ATA KAK (Ghana / Awesome Tapes From Africa)
Tuesday, November 11th
Doors: 19:00 | Show: 20:00
Neue Zukunft (Alt-Stralau 68, 10245)
Ata Kak, the Ghanaian enigma whose highlife-hip-hop-funk wizardry has electrified dance floors worldwide, lands in Berlin this November. On the 11th, Neue Zukunft hosts the cult icon behind Obaa Sima — a cassette-born masterpiece that vanished into obscurity before being rediscovered and hailed as a cornerstone of Afro-futuristic sound. His live shows are a euphoric mix of raw rhythm, frenetic Twi rap, and lo-fi magic — joyful, unfiltered, unforgettable.
Originally recorded in a Toronto apartment using homemade gear and unstoppable vision, Obaa Sima fuses ancestral groove with early electronic grit — music that feels both futuristic and familiar. Once a total mystery, Ata Kak has since toured the world, lighting up Glastonbury, Roskilde, and Reykjavik with his ecstatic stage presence and boundless energy. Now it’s Berlin’s turn. Come dance to the sound that nearly disappeared — and came back louder than ever.
Support:
Mustelide
Afterparty:
DJ, archivist and founder of a legendary label "Awesome tapes from Africa", Brian Shimkovitz
has turned his passion for cassette culture into one of the most thrilling phenomena in underground music. His DJ sets dive into rare and electrifying sounds from across the African continent — raw, unpredictable, and impossible not to dance to.
