C3D-E (live)

C3D-E is a Swiss-born, Berlin-based electronic music producer, DJ and sound designer. He is best known as one half of the hugely influential underground label Acting Press. His music spans ambient, leftfield house, breakbeat and dub techno and is a hardware based sound with a strong sense of detail.

Alongside PLO Man and All Rest No People, C3D-E was instrumental in founding Acting Press as a credible outlet for experimental, self-released electronic music. His work with PLO Man includes the highly regarded 2021 ambient house record public static v. which aligns with their mutual appreciation of hazy atmospheres, subtle rhythmic movement and immersive sound design.

Balancing the club side with a more inward-looking approach to electronic music, C3D-E is still exploring the territory between dancefloor experimentation and atmospheric music. The result is a sound that is as detailed and flowing as it is rhythmically compelling.

Originally from Kharkiv, Ukraine, and now based in Coimbra, she explores rhythms, whether imaginary, real, or created specifically for each occasion, with a particular appreciation for dub, techno, halftime, and their hybrid forms.
