness - racism, sexism, homophobia and exclusion have no place with us.

Inspiriert von den frühen New- Wave- und Punk-Bewegungen, hat sich die in Brooklyn ansässige Synthesizer-Band NATION OF LANGUAGE schnell den Ruf erworben, das Positive mit einer gesunden Dosis sardonischer Melancholie zu verbinden. Von der Kritik geliebt, bescheren sie auch dem begeisterten Publikum wilde Nächte voller unkonventioneller Glückseligkeit.

The lead singer is so modest but has the bearing of a humble and handsome French king.

Reeling from the moment
I stumbled on the life we left behind
Crippling innuendo
Unaffiliated but waiting on the side
Drew a line
Slightly undermined
But I want to find
Meaning, motion
And help me out
I can't seem to dream about
Anything I can defend
I wonder now and then
D'you think that I could simulate
My life, but done a better way
In this fractured mind
Fractured, fractured mind
I get to feeling turned around
And turned around again
Blinding lights a-flashing
Down the Garden State Parkway of your mind
One last call for alcohol
A night that's for the books and then you die
Faster now
Spiraling and crashing now
Waking on the cold hard ground
Worth it, it's worth it
Perpetual
Pseudo-intellectual
Kicking 'round your town again
I wonder now and then
D'you think that I could simulate
My life, but done a better way
In this fractured mind
Fractured, fractured mind
I get to feeling turned around
And turned around again
I'm not the one, not the one
Not the one, I'm not the one
Can you believe I'm not the one
Not the one, not the one
I'm not the one
Staring out the window
At every living thing I'm passing by
We've reached the end
Standing on the edge of it
Thinking back I can't complain
But I wonder now and then
D'you think that I could simulate
My life, but done a better way
In this fractured mind
Fractured, fractured mind
I get to feeling turned around
And turned around again
