Thursday 14/05
RITOURNELLE X TUNE
Haus der Kunst & Blitz Club, Munich
In collaboration with Various Others

In May 2026, the music series TUNE (Haus der Kunst) and the festival Ritournelle (Blitz Club, Münchner Kammerspiele, among others) join forces for the first time. Presented within the framework of the contemporary art festival Various Others, RITOURNELLE X TUNE unfolds across three consecutive evenings, establishing a multifaceted musical program at the intersection of art and club culture.

The opening of Various Others on Thursday, May 14, 2026, features two A/V concerts at Haus der Kunst by Authentically Plastic and Heith. Originally from Kampala, Uganda, Authentically Plastic creates high-velocity, radical soundscapes that fuse industrial club energy, experimental noise, and East African rhythmic structures. For this occasion, they will further develop an audio-visual performance especially for Haus der Kunst: Authentically Plastic presents Polycollision AV, feat. Tobias Raschbacher. The Italian project Heith by Milan-based artist Daniele Guerrini moves through spiritual electronics, deconstructed pop terrains, and ritualistic atmospheres. Across two remarkable albums released on PAN, Heith has defined the sound of a post-digital, neo-psychedelic avant-garde. He presents ESCAPE LOUNGE and will be joined by by multi-instrumentalist Leo Rubboli and lighting designer Bianca Peruzzi.

FRI 15/05 [20:00 - 23:00] > Room For Music < BLITZ Ritournelle x Tune w/ Authentically Plastic Tobias Staab Donation based entry. On FRI, May 15, Blitz Club hosts a special edition of ROOM FOR MUSIC: an intimate conversation between Ritournelle curator Tobias Staab and Authentically Plastic. In dialogue, they reflect on their artistic and curatorial practices while sharing formative records on the Blitz sound system, music that has shaped their trajectories. Tobias Staab on the evening: „I’m looking forward to revisiting a part of the history of RITOURNELLE during the listening session. I’ve been digging deep into my music archives and rediscovered many pieces from the last fourteen years. There are so many wonderful artists with vastly different musical approaches - and almost every one of these artists and tracks carries a story worth telling. I’m especially excited about Authentically Plastic from Kampala, Uganda, who will be bringing along the pieces that have influenced and inspired them. I’m very curious to hear what they have to tell.“

Room For Music : Blitz Listening Sessions in May

Start 20:00 (till END). (Nearly) every Thursday.
No presale. Donation based entry!

*** May Programme Announced *** artwork @anja.lekavski The closing evenings of our Room for Music series invite another eclectic cast. „Munich bass“ duo and soundsystem aficionados Schlachthofbronx bring their wide-ranging influences to the listening room; Authentically Plastic and Tobias Staab join as part of the shared Ritournelle & Tune weekend celebrations. and tue evening with Trikont, the world’s oldest independent label, Munich-based and now in its 59th year, takes the form of sounds, talks and conversations between past and present and cross music history, politics & a lot more, with labelhead Eva Mair-Holmes & Franz Dobler, who wrote the imprints biography in 2017. Their catalogue is famously hard to pin down, and that, of course, is precisely the point. ********** With Rooms For Music: Blitz Listening Sessions, we lean into something quieter and perhaps more radical. Across twelve Thursday evenings, we refurnish the floor at Blitz Club into a casual bar and hangout space, complete with special drinks, as local collectives, labels and community-driven initiatives take over to curate nights devoted not to dancing, but to listening.
Inspired by classic listening sessions yet firmly rooted in Munich’s present, Rooms For Music shifts attention to the B-sides and the details between the beats, reconnecting with our former format Before The Party Starts. 
 Each invited group shapes its own dramaturgy: from ambient excursions, artist talks and deep techno meditations to jazz-informed dialogues, post-punk reflections and beyond. We’re excited to see these ideas unfold and where the series will go!

The dancefloor becomes a seated space for concentrated listening on Blitz’s finely tuned sound system. Donation-based entry keeps it accessible.
Rooms For Music is dedicated to sounds and sonic expressions rarely heard within the club’s walls before we close our first chapter on the Museumsinsel.

Tonight is our monthly takeover of the airwaves by artists and DJs from Amsterdam and beyond: Echobox Presents w/ @___sennes___ , @authenticallyplastic @jazzdalia , from 19:00-22:00. SENNES Rotterdam based SENNES has quickly made a name for herself in the game. Fearless and boundary-breaking, she effortlessly flows between electronic genres. Known for her raw and groovy sound laced with an underground old-school flavor, she’s unpredictable yet always on point. Constantly redefining her sound SENNES is determined to leave a lasting mark. Authentically Plastic Authentically Plastic is a boundary-splintering artist and DJ from Kampala, Uganda. From 2018–2023, they co-founded and ran ANTI-MASS, a roving, riotous club night that carved out space for queer expression in a repressive climate. Their recorded music is informed by Northern Uganda’s Acholi electronic rhythms, early Acid/Industrial aesthetics, and Futurist thinking. It’s dance music that resists containment - dirty, greasy, and always on the verge of transformation. JAZZ DALIA Jazz her sounds are rooted in rhythm and heavy low-end. She draws inspiration from her Surinamese heritage to create dynamic and percussive journeys.

TBT me as a baby DJ, @nyegenyegefest 2019. Sketch by @uliknoerzer 💜🥺 Nyege Nyege’s 10 year anniversary happened recently and naturally I’ve been kinda emotional and looking back at my past journey and what this festival has meant to me personally. It’s really been a wild ride alongside some of the most talented and creative ppl I’ve ever met. Excited to see where it all goes in the coming years. ❤️‍🔥

My new album ROCOCO RUINE is out now. Immensely proud of this new project considering how hectic it has been in the past few years to find the space and time to create. Gradually losing Kampala as a long-term home has been destabilizing to say the least, and sometimes it has felt like being adrift in a world which is quite literally burning up. The events of the past few years have made a joke of any belief in music’s capacity for resistance, art was never enough to save us from the very real machinery of state violence. In the face of all these psychic disturbances the process of making this album nevertheless became a kind of ‘compensatory anchor’ for my super volatile life in the past year, and in the process, I think my attitude towards repetition became more generous, more ‘sympathetic’. “Raw Space” was very much about ungrounding, about chance, and shaking up patterns..…it feels like Force is somehow more dominant in that body of work…..which I see as necessary in trying to escape power, and create the kind of world you want. But then again, a work doesn’t need to be constantly propulsive to have force or intensity, there are conceptions of intensity and force that are more about “spread”; arraying oneself, seeping into the walls. With ROCOCO RUINE I wanted to do something not “softer” per se, but more diffuse in this way… So here you have more consistent repetitions serving as the stable ground on which feverish melodic hallucinations are unfolding…Something in the atmosphere changes and you feel like you are now in the presence of Madness…..but the repetition is always there to catch you.
