Einstürzende Neubauten – thats pronounced Ein-stuur-zen-duh noi-bau-ten for all you non German speakers – means "Collapsing New Buildings". It's a name that will make sense to anyone familiar with the band, founded in 1980 by Blixa Bargeld and N.U. Unruh. It will make sense with regard to their sonics – often a cacophony of scrap metal, power tools and architectural detritus, ushering in an entirely new genre of industrial music. It will also make sense with regard to their outlook, which was one of ruthless iconoclasm, both for the musical lineage of the past, and the institutions of their present.
This two hour mix of Einstürzende Neubauten's best music, selected by 150 Session.

We were truly delighted to be able to participate in this year’s edition of Forget Amnesia, an incredible contemporary art festival held on the volcanic island of Stromboli in Sicily. This year’s curators, Haroon Mirza and Milovan Farronato, put together a great series of performances, exhibitions, installations and shows, with a particular focus on sound and music. Below you can hear three special show packages put together during the festival, with samples from the events held across the two weeks, and interviews with participating artists. You can also listen to a selection of our recordings of DJ and live sets. Enjoy!
