AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE 25TH OF FEBRUARY 2022
Hi,
this is Vlad writing. For those, who don't know – i am the person who is standing behind BeyondBooking.
I must have said something yesterday, but I was speechless, and any words seemed to be pointless. But keeping the silence is a commitment of being a part of the crime. First they came for the socialists...
Round about 2016 I started BB as a way to bring bands from Russia and Ukraine to Berlin/Europe and help them to meet local people and artists. I truly believe that music prevails, and it is a sanctuary for any human being. I also hope, it continues to bond people and not to separate them, and that it still gives consolation and comforts one or another.
I had a chance to tour in Ukraine in 2017, I spent many summers of my adolescence there, the ones who know my surname, know that it is a Ukrainian one. There was never fucking ever any hate or oppression of Russians or Russian speaking there. This is a lie, which Russian 'government' keeps on spreading.
This is not my Russia.
I did not choose this 'government'.
And this is not the war of Russians.
This is a war of an old psychopathic moron, a war criminal, whose days are hopefully numbered.
I despise any authority and putin ruined my country and right now he ruins another one, with blood and fire.
My choice to move to Berlin was not politically reasoned, but my staying here is hell of political right now.
When this nightmare is over, I try my best to give the priority to the Ukrainian bands.
In the meantime – if anyone knows any trustful NGOs helping the Ukrainian refugees in Berlin or anywhere in Europe, please let me know.
I wish I could do more.
It's not them, who gonna pay for this but me.
РУССКИЙ ВОЕННЫЙ КОРАБЛЬ ИДИ НАХУЙ.
Yours,
Vlad

Beyond Booking & Swamp Booking proudly present – a night full of soundscapes and piercing riffs on the 13th of April in Cassiopeia, Berlin
BADA – a black noise/psych rock Swedish collective from Gothenburg devoted to free improvisation and loud contaminations.
BADA is the sinister creature of Anna von Hausswolff, Hannes Nilsson, David Sabel, Filip Neyman and Gianluca Grasselli.
The sounds of BADA come from various and oppugnant directions: drone landscapes, pipe organs dissonances, tribal rhythms, obscure sliding guitars and deep distorted bass. It is from these diverse sources that the process of creativity keeps persistently mutating. An act which reunites the essential bond between music and physical worlds.
BADA will present the new album on this extensive 2020 tour.
Together wit NORDRA and COMMON EIDER, KING EIDER.
More infos soon!
The Sound vs. The Space
The Berlin based noise-rock trio ZEUG play their last show for 2019 on the 13th of December in a very special location - Gustav-Adolf-Kirche in Herschelstraße 14, Berlin.
HEAVY NEWS:
The Moscow based insane noise-rock trio JARS is hitting the roads of Europe once again. And this time straight to the very Western corner of Europe - Portugal.
In Berlin they are joined with the stochastic groove of VORDEMFALL and the piercing riffs of PALM SQUIRREL.
You wanted noise? You get the full package on one night at Musik&Frieden on the 7th of November.
The unstoppable Moscow based noise-rockers JARS are back on track again with their new EP “ПОДЛОГ“. See them crushing down the stage of Musik&Frieden in Berlin on the 7th of November!
„Jars are a devilishly brilliant combination between Shellac’s dislocated grooves, driving bass and skull scraping rhythm guitar and a slice of the darker end of metal — it’s such perfect idea you wonder why no-one has done it before. The three piece thrill with a powerful post punk utilising the Albini method of linear noise but with all that use of space. Huge sound scapes are built from the guitar/bass/drums. A creeping insurgent uneasiness in this dark terrain. This is a crashing claustrophobia and a very intelligent use of minimalism and space.“ - John Robb, Louder than War
Shortly after their new LP PLOHO released new music video for the song “ЗАКЛАДКА“ (russ. for “stash“). Join the vertigo trip - watch it now and don’t forget to get your tickets for the Berlin show
On the 4th of October the Russian post-punk heroes PLOHO are coming back to Berlin to perform together with the local darkwave duo SZALAZAR. Follow the link below to get your tickets now!
The Moscow noise-rock trio JARS released their new music video “МЕНТ“ (russ. for “cop”, pronounced [mʲent]) from the upcoming EP “ПОДЛОГ“ (russ. for “forgery”).
This record is “probably the most political recording Jars ever did. These songs express band's very personal impressions about what is going on around in modern Russia. Witch-hunting against the anarchists, social activists and journalists, domestic violence, police violence – and political ideology from the stone age, which covers it all up. <…> A cop in this song is a person striving to keep status-quo, not a representation of a certain professional occupation.“ - Antona Obrazeena of Jars
DREARE: robust, monolith, coming from the everywhere and nowhere – their distanced drone sound grabs you and pulls you down to the ground.
Recently this massive Czech band released an experimental one-track album "Portaali", a collaboration between them and another drone ambient artist IZANASZ followed by 40 pages long art book. Powered by SlashDashBackSlash.
DREARE will be on tour together with ZEUG October 2019.
Do not miss this sonic experience.
Already next Thursday the hypnotizing Ukranian trio H.Soror (who's last album was recently released by OFF Record Label) will enter Barkett’s green stage in Berlin - join them in this trip on the 27th of June!
"...plowing a constricted furrow with great effectiveness at the juncture of rock, metal and jazz." (c) All About Jazz
The latest album of JARS and two releases of RAPETAPE have been reviewed in the fresh issue of Ox-Fanzine:
JARS - ”…was für ein Noise-Bastard aus Moskau! <…> Drecking, düster, laut und Noise auf einem anderen Level.”
RapeTape - ”Wunderschön, ziemlich entrückt und erfrischend nicht nah am Puls der Zeit, eines Trendes oder sonstwas, das man schon hundertmal zur Genüge gehört hat. <…> Sehr fein und der Suche wert.”
We are very happy to announce the comeback of Novosibirsk post-punk stars PLOHO to Berlin on the 4th of November in Auster Club!
You can listen to their new LP “ПЫЛЬ“here:
BeyondBooking together with Schmutz Berlin present the very fresh official music video of JARS to the song “Е”. Don’t miss the show with RapeTape and Balg in Cassiopeia on the 1st of March.
Antona Obrazeena of Jars: “This is probably the only love song on the album, or better said, a song about its painfull absence. A sort of inner loneliness, which you can’t banish — the absence of the whole concept of ‘home’ and the impossibility to ‘come back home.’”
The nebolous trio H.Soror just released their new live EP from Electric Meadow Stoner Rock Fest 2018.
Drop in the groovy no-jazz soundscapes and stay tuned for the upcoming Berlin date!
RAPETAPE FROM KHABAROVSK SOON ON EU-TOUR TOGETHER WITH JARS:
READ HERE THE FRESH REVIEW ON “ДЖРС II“ -THE LATEST ALBUM OF JARS (DE):
“Im Laufe der 46 Minuten wird es immer hysterischer, wütender und das Tempo nimmt zu, bis das Album dann in einem 14-minütigen Massaker mündet, in dem sogar ein Saxophon sein Unwesen treibt. Danach ist es ein Wunder, wenn man nicht atemlos auf dem Boden liegt. ”
