A new weekly Sunday party called Exit launches at The Spice Cellar on Sunday November 3 with a headline slot from flamboyant Venezuelan-born, Berlin-based Aérea Negrot, who is signed to Ellen Allien’s BPitch Control label.

A sonic chameleon who sings in different languages just as she experiments with different musical genres, Negrot creates ‘oddball’ variations on house and techno that give her a unique niche in the clubsphere. Clearly not someone who is afraid to experiment, Negrot emphasises that “it’s so important to have artists that shake you out of your comfort zone. For me, conservatism, especially in art, is also a fear of showing true emotion and talking about the reality of your feelings.” It is a testament to Negrot’s abilities as an artist that she’s been remixed by the cream of the house and techno world: Ricardo Villalobos, Efdemin, Kiki, Philip Bader and tobias. Seeing her live will provide a first-hand experience of her formidable vocal abilities, which have been compared to Bowie – at his most ‘deranged’. Exit commences at 9pm every Sunday and runs till 3am. Having seen some of the forthcoming acts headlining Exit, it is safe to predict there are going to be even more technophiles calling in sick for work on Monday than usual this summer.
