Just last week, the WHO officially declared the pandemic over. But while restrictions for concerts and festivals have been lifted for a while in most parts of the world, some things haven’t gone back to normal. The Home Again festival in Berlin tries to take these changes into account. Kikelomo talks to organiser Nils Gelfort and artist Cinthie who is set to play at the festival later this month. Plus: Vice might go bankrupt, Skepta and Jammer start a house label, Timbaland coops with Biggie’s AI voice, who did and did not go to King Charles’ coronation – and this week’s recommendation comes from Mor Elian calling in from in between Berlin and LA.
