At the end of March, Toro Y Moi performed live at Berlin’s Lido venue to a highly enthusiastic, not to mention sold-out, international crowd, promoting their latest album, “What For?”. I have been listening to Toro Y Moi since first introduced to his album, “Anything In Return,” released back in 2013 by Carpark Records, an album that suits my taste of a modernized, soft R&B and chill dance music mixed in with eloquent lyrics.

Demonstrate with rainbow flags and rose-colored glasses: dress up and march. Homosexual protest loses credibility when it’s more about exhibition skating rather than political messages. The CSD degenerates to a party mile – a celebration of clichés.
The photographs on the slide film by André Kirchner are showing the “enough is enough” demonstration in Berlin 2013 marinated for 2 weeks in (homophobic) Barilla Fusilli with Bolognese. Afterwards the analogue film was developed. The noodle dish eats its way through the protesting crowd. What remains is a candy aesthetic that disguises what has been struggled for same-sex love.
