Mark Angelo

After a brief stint as a cleaner at the Gillette factory, Mark Angelo Harrison traded his mop for a pen and moved to London, immersing himself in the DJ and art scene. While working at a print shop, a late-night experiment with a laser copier led to an unexpected revelation—an ammonite’s spiral became a symbol of life, evolution, and chaos. Inspired, he left his job to co-found Spiral Tribe.
Today, Mark is a writer, photographer, and artist.

Feenix 13

Feenix 13, a founding member of Spiral Tribe, was key to event organization, design, and décor. She shaped the sound system’s visual identity, creating flyers and conceptualizing event spaces. She also coined the term "Teknival," now synonymous with the underground movement.
In the late '90s, she played a similar role in Sound Conspiracy and embraced video as a design tool. Since 2000, she has been the resident designer for Audiotrix and specializes in digital imagery and animation for live VJ mixes.
Today, as SP23’s VJ and lead graphic designer, her digital remixes of archetypal imagery define the collective’s unique visual atmosphere.

Kamp.Artcore

A artwork maker and hard worker, Kamp.Artcore is the persona behind Tekquinox posters, visuals and stage installations. Close together with Gruta he's been growing our portfolio for visuals impact and growth on the cultural aspect of the Free Party scene. Also a DJ and VJ, he's an instigator for events and new connections thru art and creativity.

Ixindamix (dj set) [Audiotrix/SP23]
@ TEKQUINOX - 29th of March

AUDIOTRIX / SP23

"Before meeting Spiral Tribe in 1991, Ixindamix lived on the road with a horse and cart and moved across the British countryside with the horse-drawn travellers. Whenever she found a good site for a party she’d give the Spirals a call and the sound system would be magically spirited in.

Ixindamix began her musical career in 1992 after leaving the horse-drawn and joining the Spiral’s convoy of matt black trucks. Collecting records with an irrepressible energy, she quickly became one of the sound system’s central performers. With her DJ sets filling floors week after week, she began honing her synthesiser skills in the sound system’s mobile studio. The resulting livesets rapidly became popular in countries all over Europe, and she became well known for her tantalising analogue improvisation and twinkling frequency mischief.

Co-founding the Audiotrix record label in 2000, she has steered it to a position of respect and helped break a stream of new artists on the label. Adding an online digital and vinyl shop to Audiotrix in the last two years, she is a pivotal figure in the European scene.

Today, Ixindamix plays at international events every weekend while working in the studio through the week. Injecting charisma and sparkling personality into every set, her ability to whip a dancefloor into sheer euphoria has made her highly sought after across the continent. "

Mickey Meltdown (dj set) [SP23]
@ TEKQUINOX - 29th of March

"Meltdown Mickey began DJing in 1989 at some of the early UK warehouse parties. As an original member of the Spiral Tribe sound system, he became well known for his distinctive morning sets. Often seeing in the dawn, he smoothed the harder sounds of the night out into the warm, rolling grooves of sunrise. He was also a key player in pushing boundaries ever further and was at the head of the convoy of tank transporters hauling decommissioned Mig fighter jets out of Berlin to make the first inroads into the Czech Republic

He has played at a variety of major events and festivals over the last twenty years including Nordik Impakt and Glastonbury. In 2000 he co-founded Audiotrix, and his influence in sourcing talent and developing artists has been essential to the label’s success. Running much of the label’s logistics, he helped launch its record shop arm in 2011.

Meltdown Mickey’s deep, funky sound has gained him international recognition over the past 20 years. Today, he brings a depth of soul to the mix that is both fresh and eternal."

Feminist Roundtable @ Colectivo Fuso - 29/03 - 15h-17h

SP23 x Gruta x A BELA Associação x

We invite you to a conversation/debate about women's space in the Free Party, one of the activities included in the Spiral Tribe Exhibition programme.

We feel that this is a fundamental issue in our lives and one that needs to be explored in greater depth, especially nowadays, when discourses are increasingly polarised. That's why we want to count on your participation - we believe that the exchange of ideas, experiences and reflections is essential to strengthen this debate. Together, we can build a serious critique and think of strategies to confront these oppressions. Because together we are stronger!

We can explore themes such as:
* The women's revolution in the Free Party movement
* What does the concept of Free mean in practice as ravers?
* How can we make spaces safer and truly free?
* How can we bring Artivism into music and its other varied expressions and what is its importance?
* The strength it brings and how it differs when there is the study, elaboration and handling of the Sound System itself in a collective.
* And whatever else we fancy...

29 March - 15h00 - 17h00

Coletivo FUSO - Cultural Association, 2830 - Barreiro
Lavradio Station, Barreiro

This space is an association, and we ask everyone who visits our space to become a member, at the cost of an annual membership fee of 3€.

Bad Girlz (live) [SP23/ AUDIOTRIX]
@ TEKQUINOX - 29th of March

"Ixindamix’s (Ixindamix) slamming beats, bleeps and basslines and Sim Simmer’s (Simone Sim Simmer) soulful melodies and cheeky raps make a unique effervescent tonic of all things electronic, real and ridiculous. These raving mothers with attitude have been refreshing huge crowds across Europe for 10 years.

With roots firmly embedded in rave culture – their immense European fanbase makes them a guaranteed wowing floorfiller, consistently rousing crowds across Europe from Barcelona to Boomtown, Glastonbury to Rome."
