♫ THE JAM CATS SESSION ♫
HEY, YOU COOL CATS!
The Jam Cats live session is a dancing jam session with a different opening band each time. It carries on the legacy of old jazz mingling live sessions and DJ sets.
We want everyone to have fun, dancers and musicians alike with a stage open for early Jazz, Swing, RnB, and other fun styles to dance to with a focus on Balboa since we are operating with Bellmer Balboa. However, we are a separate event and we often cross over between different sub-genres of jazz and swing.
The jam will be run by members of the Syncopation Society to ensure that the party flows, allowing everyone to dance,
or simply sit back and enjoy the music.
DISCLAIMER FOR MUSICIANS
Coming to the JAM CATS grants you free entrance. Just keep in mind that this is a DANCE EVENT and it implies being reactive and keeping your solos short and sweet. If you are up for it, be prepared to be reactive on stage. If you want to play, make it clear and talk to one of the musicians on stage to see when is a good time to step in. There's a piano on the stage with atmospheric amplification.
CODE OF CONDUCT:
The official restrictions are lifted for now, but we still recommend doing a test before you come anyway.
It is our aim to create a safe, respectful and welcoming environment for everybody. Within the Syncopation Society, we are working to develop an anti-racist and feminist common ground. Through self-education, we are striving to recognise and stop racist, discriminatory, sexist and homophobic behaviour, as well as other forms of social injustice. We want to remove the barriers established by economic inequality. Important to us is also that the venue of the festival is accessible for people with all kinds of physical conditions.
We want to celebrate diversity in all its forms. We invite you to do the same. We seek to recognise unconscious bias and act against obvious or micro-aggressions of others. As we might not be aware of everything, please help us and let us know if you are missing essentials that you need to feel included and comfortable, or if you experience or witness an unpleasant situation. We are always available for you.
As a collective made up of musicians, DJs and dancers the Syncopation Society feels deeply that it is vital, not only to give recognition to the creators of the music we perform and dance to but to also acknowledge the world in which they lived and the struggles they faced, due to historical and structural racism. We aim to keep educating ourselves on Black heritage. Avoiding cultural appropriation requires an amount of reverence and acknowledgement of history and context. This challenge is important to us in many aspects of life.

Join us for an electrifying night as RBL Berlin brings you another unforgettable edition of Alles Paletti at Crack Bellmer! We're excited to welcome two exceptional DJs, Akiï and Shannon, who are set to bring their unique and boundary-pushing sounds to the dancefloor. Prepare yourself for a night filled with fresh energy and unexpected sonic journeys that will keep you moving all night long.
Alles Paletti is the heart of RBL's party series, where our resident DJs and special guests dive deep into diverse soundscapes. This edition promises to be something truly special, with Akiï and Shannon leading the charge with their innovative and genre-defying sets.
RBL began its journey in 2012 in Turin, Italy, as an independent and non-commercial radio station by the banks of the Po River. Over time, our radio stream grew and reached Berlin in 2017, where we established a vibrant parallel reality within the city's dynamic music scene. Today, RBL operates from multiple European hubs, including Barcelona and Istanbul, each contributing to our mission of fostering creative integration across borders, art forms, and disciplines.

The Disco Express returns to Crack Bellmer, Berlin, for an evening of disco hedonism, debauchery and late night dancing.
Regarded as one of London’s “leading disco labels” The Disco Express has garnered big support from the likes of Nightmares On Wax, The Blessed Madonna, TSHA, Hifi Sean, Folamour and Dan Shake for consistent high quality original releases and edits.
Drawing inspiration from the energy of the 70’s New York and fusing it with the 21st century dance floor, The Disco Express parties are fun, inclusive, and where the good times take you deep into the night.
