“African Beats & Pieces” is an event series in Berlin dedicated since 2017 to the music made in Africa and throughout its global diaspora.
With a focus on lesser-known artists, we strive to showcase the diversity of sounds and songs African and Afro-diasporic musicians have to offer, doing so through theme-specific parties involving passionate DJs & diggers.

For our third shindig this year, we amp it up a notch and try out a fun new concept: the party’s speed will accelerate through the night, increasing by 10 BPM per hour. We curated a line-up with different DJs each hour whose style & selection match the speed range.
Join us on this dancefloor journey to get up to speed with the latest exciting non-mainstream songs and sounds from Africa and its far-reaching diaspora!

Ami aus Versehen
Marlene Bellissimo (stage name Avelo) is a Berlin-based comedian who makes videos about her life on Tiktok and Instagram. In her first monologue “Ami aus Versehen” she talks about her experience of growing up as a boy in the US, moving to Berlin as an adult, her transition as a trans woman and what it means to feel “in-between” in a tense political time.
