Lucide – Multipolar Kolorit 2025 photos : Paul Andermann

Multipolar is a duo of artists based in Leipzig. Their performances weave together rhythmic tapestries, abstract harmonies, eco-dystopian field recordings and pulsating bass lines, creating an immersive experience that draws the audience into a hypnotic journey. Their moniker, Multipolar, mirrors the complexity of their music, reflecting the myriad influences that fuel their otherworldly compositions.

In this concert, the duo premiere their work Lucid, a four-part semi-narrative piece guided by melancholic voices that recount a fragile socio-biographical journey. Through fractured field recordings, unsettling rhythms and echoes of the past, Lucid confronts the fear of forgetting and the uncertainty of memory. The piece evokes the unease of returning to a place that feels both familiar and distorted, where clarity dissolves into strangeness and remembrance collides with the inevitable process of loss.
