CTM 2025: 33
Returning to silent green in 2025 for their 25th edition, CTM Festival brings a host of adventurous and transgressive concerts once more. Concerts, performances and multisensory experiences from avant-garde music ensemble 33, Heinali and Andriana-Yaroslava Saienko’s reimagining of Hildegard von Bingen, the genre-defying These New Puritans returning with their first LP since 2019, the Egyptian composer Yara Mekawei and Spooky-J —the British electronic architect behind Nihiloxica’s rhythmic force—bringing the raw intensity of traditional Bugandan percussion with the throbbing pulse of underground techno.

A multisensory experience that smears the lines between concert and performance art, Berlin-based music ensemble 33 emerged as a collaborative force between artist-filmmaker-musician Alexander Iezzi and experimental composer-performance artist Billy Bultheel. The duo craft a mutant vision blending experimental soundscapes with classical elements and draw from an eclectic mix of musical collaborations.
Concerts at Kuppelhalle
Program: TBA
Festival passes are on sale now, along with further program details. More acts, and event details and tickets will be released as of December.
For 25 years, CTM has been highlighting new strains of underground club culture and art that ventures through the weird, the challenging, the cathartic, the esoteric, the contagious, and the ecstatic – simultaneously exploring sonic histories, contexts, and political and technological entanglements.
