8MM and S/L proudly present the interdenominational dub stylings of Devon Rexi, for an intimate Berlin stop in the midst of an extensive cross Europe tour. -- Devon Rexi is formed by a core trio of Nicola Reverda (Nicolini) on drums and vocals, Nushin Naini on bass and vocals, and Goya van der Heyden (La Rat) on samples and effects. In this formation, they skirt and flirt around a motorik kraut-rock mentality with an indubiously dub-laden physicality and an uncategorisable sense of experimentation. The shifted realities of Devon Rexi’s songs arrive like quantum conjurings, as if their frequencies are echoing from the furthest wormholes of space. As much as they create something fantastical and yet-unheard, their priority is in understanding vulnerability and friction, reality and fragility, mythologies and everyday resistances. They do this artfully and honestly through an almost deceptively simple arrangement of percussion, bass, and melody. Following two lauded EPs on cult label South of North—Tambal (2022) and Biya Ba Man (2024)—Amsterdam-based interdimensional dub group Devon Rexi are preparing to release their much-anticipated debut album, recorded by and featuring the elusive 5 Gate Temple devotee, musician and producer John T. Gast. -- Doors: 19:00 Show: 20:45 Aftershow DJ tba.
