The Goethe-Institut Thailand invites you to SIANG เสียง, a one-day electronic music festival for all ages. Doors open at 3:00 PM, and from 4:00 PM to 12:30 AM three stages run side by side: the club in the hall, an open-air stage on the forecourt and a listening garden.

Efdemin (Dekmantel / Ostgut Ton), a Berghain resident since 2006, plays his first show in Southeast Asia: a two-hour sunset set on the open-air stage from 5:30 PM. CYRK, the Berlin duo rooted in Detroit techno, closes the night in the hall. The duo has played Panorama Bar, Tresor and Tokyo’s Womb and releases on Gerd Janson’s Running Back. They play a live set on hardware, then a DJ set.

Takeovers by Mixmag Asia and Bangkok collectives run on all three stages. Mixmag Asia opens the open-air stage at 4:00 PM with RomRom, and NON NON NON follows in the hall with an open-deck set; its DJs include Takky and Eizu 映図. From 4:30 PM, SYNAP[home/lab] curates the listening garden. After Efdemin’s set, Kangkao takes over the open-air stage at 7:30 PM with its residents Payu, Jakrin and Mo, who play house, techno and electro. Also at 7:30 PM, elekhlekha, the Bangkok-born, New York-based duo of Kengchakaj Kengkarnka and Nitcha Tothong, presents a soundscape performance in the hall. At 9:00 PM, Mixmag Asia returns for a second takeover in the hall, and SYNAP[home/lab] ends the open-air programme with a live set. From 10:30 PM, CYRK plays the hall until 12:30 AM. All day, digital artworks are on view: by elekhlekha on the forecourt and in the garden, and by CRSRCRSRRR, presented by SYNAP[home/lab], in the courtyard.

Stay all day. Ten food stalls and bars spread over the green, shaded grounds, with room to sit between stages. Treat yourself to mulled wine, or to festival specials from Singha and Paulaner.

Come with your family. From 3:30 PM, booths by mind.music.space x Klangkunst, 409 Music Academy, TYOY, SiamModular, Cornea Cochlear Club and others let visitors of every age try synthesizers, modular systems and DJ equipment. Until 6:00 PM, the booths and short workshops are geared to children and young people.

Workshops. At 8:30 PM, Ritual Rhythm Series gives a talk and workshop in the library, open to all and aimed at visitors with some DJ or production experience. Earlier in the day, CYRK leads an advanced live-performance workshop for participants selected through an open call ; applications close on 23 November.

The festival grows out of layerslevels, the club series run with SYNAP[home/lab] that has brought DJs and collectives such as S.U.P Bangkok, Krit Morton, Club Mascot, Sweed, Pam Anantr and NON NON NON to the Goethe-Institut. It also builds on music-workshop and live-coding programmes with SYNAP[home/lab], Cornea Cochlear Club and elekhlekha.

SIANG takes the date of our Christmas Market, which returns in 2027.

In cooperation with Mixmag Asia, SYNAP[home/lab], NON NON NON, Cornea Cochlear Club, Ritual RhythmSeries and Bangkok Community Radio. Supported by Singha Corporation and Paulaner.
