ARTISTSFeastingBerlin (DE)
Feasting (Miguel Jara, he/him) is a chilean-born queer DJ and LGBTQ+ activist based in Berlin for more than a decade. His music makes visible the queer roots of electronic dance music and aims to position the dancefloor as an engine of social change. He understands the raving experience and the labor of a DJ as a political phenomenon. His spectrum of sounds has a broad understanding of deep, progressive and power house with a strong energy and remarkable Latin American influences. In 2020, he and his queer family founded the collective and party Coven, his current residency and main project, an event that has gained respect and recognition in the Berliner underground, regularly happening at Berghain Kantine and focusing on artists from the global south and migrational backgrounds. Since 2017, he could be seen playing at Berliner queer events like Gegen at KitKat Club, Members, Lecken, and the Teddy Awards. His music also brought him to the Midsumma Festival in Melbourne, to his hometown Santiago in the middle of the social uprising of 2019, to the heart of the Brazilian carnival with Cardume in São Paulo, and to other European cities like Madrid, Bilbao, Barcelona and Lisbon. This year, the uruguayan label U’re Guay Records released his first track with his duo project The Midnight Service. His first EP will be released in 2024. Interview & mix for Kaltblut Magazine
