Bunker & stranger proudly present Paula Temple (3 Hrs +)
Following a year spent showcasing sets at ADE and Nuits Sonores, we welcome the return of Paula Temple for a 3 Hr + set. For over 15 years Paula Temple has been pursuing her own unique musical path. As a self- confessed noisician she specialises in a noisy, phantasmagoric techno sound, where the dial is rarely turned below 200% and every moment of silence seems deafening. Her 2015 track ‘Deathvox’ is regarded by her peers as one of the most original contributions to modern techno, whilst her most celebrated track ‘Gegen’ remains an anthem at festivals worldwide and was inspired by the defiantly loving queer community of Berlin.
In previous years, Paula co-developed an innovative live performance MIDI controller called the MXF8 in 2001, one of the first of its kind for music technology and ultimately shaped her current style of hybrid LIVE/DJ performances. Blurring the lines between producer, remixer and DJ, Paula layers between her own live pieces, edits and tracks, building powerful, driving sets. In 2015 she started a unique collaboration series called Decon/Recon on her label Noise Manifesto, working with several artists including rRoxymore, Aisha Devi, SØS Gunver Ryberg and Oni Ayhun.
In 2016-2017 she co-produced with Karin Dreijer on the new Fever Ray album ‘Plunge’ which won the Swedish Grammy for Producer of The Year in 2018. Since then, her worldwide touring schedule has included stellar performances at Movement Detroit, Pitch Music & Arts, Unsound Krakow, and Mutek Mexico, as well as being a regular contributor to the Berlin techno scene at Tresor, About Blank, Gegen, Berghain and the now defunct Stattbad. Having recently featured at Timewarp, Montreux Jazz, Dimensions and Awakenings festivals, Paula released her debut album ‘Edge Of Everything’ earlier this year, dubbed by Resident Advisor “an evocative techno album which is an impeccable showcase of Temple’s artistic voice”.
