For this edition, Arcane XIII returns to Crack Bellmer for a new ritual through hypnotic techno, deep grooves, psychedelic textures and darker electronic sounds.
Arcane XIII is a Berlin-based collective and podcast series, exploring underground electronic music through tarot, moon cycles, rituals and symbolic storytelling.
This edition is dedicated to La Mort (aka Death or La Muerte) of the Tarot de Marseille, the card of endings, transformation and the beginning of a new cycle. Taking place under the Scorpio Sun, traditionally linked to Pluto, the night moves through themes of intensity, destruction, regeneration and rebirth. A portal between worlds, where something is left behind so something new begins to emerge.

their own biography
the whole biography
Pamela's sound moves in shadows, merging dark, ethereal atmospheres with pulsing groove and emotional gravity. Her work is rooted in intention, creating sonic journeys that invite deep connection, both inward and collective. Shaped by the emotional landscapes of Chile, the quiet introspection of Copenhagen, and the raw openness of Berlin, her sound is a synthesis of atmosphere and instinct. These influences merge fluidly, forming a sonic language that is immersive, restrained, and emotionally focused. Influenced by a deep sensitivity to emotion, memory, and the unseen, her work explores themes of nostalgia, melancholia, inner transformation, and the mysteries of the unconscious. Her creative process is guided by intuition and a sense of inner structure, shaped by symbolic patterns, natural rhythms, and the cyclical nature of experience. Her music unfolds organically through feeling, crafted to hold space for healing, reflection, and a connection that resonates on a soul-deep level.Recently at Giri, Crack Bellmer, THF Radio / Torhaus · often with Reita D Russo, GLIA, Daniela Fuzz, none of them here on Thursday
